Promises Are What We Use To Bring In A Harvest Of Cities And Nations.
Hebrews 11:8-13
Hebrews 11:8-13 tells us that Abraham and Sarah received the covenant and, by faith, they left their country, their culture and their kindred. They obeyed and because of it, Abraham became the father of faith and birthed a covenant out of which you and I are blessed today. The entire New Covenant is based on the platform of the Abrahamic covenant. We need to know exactly what Abraham learned. What he learned in becoming the father of all them that believe, works the same for us as it did for him. God honoured him, blessed him and God is about to do the same for us. The question is, are we willing to accept and walk in what God is showing us, and to walk that way in faith? Just as Abraham had to walk in faith for what God told him in his generation, we have to walk in faith for what God tells us! Abraham got to see the land of promise, and we can see the fulfillment of God\’s promises! The Jews possessed their geographic inheritance and now they are back in it. Many of the promises to Abraham have already come to pass for the Jewish people. Those promises are what we use to bring in a harvest of cities and nations. Ask the Lord for rain in the time of the latter rain!
- Faith is another mark of those who are “partakers of the heavenly calling.” Jesus asked His disciples “When the Son of Man comes, will He find faith?” It takes the belief in what is hoped for and unseen to partake of the heavenly things.
- Faith is a diminishing quality in the Ekklesia. Many operate to the level that their intellect or the circumstances will allow them.
- Pray for the gift of faith and that you will be found in faith no matter the circumstances. (1 Cor 4:2)
- Faith worketh by love Gal 5.6. Ask the Lord to reveal to you what is His love for you and pray that the Holy Spirit will teach you to respond to His expressions of love for you.
