Our
God gave life to Jesus after he died on the cross. Our God called everything
that exists out of nothing. We agree with Rom 4: 21 that we are “being fully
persuaded that God has power to do what he had promised.”
According to Rom 4: 17 he is “the God who gives
life to the dead and calls things that are not, as though they were.”
Faith
in a great, almighty God accomplishes several important things for the
Christian believer:
1.
Faith teaches us. It grows us toward maturity. It builds us up and makes us
stronger. As we exercise our faith, our faith grows.
2.
Faith exalts God. It glorifies his greatness. By trusting in God, we are
visibly expressing our confidence in his great, almighty majesty.
3.
Faith grasps the truth of God's word. Trusting in God brings us to the point
where we are enlightened and fully persuaded of the Gospel truth in the Bible.
4.
Faith enables us. It gives us possession of God’s promises. Faith expects from
our God everything that Jesus died for. He was raised from the dead to give all
we need, to God’s children!
I
know that the greatness and power of our God fully and completely compensates
for my weakness. Because of the Lord, even my little faith will grow, will
glorify God, will grasp God’s promises, and will enable me to own his assurance
of my salvation!
Bless
our great, almighty God for granting life-giving faith to me and you.
Thanks
be to God who called faith into our empty lives that we may be filled with the power
of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer!
Hallelujah!
