The Voice Of Faith VIII 110506

We need the understanding of how the voice of faith works, leaves on a freezing night

            once the sun hits them and expands the stem…off they come Ps 47:7

Zion……..The writer of Hebrews contrasts Mt. Sinai and the giving of the Law with the heavenly Mt. Zion and the blessings of grace in the church (see Ex. 19:10–25; 20:18–21; Deut. 4:10–24). He describes the solemnity and even the terror that were involved in the giving of the Law (Heb. 12:18–21). The people were afraid to hear God’s voice, and even Moses feared and trembled! God set boundaries around the mount, and even if an animal trespassed, it was slain with a spear (“dart”). Of course, God had to impress on His people the seriousness of His Law, just as we must with our own children. This was the infancy of the nation, and children can understand reward and punishment.

What a relief it is to move from Mt. Sinai to Mt. Zion! Mt. Sinai represents the Old Covenant of Law, and Mt. Zion represents the New Covenant of grace in Jesus Christ (see Gal. 4:19–31). The heavenly city is God’s Mt. Zion (see Pss. 2; 110:1–2, 4). This is the city that the patriarchs were looking for by faith (Heb. 11:10, 14–17). The earthly Jerusalem was about to be destroyed by the Romans, but the heavenly Jerusalem would endure forever

When the heart is not filled with The Word, the force of faith is not there, confession is

            only mental and will soon fail, seasaw analogy

Romans 7:24-25 8:1-2 faith filled words dominate the law of sin and death, ruled by

            Satan since the fall of Adam, but was redeemed by Christ

Daniel 3:16-18 “but if not” if you bow you burn, what you compromise to keep you lose

Daniel 3:23-29 the voice of faith spoke in verse 18, and this is what faith said, there will

            be a fourth man in the furnace, for the law of the Spirit of Life was loosed

Exercising our authority in the world of the Spirit

Colossians 2:9-10 we have been given the fullness of Christ, over principalities those in

            first rank ARCHE, and the word power should be authority

Colossians 1:13 translated NOW, to translate is to put into another language, this

            translation was into another kingdom, NOW

2 Corinthians 4:4 the god of this world has blinded them from the gospel of Christ, note
