REVIVAL THROUGH ROMANS…IF YOU ARE SAVED, THROUGH FAITH, YOUR LIFE IS HIS STORY AND NOT YOUR STORY!
THROUGH FAITH, ABRAHAM GAVE UP HIS STORY TO BE A PART OF GOD’S STORY. FAITH IS SAYING ‘AMEN’ TO WHATEVER GOD WANTS!
Romans 4:1-3 ESV
What then shall we say was gained by Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh? [2] For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God. [3] For what does the Scripture say? "Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness."
THROUGH FAITH, BEING A PART OF GOD’S STORY IS WAY BETTER THAN ANYTHING YOU COULD EVER BE A PART OF IN CREATING YOUR OWN STORY. UNRIGHTEOUSNESS IS REMOVED AND RIGHTEOUSNESS IS RECEIVED!
Romans 4:4-8 ESV
Now to the one who works, his wages are not counted as a gift but as his due. [5] And to the one who does not work but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness, [6] just as David also speaks of the blessing of the one to whom God counts righteousness apart from works: [7] "Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, and whose sins are covered; [8] blessed is the man against whom the Lord will not count his sin."
THROUGH FAITH, WHEN YOUR STORY BECOMES HIS STORY, YOU ARE BORN AGAIN INTO AN AWESOME, ETERNAL, AND UNIVERSAL FAMILY…WHEN YOU BELIEVE…YOU BELONG!
Romans 4:9-12 ESV
Is this blessing then only for the circumcised, or also for the uncircumcised? For we say that faith was counted to Abraham as righteousness. [10] How then was it counted to him? Was it before or after he had been circumcised? It was not after, but before he was circumcised. [11] He received the sign of circumcision as a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised. The purpose was to make him the father of all who believe without being circumcised, so that righteousness would be counted to them as well, [12] and to make him the father of the circumcised who are not merely circumcised but who also walk in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.
FATHER ABRAHAM…HAD MANY KIDS…MANY KIDS HAD FATHER ABRAHAM…I AM ONE OF THEM…AND SO ARE YOU…SO LET’S JUST PRAISE THE LORD!
IS THIS LIFE ABOUT YOU WRITING YOUR OWN STORY?…OR THROUGH FAITH…SAYING ‘AMEN’ TO WHATEVER GOD WANTS AND BEING A PART OF HIS STORY?
