AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 12:3 ¶ For by the grace [of God] given to me I say to everyone of you not to think more highly of himself [and of his importance and ability] than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has apportioned to each a degree of faith [and a purpose designed for service]. |
Bible Question: I'm looking for a scripture about act as if you had faith and faith will be given. can't find it! |
Bible Answer: Rom 12:3 "...God has allotted to each a measure of faith." (NASB) Octotex, we are each alloted a measure of faith. Like Abraham, a bold example, we should act "in" this faith we've been given. It is quite another thing to act "as if" we had faith so as to gain it. God does not reward phoniness. Proverbs 16:2 "All the ways of a man are clean in his own sight, But the LORD weighs the motives." (NASB) And, Gal 6:7 "Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap." (NASB) God is not mocked. Can you think of a few televangelists who should beware? |
