The purpose of the Un-Packing of
“Believe” IN us, is, that we might be anchored in, and have (a sure) confidence
in, the One Who called us out of darkness into His marvellous light ...by the
hearing of “faith.”
[Pastor; 1 Peter 2:9(b); Galatians
3:2]
Our father Abraham did not stagger at (nor was he doubtful of) the
“promises” of God [Romans 4:20]; being fully persuaded (made surely confident)
that what God had promised He would fulfill; not just because God is able to,
but because of His covenant faithfulness. [Romans 4:21; Pastor]
Because Abraham believed God (the
response of faith), it was imputed unto him for righteousness ...resulting
in Abraham being called the Friend of
God.
[James 2:23]
The songwriter penned: AND HE WALKS (IN) ME, AND HE TALKS
(IN)/WITH, and THRU ME, AND HE TELLS ME I AM HIS OWN; AND THE JOY WE SHARE AS
WE TARRY THERE (spending precious alone time, in this relationship), NONE OTHER
HAS EVER KNOWN. [C Austin Miles]
ThenSingsMySoul:
STANDING ON THE PROMISES OF CHRIST, MY
KING,
THROUGH ETERNAL AGES LET HIS
PRAISES RING!
GLORY IN THE HIGHEST, I WILL SHOUT
AND SING,
STANDING ON THE PROMISES OF GOD.
[Russel K Carter, pub 1886; Ephesians 6:13]
