THOUGHT FOR TODAY
APRIL 3, 2016
POTENTIAL VERSUS TRUTH
The first step of all obedience is not taken in strength, it is initiated by our love and trust in Him. The strength received comes AS we walk, the trust to obey comes as our history with Him grows through the medium of obedience. They that obey their God are strong in their God. A faith that alters not our walk is like seeds that are never sown, deeds never done and love never expressed. Potential accomplishes nothing.
Faith for the future is sown in the deeds of today (Samuel 17:37).
“The way to be strong is to act on the credit of strength being given.
Strength is received in the act of obeying. When the path of duty is clear,
it is want of faith to continue asking for strength, and not to act upon it.”
