In His Faith

Romans 4:20-25 (ESV Strong's)

20 No unbelief made him waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he gave glory to God, 21 fully convinced that God was able to do what he had promised. 22 That is why his faith was “counted to him as righteousness.” 23 But the words “it was counted to him” were not written for his sake alone, 24 but for ours also. It will be counted to us who believe in him who raised from the dead Jesus our Lord, 25 who was delivered up for our trespasses and raised for our justification.


We have the written word that brings and confirms the promise of God for all who believe. We are given the same opportunity given to Abraham to believe God and place our faith in Him. The Lord calls us to another place that He will show us. It is in the light and life of God. 


We grow strong in the journey, shaped by our experiences and our relationship with Christ. We are being transformed into His image. 


It is God who provides salvation based on faith and welcomes all who exercise that faith, which is the only way to overcome our weakness and come to God.
