'The Agape Letters' to the House of Faith!

Volume 4 Chapter 7 Page 11

Monday July 16, 2007       1 Av 5767 (Hebrew 10th Month)

"Released Faith!"

 
"Catches God's Provision!"

 

Matthew 17:27 (New International Version)
 
(Jesus speaking)
"Then the sons are exempt," Jesus said to him. "But so that we may not offend them, go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth and you will find a four-drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours."

 

There are those times when God desires to 'Teach' me a Spiritual TRUTH in a 'WAY' which sometimes seems backward to my carnal sense of understanding.

The Apostle Peter was instructed by Christ to 'Release' his 'Faith' showing how God could 'Supply Provision' to a 'Need' which could be 'SEEN' only as a miracle.

'Obedience' to those 'WORDs' of Christ, 'Proved' more than anything else, the 'Sufficiency' of God's 'Faithfullness'.

The Apostle Paul would later write these 'WORDs' to the Believers in Ephesus,

Ephesians 3:19-20 (Amplified Bible)
[That you may really come] to know [practically, through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]!
Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams]

Although 'Ability', was never the 'ISSUE' in regards to Peter's experience as a fisherman,

The 'ISSUE' is 'Released Faith'!

God being 'At WORK' within me as a Believer in Christ, as HE was in the lives of Peter and Paul, then produces

'The Richest Measure of HIS Divine Presence'
'Fullness' of God, a greater understanding of HIS 'POWER', through Holy Spirit who reveals a much greater 'Truth', than my 'mere carnal knowledge' is ever able to comprehend!

More of who Christ IS to me!

          MORE like HIM,

                        I desire to be!!

                      Some day SOON, with HIM I will BE!!!

O'Lord, How Majestic YOU are in YOUR Faithfullness,
Proving that YOU are WILLing and capABLE,
to supply for my every need!
That my Faith be built ONLY upon YOUR WORDs of Life,
I must OBEY YOU in all my 'Goings and Comings'!!
For YOUR Spirit of 'Fullness and Power'
uses 'Sons' to carry YOUR message of Provision and Hope,
to all those 'Others' who owe a debt,
which without Christ can never be paid!!!

Hallelujah! HE paid my debt with HIS own Blood,
HE Released my soul and I will be Caught UP with HIM!!!
Amen!!!
