SCRIPTURAL UNDERSTANDING
The first mention of the word BELIEF, FAITH or TRUST in the Scripture is in GEN 15:6 where Abraham believed in Yahuah as his Alahim and it was reckoned to him for righteousness!
REMEMBER:
Righteousness = Goodness = Trustworthy & Faithful !
NUMBERS 12:6 “And He said, “Hear now My words: If your prophet is of Yahuah, I make Myself known to him in a vision, and I speak to him in a dream. But not so with My servant Moses, for he is FAITHFUL in all My house. I speak with him mouth to mouth, and plainly, and not in riddles. And he sees the form of Yahuah (YAHUSHA). So why were you not afraid to speak against My servant Moses?” And the displeasure of Yahuah burned against them, and He left. And the cloud turned away from above the Tent, and look: Miriam was leprous, as white as snow! And Aaron turned toward Miriam, and look: a leper!”
1 SAMUEL 2:35 “And I shall raise up for Myself a FAITHFUL Priest who does according to what is in My heart and in My being. And I shall build him a steadfast house, and he shall walk in My anointing forever".
1 SAMUEL 26:23 “And let Yahuah reward every man for his righteousness and his FAITHFULNESS for this day Yahuah gave you into my hand, but I would not stretch out my hand against the anointed of Alahim”.
PSALM 12:1 “Save, Yahuah, for the kind one is no more! For the FAITHFUL have ceased from among the sons of men. They speak falsehood with each other; They speak with flattering lips, a double heart. Yahuah does cut off all flattering lips, A tongue that speaks swelling words, Who have said, “With our tongue we do mightily; Our lips are our own; Who is master over us?”
PROVERBS 14:5 “A FAITHFUL witness does not lie, but a false witness breathes out lies. A scoffer shall seek wisdom but find none, but knowledge is swift to him who has understanding. Leave the presence of a foolish man, for you shall not perceive the lips of knowledge”.
PROVERBS 25:11 “A word spoken at the right time is like apples of gold in settings of silver. A ring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, is a wise one’s rebuke to an ear that hears. Like the cold of snow in time of Harvest is a FAITHFUL messenger to those who send him, for he refreshes his master's life He who boasts of his gifts falsely Is like clouds and wind without rain. Through patience a ruler is persuaded, and a soft tongue shatters a bone. Have you found honey? Eat only as much as you need, lest you be satisfied with it and vomit”.
LUKE 12:42 “And the Master said, “Who then is the FAITHFUL and wise manager, whom his master shall appoint over his household, to give the portion of food in due season? Blessed is that servant whom his master shall find so doing when He comes”.
LUKE 16:10 “He who is FAITHFUL in what is least, is FAITHFUL also in much. And he who is unrighteous in what is least is unrighteous also in much. If, therefore, you have not been FAITHFUL in the unrighteous riches, who shall entrust to you the true? And if you have not been FAITHFUL in what is another man’s, who shall give you what is your own?”
MATTHEW 25:23 "Well done, good and FAITHFUL servant. You were FAITHFUL over a little, I shall set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’ “
GALATIANS 5:22 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, FAITHFULNESS, gentleness, self- control. Against such there is no Torah-Law”.
2 TIMOTHY 2:1 “You then, my son, be strong in the favour that is in Messiah Yahusha. And what you have heard from me among many witnesses, entrust these to FAITHFUL men who shall be competent to teach others as well. Suffer hardship with us as a good soldier of Yahusha Messiah. No one serving as a soldier gets involved in the affairs of this life, in order to please him who enlisted him as a soldier. And if anyone competes in a game, he is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules. FAITHFUL is the Word: For if we died with Him, we shall also live with Him. If we endure, we shall also reign with Yahusha. If we deny Him, He also shall deny us. Even if we are not FAITHFUL, He still remains FAITHFUL, for it is impossible for Him to deny Himself. Remind them of this, earnestly witnessing before the Master, not to wage verbal battles – which is useless – to the overthrowing of the hearers. Do your utmost to present yourself approved to Alahim, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly handling the Word of Truth”.
