But that no one is justified by the law in the sight of God is evident, for “the just shall live by faith.” Galatians 3:11
This is a straightforward instruction from God. It does not need any interpretation. You cannot circumvent this instruction through keeping laws or doing works. Religion will never give you the righteousness of God.
Living by faith is the only method to please God. It is a lifestyle that governs your every thought, you words, and your decision making.
Living by faith is trusting the promises of God and not what you see with your eyes. Your unwavering faith will fill you with the righteousness of God. Nothing else matters.
Faith is reaching out to God in prayer for your every need. You simply lay your needs on the altar of God and then let go. Your needs are in the hands of God.
God is your deliverer. You wait on Him with patience and thanksgiving.
Secondly, God wants you to listen to His voice with a heart of obedience. This is faith in action. God speaks and you obey regardless of the challenges of the world or lack of human logic. God tells you to move to a foreign country. You move.
God does not have to justify His instructions. He wants your obedience without questioning Him.
God is supernatural. He has power and dominion over the heavens and earth. There is no one like Him.
You and I cannot think or act like God. We have to live in submission to Jesus by faith. Commit your works each day to God and pray for wisdom. Invite the Holy Spirit to have authority over your life.
Don’t complicate your walk with Jesus through religion. Live by faith and respond in obedience to the instructions of Jesus.
