We have all been implanted with a gift that is not of this world. It is called a measure of faith (Romans 12:3).
Faith is not a tangible commodity that is beheld with our natural eyes.
It is a divine deposit that our heavenly FATHER placed in our fearfully and wonderfully made bodies.
Every human being walking on the earth possesses this divine accessory.
The value of it is priceless. Yes, faith is valuable and can be used like currency.
According to investomedia.com, currency is a medium used in exchange for goods and services.
If I want groceries, I must exchange some currency for the fruit, bread, and milk I desire.
Have you used your currency of faith?
Our mouth is like an ATM card. When we speak in faith, heaven dispenses the substance of things hoped for and the verified proof of what existed in a divine realm (Hebrews 11:1).
Yet, it’s the delivery time of the purchased goods that is often a challenge to us.
Everyone wants a speedy “prime” delivery, and heavenly distributions will not be boxed into earthly expectations.
Scripture says that we should pray for our experiences on earth to be as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10). Not the other way around.
What have you purchased with your measure of faith?
Have you been shopping?
The supernatural component of faith is that you can shop for divine interventions to disrupt natural courses on the earth.
For example, my four-year-old grandson has been battling a speech delay. We could settle for what may be diagnosed over him, or we could exercise a measure of faith to believe that he would overcome this challenge.
The following recording may not mean much to you, but hearing my four-year-old grandson count (even if 7 +7 doesn’t = 14) is a divine purchase that was delivered to my ear gate right on time.
His voice is a kiss from heaven.
Remember, faith is a free gift from GOD, and when our faith aligns with the WORD of GOD, we can receive things that we’ve hoped for.
There is nothing new under the sun. Therefore, we’re not speaking new things into existence. We are merely petitioning to ELOHIM, WHO has created all things and has access to everything we could ever need.
Faith is not magic or the exercise of reckless power.
It is having confidence in GOD to fulfill what we need. Faith is the audacity to believe that what is impossible with man is still attainable in GOD.
Faith as a currency is only one way to view your divine accessory. According to Hebrews 11, faith is also confidence in GOD, understanding the existence of GOD, offering appropriately to GOD, walking relationally with GOD, being obedient to GOD, considering the faithfulness of GOD, and many, many more perspectives.
One perspective we should all be mindful of is that without faith, it is impossible to please HIM. If you have been under-utilizing this gift from GOD, you have been living below your purpose (Romans 1:17).
17 This Good News tells us how GOD makes us right in HIS sight. This is accomplished from start to finish by faith. As the Scriptures say, “It is through faith that a righteous person has life. (Romans 1:17 NLT)
In other words, the just shall live by faith. Spend your currency. It’s free and never depleted.
Bless the LORD Affirmation
FATHER,
Bless the LORD, oh my soul and all that is within me. Thank YOU for the revelation that we please YOU when we live by faith. Like the three Hebrew boys, we choose to stand on our faith regardless of the outcome. We agree that YOU are well able to meet every one of our needs, even if, through YOUR divine will, YOU don’t (Daniel 3:17-18).
