DAY 7 OF 7

THE SEED OF FAITH: FAITH AWAKENED BY LOVE

There is no denying the power of faith, yet it can stem from diverse sources and objects of devotion. Worldly faith is often fueled by motives that can drive us to new heights, but it originates from a limited source that are not sustainable. On the other hand, Godly faith is activated by the love of God, which is the ultimate source of power and sustenance. When we express and embody this faith, it becomes truly potent and transformative.

Faith has the ability to activate the completed works of Christ within our lives. This means that by having faith in the power of Christ's teachings and actions, we can bring them to life in our own lives and experience the benefits and blessings that they offer.

It's important to remember that faith is not something that we generate on our own. Rather, it is a gift that is given to us by Jesus Christ.

Faith activated and expressed and working through love is a powerful and transformative substance that can help us access deeper levels of spiritual maturity and connection with God through Jesus Christ.

SOUL PRAYER:

Dear God,

I pray that my faith in You would remain activated and expressed through love. As Galatians 5:6 says, it is not about circumcision or uncircumcision, but only faith that works powerfully through love.

Please help me to love others as You have loved me, to extend grace and compassion to those around me.

May my prayers be a reflection of this love, powerful and effective because they are rooted in Your love for all people.

Forgive me for any times when I have been more focused on religious practices and rituals than on loving others. Help me to remember that faith without love is meaningless.

Thank You for the gift of faith and for the love that You have shown me. I pray that my faith would always be activated and expressed through love, so that I can make a positive impact in the lives of those around me.

In Jesus' name, Amen.

SOUL REFLECTION:

  1. How can I ensure that my faith is activated and expressed through love, as Galatians 5:6 suggests?
  2. Have I ever focused too much on religious practices and rituals rather than on showing love to those around me? If so, how can I change that?
  3. In what ways can I demonstrate my faith through acts of love and kindness towards others, as a reflection of the love that God has shown me?
