DAY 6 OF 6

Faith - Our Individual Walk of Faith  

Thoughts on the Word

This is one of my favorite parts of this chapter. It talks about people who walked by faith - but they seem more normal, more like me. People who had great failures and yet God called them great people of faith (Rahab the prostitute, David who failed, Jephthah who was the son of a prostitute and others). 

Also, there were those whose faith enabled then to do great things. Others who had great faith - but lived lives that the world would call a "failure"- not gaining deliverance, victory or honor.

Faith is not living according to a standard set by men - it means living your life the way God wants your life lived. It is not copying the success of other people. It is not a set of things achieved. It is following Jesus wherever He leads you.

Prayer

Lord, you show us such a variety of people You call men and women of faith. You include people I would not mention. Yet they probably encourage me the most. Men and women who failed terribly, yet they learned not to let their failures define them. Men and women who through faith did great things and some who seemed to do little. Yet you called them great people of faith.

Lord, I want to be a man of faith. I want to let You define what that looks like in my life. I do not want to make excuses for inactivity nor do I want to have expectations set by men around me. I want to know Your standard for me. I want nothing more - I want nothing less. In Jesus name, Amen.

When we travel abroad, we need to make sure we have the right currency to trade with. Faith can be likened to Kingdom currency. We cannot trade in the Kingdom of Heaven unless we have faith. Plan Seven of Nine devotional plans taking us through Hebrews shows us just how key faith is in our daily walks with God. How does your faith account look?
