THEREFORE IT IS OF FAITH

Romans 4:16 (KJV)

Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all.”

In the verses above this Scripture, the Word is telling us that being an heir of Abraham was never meant to happen through the law, but through faith only. If someone could become an heir through the law, then faith would be made void.

Thank God for the ability to believe in Jesus. Believing in Him has positioned us to receive all that God has for us, including being counted an heir of Abraham and all the promises that go along with that. Faith is a foundational doctrine. It is not a Pentecostal doctrine or a Spirit-filled doctrine. Faith is not a movement. Without it, you cannot please God.

Thank God we have the ability to believe God and receive from Him, and that we no longer have to practice the law in an attempt to please Him. As a matter of fact, it seems to me that even now people are trying to keep the law is a slap in Jesus’ face, saying that what He did is not enough and that they must add to it.
