Assurance Through Faith - October 17, 2017





1 John 5: 13

These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.


Today's Thought: If you want to be assured and grow the salvation you received from the Lord Jesus Christ, you must continue in faith. 


If we want to grow in grace, we must live by faith. But if want to see the maturity of our faith, we must understand where our faith comes from. Jesus Christ is the author and finisher of our faith. The know our Lord Jesus Christ more and more or as we meditate on His Word more and more, we can expect our faith to grow. In this process, we will be able to experience the grace of God becoming more evident in our lives. 

Our salvation is coupled with the assurance. The assurance of our faith comes from being faithful and true to the word of the Lord. We should understand how we can have dependence on the person of Jesus Christ. As much as He dwells in us, we must learn how to depend on the power and majesty of Jesus Christ. 

The problem with us is we live as if we don't have faith. And because we live as if don't have faith, we are also not growing in grace. We must be reminded that without faith, it would be impossible to do anything pleasing to the Lord.
