FAITH UPON TRUTH–Truth Time

Scripture Text—Genesis 22:1-19

Victorious faith rises, runs, and rests upon TRUTH. Jesus=TRUTH

The world, the flesh, and the devil offer us, “alternative facts,” that is, lies, about ourselves, people around us, and life itself.

Jesus declared that His followers would know the truth and that the truth would set us free. (John 8:32) Jesus, Himself, is the truth. (John 14:6) Knowing Him frees us from the deception and resulting bondage of the, “alternate facts,” of the world, the flesh, and the devil.

Faith rises in us upon hearing the God’s Word. This makes us a “new creation, old things are passed away.” (II Corinthians 5:17 )

Faith runs upon the truth of God’s Word. (Isaiah 40:31) We live (run) by faith in what God’s Word says, not according to what we see. *The truth isn’t what is apparent. The truth is what God says!* Living according to that is running upon faith.

Faith rests upon the truth. We are made right with God in Christ. Faith rests upon that truth. Jesus tells us that we are to abide in Him, rest upon him, and this will result in bearing fruit to God’s glory.

The world, the flesh, and the devil present, “alternative facts,” to the reality of God’s Word. Faith rises to run the race set before us while it rests upon the Word of God.
