Faith is what keeps the Christian on his feet, but it is not faith in something or someone or anything, it is faith in God, our beloved heavenly father, who motivates us to continue fighting and cry out before him until we find victory in our responses. .
The trials or crises of life teach us that it is necessary to believe in God with conviction and firmness and to declare his promises in the midst of the storm.
It is faith that sustains us in the midst of this time and it is faith in God that keeps us alive, motivated and hopeful in the face of any adversity.
In any crisis we have to apply our faith and have patience to wait for the one who promised us to hear our voice and cry to get us out of all affliction.
This psalm recited by David teaches us to wait in faith for all that He has promised us.
Psalms 40
"I waited patiently for Jehovah,
And he bowed to me, and heard my cry.
2 And he brought me out of the pit of despair, out of the muddy mud;
He put my feet on the rock, and straightened my steps.
3 Then he put in my mouth a new song, praise to our God.
Many will see this, and fear,
And they will trust Jehovah.
4 Blessed is the man who puts his trust in Jehovah,
And do not look at the proud, nor at those who deviate after lying.
5 You have increased your wonders, O Jehovah my God;
And your thoughts towards us,
It is not possible to count them before you.
If I announced and talked about them,
They cannot be numbered ...
16 Let all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you,
And let those who love your salvation always say:
Jehovah be exalted.
17 Though I am distressed and needy,
Jehovah will think of me.
My help and my liberator are you;
My God, it didn't take long. "
King James Version (RVR1960)
Faith is what shows us that we have believed in God when we look at it far beyond the circumstances that we can look around us.
Although we are afflicted and needy, we must cry out to God believing that He hears us, therefore, we must recognize that in our strength we would never do anything, all that we can achieve is by the grace of God in our lives.
Our trust must be immersed in the faith we have towards God and think that God's plans for us are wonderful, that He will never leave us alone and his mercy is new every day in his children.
We are blessed to believe in the God of the universe who created everything in heaven and under heaven. He is our inspiring source in all circumstances.
Let us all rejoice and be glad that we seek him, let us praise his name forever because our almighty strong and brave God is our help and our liberator.
Wait patiently, fill yourself with faith and wait with much hope because our God does not take long to help us
