Description:
Learn how to live and walk by faith in today’s live broadcast, as Joseph Z and Jeremy Pearsons share insights into faith. Jeremy instructs that faith is a constant expectation of the good yet to come. While grace is God speaking to us, it reveals the great love of Christ for us but requires a faith response to be activated in our lives because faith is the only appropriate response to grace.

He further explains that faith begins by hearing and how we respond is where faith comes into question, for where there’s no response indicates no honor. He leads us to the Book of Mark 3:1-5 to remind us about how the man with the withered hand was healed, how he responded to the command of Jesus to stretch out his hands which led to his healing after he stretched out his hands. In other words, his response of stretching out his hands was an act of faith on his part, which made him whole. Recall that Christ always attributes his healings to the faith of the ones He healed and not His own; such was also the case in the woman with the issue of blood.
Additionally, Jeremy leads us to understand that if there’s no power in our words, we are far from being born again because when we speak, there should be a power response. He then prays that the eyes of our understanding be enlightened, that we may know the hope of our calling.
