除非你有圣言,否则你不可能有信念 

  如果你信心软弱的话,就是因为你没有足够的圣言。圣言是医治怀疑的最好方法。《圣经》上说:“信心是从听上帝的圣言而来。”(罗马书10:17)这就是信心的法则。所以,如果你觉得“噢,我的上帝,我怎么也没有足够的信心!”那正是因为你没有足够的圣言。因为信心是从圣言而来的。信心靠着听从上帝的圣言而产生和成长。它不会突然地爆发。它是一种建立在勤勉地学习上帝圣言之上的东西。

  上帝甚至会给你信心去相信他的圣言。他就是“我们信心的创始者和完成者。”(希伯来书12:2)信心不是一种你能用自己的奋斗和力量来赚取、积攒、或洗练出来的东西。通过圣言而接受信心是上帝恩典的工作过程。你所需要做的只是去接受它就行了!

  所以,请不要忽视他的圣言。它是你灵魂的食粮,并会在战斗中给你力量。是他的圣言、以他的圣灵、在他的爱里使你坚强起来!上帝帮助我们在他的圣言中生活。它会增强你的信心。信心是建立在圣言之上的。所以,要充满祷告地去研读它,并请求上帝去增强你的信心,而他一定会这样做!他永不会失败!他总会回答那些饥渴的心灵!

It is impossible to have faith unless you have the Word.

The Bible says that faith comes from the Word of God (Romans 10:17). That’s a basic spiritual law, as sure as what goes up comes down. So if you’re weak in faith it’s because you’re weak in the Word.

The cure for doubts is the Word. Faith comes, it grows, by hearing the Word of God. It’s not a sudden boom. It is something that is built by faithful study of God’s Word.

Faith isn’t something you work up, muster up, or polish up by your own efforts and strength. Accepting faith through His Word is a work of God’s grace. All you have to do is desire and receive it. Jesus even gives you faith to believe His Word. Jesus is the “author and finisher of our faith” (Hebrews 12:2).

Don’t neglect His Word. It is food for your soul and gives you strength for the daily battles of life. It is His Word by His Spirit in His love that makes you strong. So read it prayerfully and ask God to increase your faith, and He will. He never fails! He’ll always answer the hungry heart.
