FAITH, HOPE, AND LOVE; LOVE IS THE GREATEST!
And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity (1 Corinthians 13:13).
The principles of faith, hope, and love are the great principles revealed to us in the Word. Hope is the picture you see afar off; the flicker of light on the horizon on which you fix your gaze. Many things may try to dissuade you from seeing the picture, but never let it go. If for some reason, things go blurred and you can't see it anymore, go back to prayer and confession of the Word, to regain that vision.
Remember, hope, the Bible says, makes not ashamed; it doesn't disappoint us. Once you can see the picture, the next thing to do is to take action. It's one thing to look at the picture far away; it's another thing to take possession of it and bring it into the NOW of your life; that's faith! Faith is when you take possession of the picture you see afar off through your confessions.
The Bible says, "NOW FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses ]" (Hebrews 11:1AMP). Hope says, it will be mine, but faith says, I have it.
The third of these principles is LOVE, and according to the Bible, it's the greatest of the three. The reason hope doesn't disappoint is because the love of God is shed abroad in oyr heart by the Holy Spirit; Romans 5:5 says, "And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our heart by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us". Also, your walk of love secures faith in your heart, for the Bible says faith works by love (Galatians 5:6).
We function with God through love; without love, your faith wouldn't work. Love is the bond of perfection. Glory to God! Hallelujah! I love the way the Message Translation renders Colossians 3:14: "And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It's your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it". Blessed be God. Hallelujah!!!
YOU ARE BLESSED!!
