Message for May 15, 2022 from Pastor Shirley

Ephesians 2:8 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith — and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God
By grace God gives you His supernatural faith, as a gift.  Having faith to be born again, to believe in something you can’t see, to believe that a Man that you never knew died on a Cross for you and took every sin and sickness into His own body, and then He was raised to life again after being dead for three whole days.  That takes the God-kind of faith, and this verse tells us that kind of faith is His gift to us.                                                                                 
Romans 12:3 Tells us that every born-again believer has been given “the measure of faith”  Not just any measure, but the measure. We all get the same faith when we believe.                                                                      
Faith is not a balloon we pop to use in emergency situations.  Faith is a way of living every day life as sons and daughters of God.  Everything God does for us is accessed through faith. Faith is what brings the things God has provided for us from the spiritual realm into the physical realm                                                          
Heb. 11: “Now 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 [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses]”.
