FAITH: Comes by Hearing the Word of God
Romans 8:19: For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.
FAITH: Comes by Studying the Word of God
The world is not waiting for the sunrise of evolution’s pipe dream. The pipe dream of evolution will never come true. However, creation is waiting “for the manifestation of the sons of God.” Creation is like a veiled statue today. When the sons of God have removed the outward covering of this flesh, creation also will be unveiled. What a glorious day that will be! 1
FAITH: Comes by Obeying the Word of God
Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. 1 John 3:2
What a difference God is making in our lives. He has adopted us as His very own children. He is working His plans out in our lives right now. We can not imagine what we will become, all because of His love and His forgiveness, and His grace, and His faithfulness. He is making us more like Him, day by day. He took us from the fashions of this world, and is transforming us into His image. Rejoice in that truth!
FAITH: Comes by Experiencing the Transforming Work of God
The great anticipation is for the glorious expectation of seeing Him for the first time, face to face.
FAITH: Comes by Praying with the Word of God
And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.” Revelation 21:4
Dear Father, I will kneel before Your Son as He wipes my tears…in Jesus Name. Amen.
