As is the case with many things spiritual, faith is both a force and a vehicle. And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for truly I say unto you, If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. |
In the above scriptures we see ample evidence that faith is a force. Notice that there is no qualitative intervention by the Lord in what faith accomplishes. But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that comes to the Lord must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.  |
In the above verses we see clearly that faith is a vehicle. It is substance and evidence. It is something that is necessary to please the Lord.
What difference does it make whether faith is a force or a vehicle or both? → Since faith is a force, it accomplishes things by the Law Of Faith and the Law Of Sowing And Reaping. These laws were ordained by the Lord and as is the case with all His Words, they accomplish the purpose with which they are sent. → Since faith is a vehicle, it takes a person from need to comfort, from poverty to prosperity
The point of this article is to point out that the Lord is not making decisions on what is accomplished by faith and what is not.
It is pleasing to the Lord when His children put His promises to work and operate in His Laws. If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done unto you. |
