always be on time, it's impor

running late. For every minute
you think you'll be late, give
two minutes warning. So if you

ahead so your colleague or cli

accordingly.

RIGHTEOUS ONES LIVE BY FAITH
So in this way the Scripture was
fulfilled: Because Abraham believed
God\ his faith was exchanged for God’s
righteousness. So he became known as
the lover of God.
James 2:23 (TFT)
What does it look like to live by faith? Our faith in God is
essential in navigating the rough and rowdy passages that all
of us go through. Living on planet earth can be dangerous.
Though you love the Lord with all your heart, you realize you
are not exempt from life’s afflictions. The Word promises
that though the righteous man has many troubles, the Lord
will deliver him out of them all.
The world’s wisdom complicates things, but God’s wisdom
is simple. When you have a problem, He wants you to come
and lean on the arms of Jesus and say, “Lord, fix it for me.”
You exchange your faith for His righteousness which is His
lovingkindness. Your relationship with God is real because
you live in the Lord and the Lord, and His Word lives in you.
Faith is the substance of things we hope for, the evidence
of the things not yet seen. Without faith, it is impossible to
please God. If Jesus inspected your life right now, would
He find faith in you rather than fear and doubt? If you can
trust in Christ for your salvation from hell, why can’t you trust
Him for the good things He wants to give you every day?
We exchange our faith for God’s righteousness when we
pray boldly before His throne. We do the same when our
words line up with our faith. Most importantly, we obey what
God is telling us to do. Miracles manifest in our life when
we follow the instructions of the Lord.
