In the current situation that my country Venezuela lives in, they always ask me how to keep a smile in front of so much injustice that is lived day by day, but my answer is always the same walked by faith, that my almighty God will make his glory in this nation ... then I leave you with a short reflection of what it is like for me to live by faith.
Hebrews 11: 1-6 says. It is, then, faith the certainty of what is expected, the conviction of what is not seen. 2 For the elders obtained a good testimony by it. 3 By faith we understand that the universe was constituted by the word of God, so that what is seen was made of what was not seen. 4By faith Abel offered God more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained testimony that he was righteous, God bearing witness of his offerings; and dead, he still speaks for her. 5 By faith Enoch was transposed to see no death, and was not found, because God transposed him; and before he was transposed, he had testimony of having pleased God. 6 But without faith it is impossible to please God; because it is necessary that whoever approaches God believes that he is there, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.
The main weapon of the believer is faith accompanied with prayer, faith is a source of unimaginable power, of incalculable natural and spiritual personal benefits; we walk with Christ holding hands with him by faith we do speak, listen and receive the word by faith.
Faith is a gift given by God through his holy spirit that fills us with confidence and security that we can develop by living a life consecrated to God, placing all our trust in him who gave his life for ours, that divine being called Jesus, who at the price of blood bought us and freed us from the chains that bound us to sin; God through the Holy Spirit strengthens us in the faith when we live a life of holiness and in continuous communion with him and that same faith that he has placed in each one of us when we activate it, makes God move in our favor and pour out his grace with power. When we dwell in Christ Jesus and have an abundant faith in the same way it will manifest in our lives because we are his instruments and he lives, he lives inside each one of us and through his holy spirit he is in charge of doing all things because outside of he is nothing, nor can we do anything at all, since all things are made by him.
The righteous by faith will live the word says and all those great men like Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, walked by faith obeying God and Sarah herself being sterile and of advanced age saw the fulfillment of the promise made by God; by faith he obtained that miracle believing that he who did all things that has no beginning or end, the God and eternal father could also give him a son. As Hebrew 11: 7-13 says. Faith brings a total change to our lives because by faith we have believed in the Son of God and walk with him for salvation and eternal life by believing in his word and obeying it. Because we do nothing with believing and not fulfilling because when we fulfill the word we are working by faith.
Faith is undoubtedly necessary for salvation but we also need it to prosper, because God is the owner of gold and silver and according to the measure of faith that we have we will see the growth of prosperity in our lives; brothers we must dream big, we must activate the faith for big things because according to our faith we will receive, if our faith is great we will receive great things, but if it is small we will receive small things, we have to trust in what we are asking that we will receive it we have not seen it yet we are confident that what we long for will become visible in our lives; beloved by faith we have been transformed because we have believed in the giver of life in the son of God with the firm hope of reaching the crown of justice that the Lord Jesus Christ will give us, not deserving of it but that by grace and mercy of God we have been reached and reached for eternal life and not only for ourselves also for our children whom we love and we wish the best for them and the greatest satisfaction for a father or mother to see their children walking with Christ to contemplate, to savor the promise of God.
