FROM FAITH TO FAITH
For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith (Romans 1:17).
Understand this: the life you’ve been called to live is a life of faith, from beginning to end. Faith isn't something you switch on when there’s a need; it’s your daily walk. You were born into it. The moment you were born again and became the righteousness of God, you began a life that’s sustained, expressed and advanced by faith. This is your nature.
Some misunderstand what it means to live by faith. It doesn’t mean to sit idle, doing nothing and expecting things to happen. That’s not faith. Faith is active. Faith produces action. Faith responds to the Word.
When the Bible says the just shall live by faith, it means the righteous regulate their lives by the Word of God and not on the basis of sensory perception — what you see, feel, or hear. You look at everything from the standpoint of the Word. That’s living by faith. Your outlook, your choices, your actions are governed by the Word.
Faith compels you to act in line with God’s truth, regardless of circumstances. Also, faith doesn’t exclude responsibility. The Word teaches diligence and productivity. Faith doesn’t make you idle; it makes you effective. It’s the reason James talked about faith and works — corresponding action: “Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone” (James 2:17).
You’re the righteous, and the righteous live by faith. Therefore, keep growing your faith by learning more of God’s Word and putting it to work. The Christian journey is from faith to faith, grace to grace, and from glory to glory. Hallelujah!
PRAYER: Righteous and Holy Father, I thank you for making me your righteousness and for the life of faith you’ve given me. I walk in the light of your Word, making decisions and taking actions based on your truth. My faith produces results; I manifest your glory today, everywhere, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