TITUS 2:7 “Show yourself to them as an example of good works in all things. In teaching show uncorrupt-ness, seriousness, soundness of speech beyond reproach, in order that the opponent is put to shame, having no evil word to say about you. Servants should be subject to their own masters, to be well-pleasing in every way, not back-talking, not stealing, but showing all good FAITHFULNESS, so that they adorn the teaching of Alahim our Deliverer in every way.
REVELATION 2:10 “Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. See, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, in order to try you, and you shall have pressure ten days. Be FAITHFUL until death, and I shall give you the crown of life”.
REVELATION 17:14 “They shall fight with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them, for He is Master of masters and Sovereign of sovereigns. And those with Him are called, and chosen, and FAITHFUL.”
NONE OF THESE CHOSEN SCRIPTURES ABOVE REFER TO THE FAITHFULNESS OF ALAHIM, HIS WORD OR ULTIMATELY YAHUSHA, WHO LAID DOWN THE BEHAVIOURAL BLUEPRINT FOR US (THROUGH HIS TRANSITION, LIFE, DEATH, RESURRECTION AND ASCENSION AS ALAHIM). FOLLOWING IN YAHUSHA'S FOOTSTEPS TO THE DEATH OF OUR FLESHLY SELVES MAKES US FAITHFUL AS HE IS.
AGAIN, NONE OF THESE CHOSEN SCRIPTURES ABOVE REFER TO THE FAITHFULNESS OF ALAHIM BUT OF HIS FOLLOWERS. THE QUESTION OF BELIEF, FAITH, TRUST IS USUALLY AIMED AT YAHUSHA (DO WE BELIEVE/TRUST HIM) … YET THIS IS LISTED AS A FRUIT WHICH WE (HIS BRIDE) MUST MATURE AND BE CLOTHED IN … THEREFORE THE ULTIMATE QUESTION GETS FLIPPED FROM `CAN WE TRUST HIM?’ TO …
“CAN HE TRUST US … BELIEVE IN US, COUNT ON US?” … ARE WE GOOD AND FAITHFUL, TRUSTWORTHY STEWARDS AND SERVANTS AND FOLLOWERS IN THE WAY AND NEW LIFE WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN AS A FREE GIFT … MODELLING OURSELVES ON HIS LIVING WORDS AND TWO ROYAL LAWS OF LOVE?
OR DO WE MURMUR AND COMPLAIN AND GRUMBLE AND RESENT HIM FOR EACH BLESSING THAT COMES ALONG AS WE KEEP ONE EYE ON THE EGYPT WE WERE `FORCED’ TO LEAVE?? DO WE TAKE ON THE ATTRIBUTES OF YAHUSHA’S NEW BRIDAL ELECT IN THEIR JOY AND CELEBRATION FOR ETERNAL LIFE? OR DO WE RESEMBLE HIS OLD WICKED BRIDE (STILL BEING HELD UP AS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT WE SHOULD BECOME BY THOSE WHO DENY YAHUSHA’S ALAHIMHOOD).
YAHUSHA HATED HIS OLD BRIDE’S BEHAVIOUR, DIVORCED HER AND NOW TRANSITIONS THROUGH THE WILDERNESS WORKINGS OF A SMALL FEW WHO ARE WAITING AND WATCHING FOR HIS SOON RETURN: THOSE WHO ARE DONE WITH THIS WORLD AND IT’S WAYS AND HAVE THEIR EYES FIRMLY FIXED ON THE NEW CITY WHO’S BUILDER AND MAKER IS YAHUSHA ALAHIM.
WHICH BRIDE DO YOU RESEMBLE?
ARE YOU FAITHFUL IN WHAT’S GIVEN YOU?
ARE YOUR TALENTS BEING USED OR WASTED?
WILL YOU BE CALLED A WISE & FAITHFUL
SERVANT AT YAHUSHA’S SOON RETURN?
ARE YOU FAITHFUL TO YAHUSHA ALAHIM OR THE CORRUPT SPIRIT THAT'S IN YOUR FLESH, DEMANDING YOUR ATTENTION AND WORSHIP??
