Faithers – who are they and how do you become one?
Faithers (my word) are those who walk by faith and not by sight (II Corinthians 5:7). They’re the ones that Hebrews 11 speaks of – the heroes of faith, the ones who will eternally be in the Hall of Faith.
2 Corinthians 5:7 (KJV) 7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
So, how can we become faithers? How do we walk in the faith of Abraham, Moses, and Joshua? By walking in God’s Word!
Remember Romans 10:17 (KJV) 17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
You first have to develop your faith by planting the Word of God in your heart: hear, study, meditate, confess, and act on the Word. That’s how you plant it into your heart (spirit) where it can grow by continuing to hear, study, meditate, confess and act on it.
Don’t be discouraged because you think everyone else has more faith then you do. We all start out the same – one lump, one measure.
Romans 12:3b (KJV) 3 … according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
What we do with our measure determines how much we grow and develop in our faith. Becoming a faith giant is do-able for everyone who puts forth the effort. And the rewards are beyond measure. Go for it!
Hebrews 11:6a (KJV) 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him:
