The proof of one’s faith…..

[Not me]

1 Peter 1:7 (NASB20)
so that the proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which perishes though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What is the proof of faith? 

That would be the outcome of a trial that pushed one to the end of one’s own ability, that outcome, whatever it might be, is the proof of one’s faith… For the proving the realness of one’s faith, the fire of a trial pushing one beyond one’s own abilities, is that which is necessary for the proof, or lack of, to be manifested….

For if one would, the proof of faith is the proof of the actual growing of the new life in one… This new life is that that will be praised, glorified and honored at the revelation of Christ…. For the revelation of Christ is the revealing of His life in one and to the degree it has been grown in one, to the praise of Him who died to make this new life possible….

For the salvation that is offered in Christ is the life of Christ being brought to life in one, this alone is the salvation offered, this new life coming to manifestation in one…. This life being the only life that can live before God, this life being the proof of one’s faith, via, the degree of one’s faith being the degree of this life… For the faith into this life is one’s desiring of this life.. For scripture says ‘the just shall live by faith’ which, is as much as saying ‘the just shall live by desiring into this new life’…. For to the strength of one’s desire into this new life will be the strength of one’s faith towards this new life…

There is but one barrier between the experiencing of this new life and that which has been one’s life….This being that which Christ said must be denied if one would come after Him, that being one’s very self, that is, one’s very own, own will…. For this is that which needs to be understood, embraced, and walked in, for all those that would desire to follow after Christ; this picking up one’s cross and willfully dying on it… For this dying to own will is the opener of all good things from God, blessed are those that willingly embrace and walk in it….

Be blessed all in the willing, the embracing and the walking….

I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me: and that life which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, the faith which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.     Galatians 2:20

Hi, the experiencing of this scripture, is the experiencing of the salvation that is our’s in Christ….

Be so very blessed in that experiencing…..

Just to add a little extra scriptural support to this.

James 2:14 " But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works."

Yes, because the Christian can stand firm, believing, without a shadow of a doubt, that God is faithful to keep His promises (the things hoped for).  The Word of God is our Rock. 

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Only God could testify to my spirit that I am his child/ born again.....after that, which was nearly 30:yrs ago.....my faith has grown in leaps and bounds.....it hasn’t been easy path to follow, if it wasn’t for the indwelling Holy Spirit, there is no way I would make it.

I am his child and I look to him always, he is the only one who can keep me on his path and he certainly does, for his purpose and plan for my life.

So all the Glory goes to God, He is the one that keeps me on that narrow path, even when I may venture off it, he and only He gets me back on it....it’s an amazing living relationship with God....words could never express how awesome it is...

One very important lesson I have learnt being born again and in the Kingdom of God.

Stay very close to Him and He stays very close to us....put him first in everything, consult with him in everything.....put your trust in him, for surely He will “ NEVER” let you down!....

That relationship is glorious…..

Be so blessed in that glory, Not me
