Faith comes by Hearing the Word of God.
Rom 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the WORD OF GOD.
As I was reading this scripture one day it was like a light turned on inside my heart. Scriptures to tell us that “the spirit of man is the candle of the Lord” (Prov 20:27), and in another place it says, “the Lord shall light my candle, the Lord shall illuminate my darkness. (Psa 18:28)
The Lord light my spirit (candle), and I saw something I never seen before in this scripture. It says faith comes by hearing the “WORD OF GOD”, not the words of God plural, but the WORD GOD singular!! Who is the Word of God? Jesus is the Word of God singular, not plural!!! There is only “one” Jesus Christ, not many Jesus's!!! I hate to pop any ones bubble, but, the Bible is NOT Jesus!!! The Bible contains the words of God plural. The Bible did not die for us, neither did the Bible raise from the dead, but Jesus did.
If Jesus is the Word of God (singular), and he is, then, what words (plural) does Jesus speak out his mouth? Jesus only speaks words (plural) of what he hears His Father say.
John 12:49 I don't speak on My own authority. THE FATHER WHO SENT ME HAS COMMANDED ME WHAT TO SAY AND HOW TO SAY IT.
John 12:50 And I know His commands lead to eternal life; so I SAY WHATEVER THE FATHER TELLS ME TO SAY." (NLT)
When you hear Jesus speaking you are hearing the words of God the Father coming out of his mouth!!! What am I trying to say?
When I go to Church I am listening for the “voice” of the Word of God (Jesus Christ), and when I discern his voice, I will hear the words of God the Father. Faith comes by hearing the voice of Jesus Christ speaking his Father's words!!!
No wonder Jesus said.....”My sheep hear my voice, and they follow me. The voice of a stranger they will not follow” (John 10:27) (John 10: 4-5)
