Are you a receiver of God’s Word?
Romans 10:17, “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”
True Christian faith comes by knowing and receiving the Word of God. So what are you receiving in His word right now? Have you received His Word about the forgiveness of your sins and your justification (being made innocent by His Blood)? Or are you still carrying a load of guilt and shame, wondering if you were to die, if your sins are truly forgiven? It is vital that we receive what God’s Word tells us about the forgiveness of sins, and so many other things that are important to our victorious life here on earth.
Do you really believe what God’s Word has to say about you, and the person that you are in Christ? If not, then you will always live below the level that God has called you to live. Your faith will never be where it should be, and evil spirits will enjoy the leverage that the strongholds in your mind are giving them.
We need to boldly receive what God’s Word has to say, so that we can have the faith necessary to receive the good things that God has for us, and live out the victorious life that God planned for us before we were conceived!
