Use Your Faith – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional October 21st

(Be A Doer Of The Word, Not Just A Hearer)

TO THE BIBLE: Matthew 17:20 ESV
“…For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.”

LET’S TALK
The Lord isn’t responsible for the evils or the mishaps that people experience; it’s not consistent with His nature. He is love personified; there’s no darkness in Him.

Whatever you may have suffered that’s inconsistent with the provisions of Christ in His Gospel didn’t come from God.

You’re responsible for your life—the things that happen with you. It’s about your faith and how you use it.

The Lord Jesus said in our opening scripture, “…Nothing will be impossible to you.” This is a sovereign declaration; so, the question is, what are you doing with your faith?

How are you putting your faith to work? The Bible says, “…My righteous one shall live by faith…” (Hebrews 10:38 RSV). Using your faith to deal with the crises of life every day is your responsibility.

The problem is some have made their faith void or of non-effect: “For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void and the promise made of no effect” (Romans 4:14).

Can faith be made void? Emphatically yes! In Mark 7:13, Jesus rebuked the Jews for making God’s Word of no effect by their tradition. “Tradition” here refers to your way of life, your culture, and the things you believe.

If these things are inconsistent with the Word of God, you make the Word of non-effect in your life, and your faith is made void. Your trust must always be in the finished works of Christ; live by His faith (Galatians 2:20).

How do you live by His faith? It’s by living the Word, being a doer of the Word. James 1:22 says, “…Be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.” Get into God’s Word today and do it! Hallelujah!

Pray:
Dear Father, by my faith in your Word, I prevail over situations and circumstances. The forces of righteousness, success, divine health, victory, and prosperity are activated in my life as I live by your Word, guided and inspired by your wisdom to fulfil your perfect will for me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
