Faith bridges the gaps!

When we face certain situations in life it may feel like we are standing on the edge of a cliff with a great chasm between us and the other side (our destination).  That does not mean that we have to muster up some faith to blindly take a giant leap to get to the other side.  We simply need revelation of God’s Word.  Why?  Because God’s Word bridges the gap! The Word becomes a bridge; a firm foundation that we walk on to cross over to the other side.  We walk by faith according to what the Word says by taking one step at a time and by keeping our trust and focus on God. Isn’t that simple?  Therefore, faith is not like stepping out off a cliff and trying to believe that God will catch us. Faith is a tangible substance and when it is based on God’s Word, it grounds us.

Faith is a Firm Foundation

Heb. 11:1(KJV) Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Substance means: that which has actual existence, confidence, firm trust, and assurance

Evidence means: proof, conviction, title deed, receipt

Faith based on God’s Word as our foundation will keep us firm and steady.  Therefore, when the Word says that we are not barren, that we will not miscarry, that we are fruitful and that we are healed, then it is our evidence and proof that we have those things. 

To conclude this brief message on faith remember that faith enables you to believe for the outcome you desire.  It is what you have until your answer arrives.  When your faith has come and grown from the Word of God and from your relationship with Him it will be strong and steady.  This will enable you to continue to walk by the Word and not by your feelings, emotions or what your circumstances dictate to you.  It will draw your answer to you and it will be just a matter of time and you will walk in and possess what is yours!
