By faith and not by perceptions

 

For we walk by faith, not by sight:

2 Corinthians 5:7

 

Faith is associated to being led by the Spirit of God and it is pertaining to walking with God.  Whereas our perception about things is associated with our physical sense to predict what could happen.  However, the human perception is limited to foreseeing promises of the spirit. But it is only through faith you can foresee the promise of the spirit. Galatians 3:14b ‘that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.’ If you were told by God of a promise,  It is through faith you can receive the promise and not by your perception, sight or feelings. Sarah was told that she will have a child at her old age, she perceived by her knowledge that it is impossible. It can only be impossible if you try to foresee the promise of the spirit through your perception. By faith you will see the promise of the spirit and even beyond. The scripture says that faith is the substance of things hoped for and evidence of things not seen. This shows that your faith is a guarantee of the promise of God, yet not seen.

Dear reader I know you have been blessed today! walk with God by your faith so that you will receive his promises and not by your perceptions; sight, emotions or feelings. God bless you.

 

Conclusion:

The evidence to receiving the promises of the father, God through Christ Jesus is through your faith and not by your perceptions.
