Faith: You Must Find Out Where You Are First

By: Pamela Romans (View Profile)

So how do you develop faith? Please first let us look at Matthew 4:4. You do not live by bread alone, so since the bible is the mouth of our Lord Jesus, listen to it. Read it. It is the written word. Every word in this verse and the entire bible is directive. Since we are trying to develop faith and find where we are in faith, we must realize this is how you must live. 

Also, if you were to read John 1:4 you would find the bible says, “this is” in that verse. Not it was or is gonna be; this is, which happens to be present tense meaning right now. So where is the victory? Again, I call it like I see it, not in the supermarket. Or we can call it Jane. So Jane is victory? Does Jane tithe, do bible study, go to church, attend Sunday school, try to learn? If I wanted victory, I think I would follow Jane around 24/7 and find out what Jane has. Is this making it clearer to you? 

I know I said don’t jump around, but let us go to John chapter 6, verse 63. Here in this verse, Jesus is speaking. He said it is the spirit who gives you life. Please look at the new version versus the old King James version. The word “spirit” here in this verse is not capitalized. What does this have to do with anything? See, I told you this is a long process. When you see “Spirit vs. spirit,” they are very different. Small lettered is the contrast between spirit and flesh. In this particular verse, it should be lower case. See there is never ever and from the beginning of time until the end of time will there ever be a conflict between the Holy Spirit and man. Yet the man spirit and his flesh will always, because we are human and have conflict.

 Okay, I know this is a long process and you want to know how to get to faith. Put your big girl panties on and listen to the word; absorb some things here, begin. Yes, begin with confessing right now and start off your day right.
