Here's the Challenge:
1 - Share scripture about walking by faith, not by sight.
ONE VERSE PER REPLY PLEASE.
and/or
2 - Share experiences where you did this.
My first one:
2 Cor. 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
James 2:22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and BY WORKS was faith (trust in God) MADE PERFECT?
Matthew 21:22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive (if ye DO God's Will and not your own).
Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the confidence of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Matthew 17:20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this government, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
Pressing forward towards the mark today. Gardens growing, souls abounding, pleasing God, is a beauty to behold seeing it is achievable gives faith to receive more rainfall. There are those who obviously have lived this Scripture passage out in their lives, thank-you.
Sura 2:265. And the likeness of those who spend their substance, seeking to please God and to strengthen their souls, is as a garden, high and fertile: heavy rain falls on it but makes it yield a double increase of harvest, and if it receives not heavy rain, light moisture sufficeth it (Matt. 13:8). God seeth well whatever ye do.
Acknowledged this today: seeking to please God and strengthen my souls, giving serious thought to He sees everything.
Gal. 10:23-24 Let us hold fast the declaration of [our] faith without wavering; (for he [is] faithful that promised;) Meekness, temperance: against such there is no Law.
John 15:11These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and [that] your joy might be full.
Hebrews 11:6 But without faith [it is] impossible to please [Him]: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and [that] He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.
Mark
5:35 While he yet spoke, there came from the ruler of the church's [house certain] which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou The Master any further?
5:36 As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the church, Be not afraid, only believe.
5:37 And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.
5:38 And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the church, and seeth the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.
5:39 And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.
5:40 And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.
5:41 And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise.
5:42 And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was [of the age] of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.
Luke 17:5 And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.
Deut. 7:9 Know therefore that the "I AM" thy God, He [is] God, the faithful God, which keepeth Covenant and mercy with them that love Him and keep His Commandments to a thousand generations;
Eph. 3:17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
James 1:2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into diverse temptations;
We are all tempted everyday. Knowing that Christ is right beside us, every step of the way, makes it so wonderful for each one of the temptations.
