This is devotional thought number 49 in our devotional series titled, “The Faith I Live By”
“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1).
Substance. Hope. Evidence. Faith. Get plugged in!
Faith is one of those principles that even if we don’t understand every nuance, we absolutely need to use what we do understand. We know that Jesus is the Author and Finisher of our faith. We know that Abraham had faith that YHWH would bring Isaac back to life on Mt. Moriah even though we have no record of resurrections before that time. We know that Moses had faith the children of Israel would traverse the Red Sea bed and not drown with Pharaoh’s army. We know Peter had faith to walk on water with Jesus; albeit for a short time. We know Jesus had faith that His Father’s will was supreme as He faced the dismal separation of His crucifixion. What is the common denominator in all these examples?
Let me see if I can give an example of how faith works. Think of a power cord. Is there any power in the cord? I guess it would depend upon when you ask the question, right? If there is a thick power cord attached correctly to your refrigerator, will the light come on and the interior reveal nicely chilled food and drink items when the door is opened? Again, it depends. If the power cord is attached to the refrigerator and wired correctly, it would also need to be properly connected and grounded to an external source of power. Assuming everything is all connected, the refrigerator that once had great cooling potential when its finely wired self lay dormant in the kitchen now lights up with energy and begins doing its job when it’s connected to current.
Faith is similar in some ways. Without faith we cannot connect to our Father. We cannot activate to do what we were designed to do. We will not be empowered to serve others. So faith has an incredibly essential role which must never be underestimated. Yet, it’s incomplete if it's disconnected from God or otherwise misplaced. Godly faith is the conduit through which all heavenly power and blessings move from God’s storehouse into our lives. By faith, we move from dormant potential to empowered vessels of glory.
Get plugged it.
By God’s grace, this is the faith I live by, let this be the same for you, in Jesus’ name.—L. David Harris (http://bit.ly/BQuotable)
