Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1
But without faith it is impossible to please Hhim: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6
Nana, thank you for posting this scripture last night:
But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6
I understood the first part, but as I read this part:
AND THAT HE IS A REWARDER OF THEM THAT DILIGENTLY SEEK HIM.
I have been so blessed reading that again, and getting it back in my heart that God is a Rewarder. God is Love! He loves us!
I think folks who have come out of cults need to remind themselves to not neglect, but tocontinually claim God’s Word to counter the vicious lies of satan and his minions — that we can never be worthy of anything; others can, but somehow we can’t. Satan, the father of all lies, wants us to forget that Jesus has already made us worthy through His shed blood. And He gave us His Word and His Holy Spirit. We are more than conquerors!
Jesus fought the battle once for all time; we only need to accept that IT IS DONE!
P.S. Colorcountry, I included you in my message to Nana because I felt led to do so in my spirit.
