The Lord has been highlighting something to my heart and I think it is probably
one of the most important things for us concerning our relationship with the
Lord and progressing spiritually.
Romans 5:1Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through
our Lord Jesus Christ.
King James Version has “by faith.” The original has “out of faith.” We get the
idea that we’re going to have faith and by our faith we will be justified.
That’s not it. That is one of the things the Lord has been speaking to my heart
this week. It’s not our faith that is important; it’s His faith that is
important. The Scripture says God has given us a measure of faith, but we know
that a measure speaks of limitation (Romans 12:3). Therefore, the faith He has
given to every man is limited faith, and I think all of us have had situations
that required more faith than what we had. Our limited faith was not enough. I
believe that has been the doings of the Lord. As long as we can get by with what
we have, we won’t reach into the Lord for more. So He makes sure our faith comes
up a little short of what we need. There are two kinds of faith. There is a
faith that accomplishes things, and there is a faith that produces life.

DAILY MANNA - The Lord is Greater Than Our Unbelief
Exodus 34:5-6And the Lord descended in the cloud,
and stood with him (Moses) there, and proclaimed the name of the Lord.
6 And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, The Lord, the Lord God,
merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth.
The Lord is proclaiming a new revelation of Himself to us. We will know Him in a
way we haven’t known before. It is not that we haven’t known His grace and
mercy, but we are going to know it on a higher level. ...more

Words for the Young and Old
Regardless of our natural age, when we first open our hearts to the Lord, we are like newborn babes again. We are then exposed to a spiritual world we know absolutely nothing about. In fact, our spiritual eyes are not even open yet to this new realm of God's Kingdom. We have much to learn. But step by step the Holy Spirit will teach us how to live in this heavenly realm and grow into spiritual maturity.
