UNWAVERING FAITH
Brother James, OIC
1Timothy: 1:5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned (unwavering:
1Timothy: 9-11 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
Unwavering Faith is a heart condition that no matter the times of struggles, falls, weaknesses and backsliding this heart condition makes you right with God. Wait a second isnt stumbling and falling equated to wavering? NO!
Proverbs 24:16
For a just (righteous) man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.
Wavering has to do with the faithless it has to do with doubting Gods Word, His Promises, it has nothing to do if you are the called and elect of God. If through your trials even though you are unable to stand, you are in the fire you still acknowledge Truth in your heart. Not the called alone but also the elect. Temporal salvation the daily deliverance from our own weaknesses which are the snares of the world the devil uses to entrap us are loosed from us by the acknowledging of Gods Truth.
2 Timothy 2:24-26
King James Version (KJV)
And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
Unwavering Faith strengthens as we train and are trained by Gods Spirit to look not at the outward appearance of things but toward God Who delivers those of true faith in Christ Jesus my Lord!
The last two years in my life has been a roller coaster of testings, lessons learned, baby steps forward and landslides backwards in all these things God has been faithful and has kept me through it.
Truth spoken in Love produces Unfeigned Faith in those called to hear it. That Faith in turn Graces you and I to be the Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. We may still display the flesh at times but it is those times that we are about to be pruned and cultivated by God Himself. But the faithless are lost their flesh reigns supreme producing death.
It is my prayer today for all those called that are doubting their worth to because of backsliddings, for all who are being judged accused and belittled by the religious that you stop and look at yourself as God does through the Blood of Jesus and know that the Truth that is growing in you is douing a work that will strengthen and perfect you and deliver you and will at Gods appointed time make you to stand.
