Faith Many times we say: "I believe in God, I have a faith!" In New Testament, in the letter of Jakob (James) we read:" You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that and shudder." so as we see, believe and to have a faith it is really different things. And what it means to have a faith? Yeshua (Jesus) said that if we will have just a small faith we can move the mountains (spiritual). So i hope youwill egree that before to say that we have a faith,first of all we must understand what it menas to have a faith. In the letter of Hebrew 11chapter 6verse we read: "and without faith it is impossible to please God,because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him." Many preachers,who are preaching the Gospel of comfort like to translate this verse and bond it to money,but in this verse God doesnt means money. But there is something grate what we will receive from God if we have reall faith. So let's see what it means-Faith. And of course we find the meaning of faith in Bible. Everyone knows that Bible was witten in hebrew language. So let's see what this word means in hebrew language. dictionary of Strong we find (strong 0530) faith- (hebrew) EMUNA-it menas to wait,to be devoted,to be brave and unshakable,to be honest and just. When we read about Moses that he left his hands in the time of battle, in hebrew language there is written EMUNA. Moses was creating new future with God. So to have faith (emuna) it means to create a different past, it means to have a relationship with God,to waiting for Him, to be devoted to His wordand to be honest and unshakable in believe. So when we wait Him,when we act like He said, when we are devoted and humble and unshakable God always answers us. That's why Bible sayd that without faith we can not please God. So i wish you to search your heart and if you will find that to have a faith for you means just believechange your mind and you will see the glory of Creator. Shalom to you.
“For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha Mashiah), that through He was rich, yet for you sakes He become poor, so that you through His poverty might become rich.”
It is so wonderful. You know there was millions of God in first century in Greece, Egypt and in roman belief. But non ofthat God did not came to earth to give his power and richness to save people. Only the Yeshua, Jesus, King of Kings and Lord of Lords came like a poor man and gave everything what He had, just to save poor people like you a me. When I say poor I don’t mean money, yes millions of people were and still are poor nowadays, but the greatest poorness is spiritual blindness. Bible says that we were like lost sheep,we were near to gates of hell but God mercy us in His only Son. He was the sacrifice lamb for you and me. it was the greatest example of Love. I know many religion, because I read about it a lot, I find many Gods in Egyptian theology and also in Greece but you know, non of them gave their life to save people. only Jesus. Yes I knowall of this God is just a imagination, but Jesus is different. Our king is different, He is amazing. He says that He is the king shepherd who will leave the 99 sheep to find one lost. Sometimes I want to cry when I hear how people said:” God don’t care about me, because I am so dirty” oh, If they only know How deep is God’s love to them. And sometimes I am so sadly when I hear that many Christian servants use Christianity to become rich. It is very fashion in nowadays to preach about rich life and about How God will bless you if you will give a lot money to church. Yes we must give money to church, but not because that we are waiting millions from God. Christianity is not a business project. God is not a bank director. Sometimes we are like greedy children who is only ask :” give me, give me. I will give you this and you will give me more.” Stop. It is not Christianity. It is not Love. Can you imagine if woman will married only because of money? Can you imagine how it would be hard for her husband?How it is terrible, to realise that your wife is with you only because that you will give her many and comfort life. God says that He is the husband of church and the only thing that He is waiting from His bride is Love and devoted. Yes God wants to bless us and He will do it, but in His own time and in His own way. God is not a santaklaus or magic mam. He is God of universe, He is the King of Kings and one day and very soon He will come back. Yes we must give to Himour life not only our money but first of all our hearts. Maybe our heart is broken, maybe in our heart there are many broken dreams and pain but God asks only heart and if you will give Him something else too it must be given by Love. Why? Because He give His Son by Love, because He loves us, and first of all we must Love Him. I don’t like to talk about people,because I do’t see their hearts, but I will never forget the words of mother tereza:” If God will stopblessing me and stop to give me His presence, I will still Love Him more than I love anything.” God bless you
I was reading the book of exodus, first chapter,there is talking about Moses, Israelites and the Jesus Navin and Qaleb. (maybe in english Bible names is different). God said to Moses that only the Jesus and new generation of Israel will enter to the holly land, because they didn't doubt about it in their hearts. Suddenly while i was reading God showed me that in our life there is nthe same situation many time. there is period of stres and doubt in our life, when our mind is thinking only negative and doubt about healing and blessing and a.t.c. In this period of stress our mind becomes confused. It seems like we are two person in one body. 1 person- unbeliever, always doubt and always cry, don't like to fight. 2person-always believes that God is strong and He is bigger than any problem. I had the same situation many times. And in the time of reading God showed me that we have to make a choice:believe and go,keep going by faith and trust Him that He is always near protect,or be like some unbeliever part in Israel-old generation-only cry and deny God, and think that we will die in our problems. God showed me that everything is about what choice we will make. If we choose life we will live, and if we choose die we will die. maybe before us there is a ocean of problems and broken dreams but if we keep going to trust God and do what He comands in His word, He will make a way even in the ocean for us. But if we don't believe that God is allpowerful and He bcan solve eny problem in our life we will just block Him in our life and our future will be without God and without victory. If we want to have victory, we must be close with God and believe. Believe means to wait and to be devoted. we must learn His comandment and follow Him, becaus He knows the way, He is the way and He is the Life. Shalom. God bless you. I.K
