The Faith that is in Christ guarantees us victory; not only over our unfavorable looking past or our unpleasant-looking situations, but also over the source of all problem (flesh). It empowers us to take our eyes off things, off men and off ourselves—and thereby starves our fleshy (carnal) nature from thriving (Col. 3:9-14, 2Cor. 4:18, Rom. 4:19-20).
A believer hasn’t really surrendered his life to Christ-as long as he hasn’t truly surrendered the worldly life within his soul. The doctrine of Christ empowers us to do so; to thereby become kings of Righteousness and peace (Lk. 12:15-31, 1Tim. 6:3, Heb. 7:2)
Christ is the true economy for the soul of every believer who wants to escape corruption. In His Faith is a program of life and godliness that separates us from this world — and make us godly.
The Christian way is actually the way of Faith that is in Christ. It is God’s way of helping us become irresponsive to this world.
The Peace of God is an umpire meant to keep our heart and mind focused on attaining our eternal inheritance (God). We can attain it if we resolve to live by the faith of the Son of God; even until we overcome the temptation to settle for anything less than God (Phil. 4:7, 2 Pet. 3:14, Gal. 2:20).
Whenever we don’t fully recover from an unfavourable or painful experience, we won’t be able to respond to God from certain regions of our heart—until we keep the commandments or comforts of faith and love concerning it. As we see through the veil of peace that this world gives, journeying to inherit the peace of the Kingdom would become our new goal and meditation!
The more we can see things through the eyes or light constituted in Christ and God, the more tangible God’s righteousness would become – and the more peace of mind we would have. The peace found in Christ is a spiritually tangible commodity.
Seasons where nothing seems to be working outwardly are when the Lord wants to expose our fears and make us secured in Christ. Only then can we walk with the light of the fear of the Lord and seek to be eternally secured with God or with the fullness of His life (Deu. 8:2, Isa. 11:2-3, Eph. 3:17-20).
The only way to arrest the influence that mammon exerts upon our soul through the love of money, is by being introduced to a contrary influence or knowledge called the Faith of the Son, that promises to bring our souls to God or make us serve Him acceptably (Matt. 6:24, 1Tim. 6:6-12, Heb. 12:28).
The best asset that man has ever had and kept, is the will of God, and the worst liability that man has ever kept, is the will of man. And only by the light of Faith and Love that is in Christ Jesus can we trade the latter for the former (Jn. 1:12-13, 1Tim. 1:14, Ps. 119:35).
Fears and anxieties are born when we attempt to carnally respond to a righteous expectation or when we can’t trust in the ability of the Lord to bring to pass what He promised. And they would always cost us the peace of our heart (Phil. 4:6-7, Jam. 1:6-8).
Having loved us first, our Lord Jesus desires and deserves an unfeign love from us; a love fueled by His faith or by a constant supply of strength that can be fetched from the word that dispenses such counsels, and the following attempts to pay homage to this.
