Armor of Elohim Part 5 - Faith
Faith.
We are told it is a shield. Its use has action associated with it, not merely mental assent. You do things with faith, not just sit there and possess it. So what is your faith based upon?
It is not a shield of doctrine, which is man’s words and ideas. It is not trusting in ourselves or our own ways and abilities to do things. These will not protect us from the enemy. It should be faith in The Most High Elohim, and that He will do what He says He will do. What does He tell you He will do? What does He instruct you to do? He always keeps His promise.
He has given us the Way to return (be reconciled) to a relationship with Him. That Way to follow is His Word made flesh, His Son and our Messiah, Yeshua. He was perfectly obedient to our Heavenly Father to the point of death, and following his example, we should be as well. After accepting Messiah Yeshua’s sacrifice, we should continue to walk in the instructions given by our Heavenly Father for how to live. As I recently heard said, "we will labor to be perfect in holiness." Our Heavenly Father always keeps His promise. Therefore obedience to Him is Life; disobedience brings the opposite.
Put on Faith in our Heavenly Father and His Messiah, Yeshua (Jesus).
Our Heavenly Father's Way alone is Truth and brings Life!
Your Life Matters!
Choose Truth. Choose Life.
