VISION MUST SHIFT TO MOTION
- Anything that moves has to be powered something. In physics we call that energy. In God’s word, we call that FAITH.
- God has given to all of us the same measure of faith. “God has dealt to each one a measure of faith” (Romans 12:3 NKJ)
OPENING SCRIPTURE: “FAITH is the ASSURANCE (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things we hope for, being the PROOF of things we do not see and the CONVICTION of their reality [perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses]” (Hebrews 11: 1 Amp)
ASSURANCE
- Faith is the assurance, the guarantee, the confirmation, the title deed of the what you are hoping for. Hope is not wishful thinking but “CONFIDENT EXPECTATION”
- FAITH CAUSES YOU TO MOVE WITH ASSURANCE
PROOF
- Faith is evidence that you cannot see. It doesn’t come by exercising the five senses.
- FAITH CAUSES YOU TO MOVE WITH PROOF
CONVICTION
- Conviction that what you know is REAL although you cannot hold it, feel it, or smell it
- FAITH CAUSES YOU TO MOVE WITH CONVICTION
FAITH IS THE ASSURANCE, THE PROOF, AND THE CONVICTION THAT CAUSES YOU TO MOVE!
Luke 8: 43, 44, 48
A woman in the crowd had suffered for twelve years with constant bleeding, and she could find no cure. 44 COMING UP BEHIND JESUS, SHE TOUCHED THE FRINGE OF HIS ROBE. IMMEDIATELY, THE BLEEDING STOPPED
48 “Daughter,” he said to her, “your FAITH has made you well. Go in peace.”
- HER FAITH SHIFTED TO MOTION
- She was invisible to everyone else but Jesus. HE SAW HER.
- SHE MOVED WITH PURPOSE. SHE MOVED WITH VISION. SHE MOVED CLARITY
- She moved until she made connection
STATEMENT: FAITH MUST MOVE. FAITH MUST CONNECT. CONNECT WITH JESUS- THE SOURCE
