“…WE LIVE BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT. We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord. So we make it our goal to please him…For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.” (2 Corin. 5:7-10)
Our Lord will return for His loved ones someday,
Our troubles will then all be o’er;
The Master so gently will lead us away,
Beyond that blest heavenly shore.
I’m living by faith…
Sleight of hand is used by magicians to fool their audiences. Magicians have been found to make their audience blink at key moments, causing them to miss key actions that could reveal how an illusion was done. The devil uses this technique “…the god of this world (the devil) has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel…” (2 Corin. 4:4) The bible says, “…faith comes from hearing…the word of Christ.” (Rom. 10:17) Read the word, listen to the word, pray the word and speak the word. Let the wonderful and powerful Word of God enlighten us and become an essential part of our lives…
THE WORD OF GOD IS LIVING AND POWERFUL…
