DON’T FIX IT FAITH IT
Brother James, OIC
Mat 21:22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Have you ever had a problem in your life and when you tried to fix it matters only got worse? Have you worried and fretted over something waiting on an answer from man and in the end it wasn’t any real help at all? God doesn’t want us to worry and be depressed over life’s circumstances. He wants us to trust Him and allow Him to take care of things.
Mat 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
You have to understand what you are seeking in order to find it. The Kingdom of God is a reality here and now, Jesus says it doesn’t come by observation:
Luk 17:20-21 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
This Kingdom we are to seek, you will find is within you. It must be developed, you must be Born Again From Above. This Kingdom of God is not a theory it is the Spirit of God and His Christ in you:
1Co 4:20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.
1Co 1:24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
The Kingdom of God is found within the Fruit of the Holy Spirit:
Rom 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
Gal 5:22-25 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
It is within seeking His Righteousness wherein real victory will be ours. So many relate this Righteousness with their own goodness or what they do or don’t do but it isn’t. What it is, is Faith in Christ (Gods Power Within).
Rom 4:3-7 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
Rom 3:22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
Righteousness is by Faith and Faith alone of what Jesus has done for you. And what He has done is deliver to you all of Gods Promises which are received miraculously through Faith in Christ.
2Co 1:20 For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
And it’s the Promises of God that takes care of you and your life’s circumstances, if you will only believe.
