Faith Inherits Promises

Be imitators of those who inherit the promises 

through faith and perseverance.

Hebrews 6:12

This is a season where God is planting 

deep seeds of faith in our hearts,

that we might stand in the midst

of challenge and testing

and not waiver.

It is through faith that we inherit.

God has been helping me see that I must expect

to hear His words of promise where ever I go.  

 His goodness follows me.

Surely His goodness and mercy

follows me all the days of my life

Psalm 23:6

He has been giving me words of faith

everywhere I turn.

He spoke a word to me on Thursday 

about being one who attracts the promises of God.

On Friday two different people

gave me a word of promise from the Lord.

That is just not a normal occurrence--

unless He is establishing a new norm.

Or helping me see that it should be the norm.

I need to carefully listen for His voice 

and carefully shut out evil reports

and contrary opinions.

Be careful what you listen to 

for the standard you set 

will be measured to you.

Mark 4

I want to carefully listen to Him

so that the standard I set 

will be measured back to me.

My currency is faith and, 

to those who have, He gives more.

Lord, You are always speaking.

I want to hear Your goodness 

that follows me every day of my life.

You are extravagant, Lord, 

in Your goodness.

Abiding faith attracts promises.

I want to inherit all that You have for me

so that others might see Your goodness

and You might get all the glory.
