Daily Bread.


Word.
There truly is nothing like God's Word. Moses proclaimed to the people of Israel, 'Gods words are not just empty words for you, THEY ARE YOUR LIFE! By OBEYING them you will enjoy a long life in the land you will occupy when you cross the Jordan River' (Dt. 32:47). Jesus told his disciples that His words are spirit and LIFE (Jn. 6:63).
Jesus quoted Dt. 8:3 when He was being tempted by Satan, saying 'Man shall not LIVE by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD that proceeds out of the mouth of God' (Mt. 4:4). And we all know James 1:22, 'Be doers of the Word and not hearers only'. By humbly sitting at the feet of Jesus, soaking up His Word (just like Mary in Luke 10:39) we are doing the 'one thing that is needed'. - Jeremy H.

Faith.
Hebrews 11:1-10
* It is impossible to please God without it!!!!
Faith sees superior realities to things that are before you that have been called impossible.
Faith lives with a conviction of superior things then what you can see in the natural.
* It is impossible to please God without being aware of unseen things.
It is impossible to please God apart from the burning conviction that God has a better way, that God has an answer to every impossibility.
Lk. 1:37

Faith comes from what? Hearing the Word. rom. 10:17
