A life of faith and wisdom Genuine faith A life of faith and wisdom

Genuine?

Mark 11:22 And Jesus answering said to them, Have faith in God. Blow it up! Mark 11:22 And Jesus answering said to them, Have faith in God. Aramaic Bible: Yeshua answered and he said to them, “May the faith of God be in you.”

Patience and faith work hand in hand. James 1:2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. Psalm 34:4 (AMP) I sought the Lord [on the authority of His word], and He answered me, And delivered me from all my fears.

Seek God for wisdom to persevere James 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. 6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

Genesis 26 AMP 18 Now Isaac again dug [and reopened] the wells of water which had been dug in the days of Abraham his father, because the Philistines had filled them up [with dirt] after the death of Abraham; and he gave the wells the same names that his father had given them. 19 But when Isaac’s servants dug in the valley and found there a well of flowing [spring] water, 20 the herdsmen of Gerar quarreled with Isaac’s herdsmen, saying, “The water is ours!” So Isaac named the well Esek (quarreling), because they quarreled with him. 

Cont… 21 Then his servants dug another well, and they quarreled over that also, so Isaac named it Sitnah (enmity). 22 He moved away from there and dug another well, and they did not quarrel over that one; so he named it Rehoboth (broad places), saying, “For now the Lord has made [d]room for us, and we shall be [e]prosperous in the land.”

follow the example in James 1: Ask God for wisdom (is this the right place) stand up in faith and believe for breakthrough Don’t waver and dig up your seed! Speak truth, life and the solution, not the problem.

every good and perfect gift comes from God! James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. 18 Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of first fruits of His creatures.
