Faith

Steady, firm and trustworthy (mans trust confidence and reliance in God)
Through faith man is deem righteous
Faith is two dimensional a) Faith in the power/ ability of God b) Faith in the character of God. a) Aseity b) Eternity c) Goodness d) Graciousness e) Holiness f) Immanence g) Immutability h) Impassibility i) Impeccability j) Incomprehensibility k) Incorporeality l) Infinity m) Jealousy n) Love o) Mission p) Mystery q) Omnipotence r) Omnipresence s) Omniscience t) Oneness Providence u) Righteousness v) implicity w) Sovereignty x) Transcendence y) Trinity z) Veracity zz) Wrath
This points out then that faith is not the ability to get from God it is a tool used to see God and mimic or obey what s reveal to our senses. When we look at Hebrews 11 we see faith in action and not in thought along. Let’s pull Hebrews 11:6 Faith originates in man confidences in God which produces desire/hunger toward God and when Faith demonstrated/found in man it pleases God. Once God is please the thing that man is hungry for God feeds Him with manifestation. But the proof of man faith is that man is feed from His faith alone. Hebrews 11:1 says that Faith is not defined by I got it is defined by I believe I got it even when I have no proof that I have it. No wonder why Jesus rebukes the disciples in Mark 11 :20-24 .
So then watch this James tells us that Faith is used to to position you for labour. Faith withour works is dead. Watch this once Faith is stirred in you faith allows you to conceive. Once the baby is in you must feed it. Feed it with the word. Why? Faith comes/increases by hearing the word of the Lord. Some of you right now your baby is leaping . John 16:20-21 Show us that is the labour/work that brings pain. But the higher the pain levels are the more you can endure.

Pain Is Necessary (The Classroom for growth)

When I identify pain Im not talking about mistakes. Im talking about the suffering I endure because Im trying to obey God. Ive had some pain in my life. I had to suffer because I dared to be different. I had to suffer becuase I wanted more then what others wanted around. Ive been through pain. Aint nothing like watching people hate you with out a cause. Ive been lied on talked about miss treated. All because Ive choosed to change.
Change brings loss, and new surroundings, Change brings miss understanding but thanks be to God Matthew 5:10-12 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
The level of greatness you will experience has everything to do with how well you handle pain. The greater the level the greater the pain.
James tells us to REJOICE when pain comes. Im rejoicing because I KNOW THIS!!!!
I know that this pain this trail this storm God allowed not because the devil is threating to take me from my purpose NO!!! God has allow this to happen because He knows this is going to work out of thing that will keep me from handling the promise God made. This storm is perfecting me .
