CALLING FORTH FAITH

HEARD:  Calling forth things that are not as though they are.

Rom 4:16-19 NKJV

Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all the seed, not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all (as it is written, "I have made you a father of many nations") in the presence of Him whom he believed — God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did; who, contrary to hope, in hope believed, so that he became the father of many nations, according to what was spoken, "So shall your descendants be." 

POEM:  CALLING FORTH FAITH  10/27/06

Let faith arise and come up higher.

To leave the darkness and the mire.

Proclaim what you hear and then commit.

To lean on God to manifest it.

The Word of God is in high demand.

Releasing captives from His command.

Not one jot or tittle will be changed

He exalts His Word above His Name.

Listen daily for the Word of God,

To walk in peace with your feet well shod.

Logos and rhema, quicken oh Dove!

Bursting to life with faith, hope and love.

Mount up higher to a settling place

To close all doors of shame and disgrace.

For when His truth is revealed to thee

It paves a way for your destiny.

As you trust God to establish you,

It confirms and plants all that you do.

He waters and feeds His Words each day.

To root them deeply, just simply obey.

Before you know it, a tree has grown.

With fruit to bare from all that was shown.

Ps 138:2 NKJV

For You have magnified Your Word above all Your name .

Rom 4:17 AMP

As it is written, I have made you the father of many nations. [He was appointed our father] in the sight of God in Whom he believed, Who gives life to the dead and speaks of the nonexistent things that [He has foretold and promised] as if they [already] existed. [Gen 17:5.]
