DCLM Higher Everyday 26 December 2024 Devotional by Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — The Faithful Live By Faith
Topic: The Faithful Live By Faith
Text: Galatians 3:11-14
11But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
12And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.
13Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
14That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
Key Verse: “But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith” (Galatians 3:11)
Message
Every gift got from God is received by faith – salvation from sin, sanctification, Spirit baptism, healing and health. All are received by faith. Kenneth Hagin Sr., an American preacher, was born with a deformed heart (an incurable blood disease). When all hope was lost for his recovery, he had an encounter with Christ on his sick bed. On August 8, 1934, at the age of 17, he was raised from the sick bed by a revelation of “faith in God’s word.” He had a successful Christian ministry and died at the age of 86 years on 19th September, 2003. Absolutely, nothing is impossible when you live by faith. Faith in God makes all things possible.

Whatever you are going through right now in the area of education, family, health, etc. live by faith and not in fear, for fear leads to doubting the omnipotence of God and would attract no blessing from the throne of mercy. By trusting the Lord, all shall be well. A sinning youth cannot claim anything by faith. Be faithful to Christ for faith that works.

Challenge: Nothing is impossible through faith.
Prayer for today: Lord, help me to live by faith on daily basis.
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
