HAVE FAITH IN WHAT GOD HAS DONE

“And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.” (Ephesians 2:1-3 KJV)

Death was automatically passed on to every man born on the face of the earth. You do not have a choice in this matter. The above Bible passage explains what happened before you became a Christian, which affected your dominion mandate.

If you do not have Christ, you are a child of wrath by nature. That is why it is important that you receive Christ into your life. The problem with Christianity is that religion tells you to have faith in the things you do for God more than what God has done for you. The truth, however, is that the things you do for God are nothing but dead works. They can never be acceptable. Even our justification is by faith. If your faith is in what you do for God, it will never be perfect because it will always be tainted with human elements. He does not bless you on the premise of what you are supposed to do for Him.

So, Brother Mike, are you saying that it is wrong to do something for God? No! But if that is where your faith is hinged in order to receive from God, you will fail because it can never be complete and perfect before Him. The offering that God accepts must be perfect. Perfectly, perfect, and completely complete. It cannot be added to or subtracted from. So, it is not about you. He wants you to have faith in what He has done for you through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
