Elements of faith
Dr. Roberto MirandaRESUMEN:
Faith is a belief system that impacts every aspect of one's life, from moral beliefs to relationships and worldview. It requires taking risks and often leads to action, even in the face of uncertainty and contradiction. Faith can be costly, but it remains despite unexpected results or delays. It requires persistence, obstinacy, and insistent focus. The only way to access God and receive from Him is through faith. The story of the woman who touched the hem of Jesus' garment exemplifies many of these qualities, including belief, conviction, and trust in Jesus' power.
The story of the woman with the issue of blood teaches us about the power of faith. This woman had faith that Jesus could heal her, and she took action to get to him despite the obstacles in her way. Her faith opened access to the power of Jesus, and it made her different from the crowd. We can learn from her example and apply these principles of faith in our own lives to become powerful men and women of God.Children are experts at the illogical and the counteraction or the counterintuitive, they can enter into the magic of play and belief. That’s why it’s easier for them. It’s easier also for an artist to enter into the lane of faith and for a scientist because, you know, that’s the way it is. If faith is countercultural, counterintuitive and counter rational.
Six: Faith leads you to take risks based on your beliefs. Taking risks is the essence here of what I’m saying. The emphasis is there: taking risks. You have to take risks. Many times the walk of faith will ask you to take risks. Like, you know, Esther, the classic example: she has to come before the king and the law of the land said the king has to give you and appointment, he has to invite, never enter into the king without being invited. But she needs to because she has a pressing need. And what are her famous words? If I perish, I perish, but I’m going to go in. there’s a need and I have to… and faith is like that, you have to take risks.
