The Just Shall Walk By Faith
The just shall walk by Faith. This life of faith is it easy, absolutely NOT! To walk by faith is to walk in the present, to walk in the circumstances, to walk in the trial and to walk in the attack knowing that you win.
The just shall walk by Faith, to declare and say what God's Word says, instead of saying what is.
The just shall walk by Faith, every day until the end of this life, never drawing back, never backing off.
Is it easy, No! But as you do what Faith demands, like anything you do over and over again, it becomes what you do, and it becomes how you respond to the circumstances, the challenges, the trial, the attack.
I was thinking about this scripture, "The Just shall walk by faith." and was thinking how it is not an easy way of life. But then I thought about my neighbors whose home is full of chaos and fighting, yelling and just such an ungodly atmosphere. Although I may be going through one of the greatest tests or battles of faith gone through, I have peace, I have joy, there is love in my home. I pray for my neighbor. I call laborers to cross their path, the right one they may listen to, because it hasn't been us. They need Jesus.
A flicker of hope, this neighbor will turn her back if we go outside. She will avoid any contact with us. Today I had to take my husband to work earlier than normal. We were getting into our car and I looked up and she was walking to throw something in her trash, and she waved to me. I waved back. I drove away thinking, Lord, Your light has penetrated her darkness in a small way. I will continue to pray.
The just shall live by faith! What a great life to live by faith. Knowing no matter the trial, the test, the attack you WIN! You will be victorious, you will overcome, you will have a trophy!
Don't quit, don't back off, don't give up. Keep saying what God says about your situation. Thank Him, continue thanking Him. Especially when your head and emotions are screaming to give up to give in. DON'T!
You don't have to beg God. He's has given you everything that pertains to life and Godliness 1 Peter 1:3, so as your thoughts and emotions want to get the best of you, open your mouth, and just begin to thank Him, even if all you say is "Thank you Jesus" and you say this over and over again.
THE JUST SHALL WALK BY FAITH!
