The Nature of Biblical Faith


Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death... – Ps 23:4

Biblical Faith is not the denial of facts, but the refusal of that fact to define your reality.

A Believer who is diagnosed of a disease is not expected to shout back at the doctor. The doctor isn’t lying with that diagnoses. Nevertheless, life experience makes us to know that the fact that someone isn’t lying doesn’t mean they are telling the truth.

What is the truth? The truth is whatever God says in His Word.

Faith is not “fake it until you make it”. if you’re faking it then you obviously don’t believe it. Faith acknowledges the Facts, and then speaks Truth to the facts.

The Psalmist accepted the grim, despondent realty of the valley he was in; but even in that acknowledgment he affirmed the Truth of God’s word.

The Lord has said that He will never leave you, nor forsake you. (Heb 13:5). He has promised you that though many are the afflictions of the righteous; He will deliver you out of them ALL.

Hallelujah!!! That’s how biblical faith speaks.

Even if I walk through a valley as dark as the grave, I will not be afraid of any danger, because you are with me. Ps 23:4 (ERV) 

AMEN.
More Blessings await you today; you’ll not miss them in Jesus’ Name.
