Not Just Great Faith, but a GREAT SAVIOR

Too much preaching in the United States tells about having great faith.

But many people do not know that we have a living Savior watching out for us NOW.

I love many of the teachings released by Pastor Jerry Savelle, for example, and also from Pastor Kenneth Copeland and others.

However, too many of them are just focusing on "The Word, The Word, The Word," without connecting with the truth that the Word is a PERSON!

We don't read the Bible to get knowledge. We read the Bible so that we can meet JESUS!

I need to know that I have a living Savior watching out for me.

I need to know that this living Savior is living through me and caring for me.

In fact, we all need to know about this glorious promise established for us in the New Covenant:

"For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:" (Hebrews 8:10)

He is a God to us!

We need to understand that we don't bring God alive in our lives through our confession.

Our confession is all about gaining a greater awareness of who He is all that He is doing.

We need the Word of God so that we can understand the loving God of the Word!

We don't need great faith to believe in a great Savior. We need to know that we have a Great Savior who cares for us, and that revelation builds our faith!

More Revelations About His Perfect Peace

I realized more and more that I kept treating Jesus too small. I put him in my head, when the truth is that he is outside of our heads and holding everything together.

Perfect peace is about us leaning into Him. 

I kept thinking that I had to make sure that I was thinking about Him, to ensure that He would take care of me. I had too small an understanding of my Heavenly Father.

Over the past two months, I have received a larger and larger revelation of how big He is. Thank you, Daddy God, for being so patient with me as you reveal more of yourself to me.

I see now to what extent You are taking care of me. I realize that I have been still depending too much on myself. I was too busy thinking that I had to do "my part" in order for you to do your part. How wrong I was!

 I kept thinking that I had to do everything myself because you were not on the job, or that it made me irresponsible. Bulk. Keep in enlightening the eyes of my heart!

It all makes perfect sense to me. We have to ask the Holy Spirit to enlighten the eyes of our hearts, because all the thinking, all the reasoning, all the internal mental discernment is not enough, cannot make it possible for us to see how big our loving, Heavenly Father really is. We simply cannot understand how great his efforts are to help us if we do not read His Word and take as truth the testimonies that He is on our side.

All this time, I was so busy thinking that I had to "do something" in order to see God and to be able to depend on him. I need to depend Him on everything. I need to depend on Him even when I think that I do not need to depend on Him on something.

Thank you, Lord, for your patience with me. AMEN!
