The Just Shall Live By Faith

stevenmosoes (63)in #flaminghelpers • 7 years ago

The Bible declare that the just shall live by faith (Galatians 3:11), and also that without faith it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6). That means that the work we do are the works of believing, the works of faith.

"Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified" (Galatians 2:16).

This also means the primary work of the believer is believing in God. Anyone that believes in God and does His will will have eternal. The Scriptures says "...we have believed in Jesus Christ, not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified." Our justification is by faith and not by works, not by how holy you are, or how well you do the things of the spirit, or being a pastor or being an evangelist or being a prophet etc....

    God justifies everyone by faith in Him.

let no man deceive you that you have to do this and that before God can hear you prayer. Your faith in God brings all your prayer into existence. Always remember, the just shall live by faith. Its not by giving to the poor or making self efforts to be good. You cannot succeed at trying to be good all yourself. You cant make efforts to have eternal life all by yourself.

All you need to do is believe in your heart and confess the Lordship of Christ Jesus with your mouth. That's how you receive the God kind of life, and the only way to continue in that life is to live by faith.

See, when you have the life of God in you, you can't continue to live by your works. If you live by your works, you could go to God and tell Him, "Lord, You know I give alms to the poor, I don't criticize anybody, I am honest, I don't steal, "You did try to justify yourself and use all your works in the flesh as a basis for asking God to do something for you.

But God wouldn't accept that because He expects you to live by faith in him and His Word. By our works of the flesh we can do nothing but by the working of our faith, we can do all things, Hallelujah!
