Walking In Faith!

Free in Christ! What does this mean? The first thing of course has to be free from sin, because of the resurrection we don't have the fear of death. By faith we take hold of this freedom and look to Him who is able to be with us on this journey. When we need rest, strength, guidance, courage, whatever it is, we can be assured He will help us. Because we are human we will put our trust in something or someone, we will have faith that our jobs will still be there, that 401k is still working for us, we even depend on our bodies to be healthy. If you look around you will hear none of these things can be relied on. If you will go to Hebrews chapter 11 (the new king james version) you will find men and women just like us who had faith that subdued kingdoms, worked righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness was made strong, became valiant in battle, turned to fight the armies of the aliens, women received their dead raised to life again, the list goes on. They were people just like us, but they believed what God told them. It is not difficult to hear from God and He speaks to us in many ways. I just want to encourage you today with these words. Put your faith in Jesus, He is the same yesterday, today and forever.
