Greetings,
This Christmas season many will be mixing different ingredients together to come up with all kinds of delicious dishes.
The ingredients for the mixtures will be most important in order to end up with the desired dish. If one of those ingredients is old and has lost its flavour, all of the cook’s work will be in vain.
When we think of the building blocks of faith we need to make sure we have the right ingredients—the right truths to base our faith on.
Since faith comes by the Word of God we must endeavour to get His Word on what we want to create and then use our faith to see that desire effect come to fruition. (Here’s an article about living by faith).
Notice how the children of Israel missed it when they didn’t enter into the mixing process properly:
Heb 4:2 “For indeed the gospel was preached to us as well as to them; but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it.”
We have the Spirit and our Faith, which we mix with the Word by speaking out God’s Word as it pertains to our lives.
Your tongue is the mixer, so use it until you get the desired texture…
Love to all,
PB
