I want to talk to you today about ‘Now Faith’ for Living in the Now.
God wants you to live the abundant life and enjoy your walk with Him, growing in His grace and love and flourishing in your Faith. The bible talks about ‘ Now Faith’, because many times when you are stepping out in Faith, it requires that ‘Now’ moment where there is no hesitation but you are prepared and positioned to step out in boldness… to step out in Faith without hesitation because you are flourishing in the promises of His Word and your faith in Him is strong.
Hebrews mentions that Faith ‘is’ substance – that word ‘Is’, is a present tense word, meaning that ‘Now Faith’ is in operation. Not yesterday’s faith, not tomorrow’s faith, but today’s faith.
The bible reminds us that the just will live by Faith and Hebrews 11:3, reminds us that the Worlds were framed by the Word of God – The spoken Word of God.
Faith comes from hearing the Word. When you take the promises of God in His Word, speak them and declare them out loud… as you do, you hear the Word and when you hear the Word that you are speaking, faith is deposited into your spirit as you hear. It’s because God’s written Word becomes His living Word when you speak and declare it. His Word is alive and powerful.
Are you spending time each day in the Word, are you positioning yourself to receive His Word into your spirit? Are you growing your faith by hearing the Word? It’s like a surfer out in the water, he has to position himself to catch the wave at the ‘now moment’ and ride it, if not, he will get washed over the falls, scrambled and be swept back to the beach.
