Human Effort Can’t Conjure Up the Faith of God.
Human Effort Can’t Conjure Up the Faith of God.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing by God speaking. … No amount of human effort will bring you the faith of God.
(Quote from https://realreality.org/downloads/how-god-will-transform-you/)
No amount of human effort will bring you the faith of God.
You must stand in the presence of God if you want the faith of God. By intuition, you know how to turn your will and mind toward God. If you call to Him, He’ll answer you. If you yield yourself to His will, you’ll find He’s been there all along. As you do this, you exercise your spiritual senses. As you exercise your spiritual senses, they grow more sensitive. Your spiritual senses grow to know God’s voice better as you continue to spend time with God.
Jesus Authors Faith
Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith ~ Hebrews 12:2a Berean Study Bible
Fix your spiritual eyes on Jesus. Direct your will to follow His will.
In the parable of the sower, God sows the Seed. The Seed is the Word, which is God’s spoken Word. Jesus is the Logos, the spoken Word of God by Whom God created the universe. Jesus authors your faith. That’s why faith has such authority.
Faith is Substance and Evidence
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. ~ Hebrews 11:1 King James Version
Faith is a substance. And yet, it’s not a material substance. The substance of faith is real. It’s much more real than the material world of creation. Faith is a spiritual substance that will never be destroyed. Any material substance will pass away. Faith is reality as opposed to an idea or concept. God is working to put this spiritual substance into you permanently. You can’t separate the substance of faith from Christ Himself.
Faith is the reality of things hoped for. This hope isn’t “I-hope-so” hope. God’s hope is eternal. God’s hope is solid. God’s hope is a vision from God of what He’s going to do. It shows you who you are in Christ. This vision from God shows how you fit into the body of Christ. It shows you what is and isn’t part of the body of Christ. It shows you what God is calling you to do right now.
You have to know what God is telling you to do so you can do His will. You need to know how you fit into the body of Christ. You need to know what is and is not part of the body of Christ. God is building His house according to His pattern, and He’s revealing His pattern to you.
And faith is the evidence of things you have never seen. Faith doesn’t need circumstantial evidence to prove it. Circumstantial evidence never proves anything. It can’t. God can speak to you through circumstantial evidence, but circumstantial evidence isn’t sure without God revealing the meaning of the circumstantial evidence. People often use circumstantial evidence to tell lies.
Faith is proof because God gives you supernatural faith when He speaks to you. What God says to you is true. All physical and natural evidence is circumstantial, so it can’t show you the truth. Circumstantial evidence uses rationalizations. Rationalizations use assumptions. Assumptions are beliefs based on nothing but inner concepts and worldviews. You created your inner concepts and worldviews with circular reasoning and confirmation bias. You can’t trust them.
Fear office of your own making you have barged into as you would putting your hand on the Ark of God.
To the individuals who are shepherds of their own making, I would urge you to turn away from that office that you have barged into and fear it as you would putting your hand on the Ark of God. ~ Herrick Holt
It is possible to lift a person to the level on which we stand but no higher.
Pastors of man’s making are everywhere. The earth is full of them.
In a Bible school, you will learn a great deal about many things about many people, and you will learn that everyone else is in error but you.
To the individuals who are shepherds of their own making, I would urge you to turn away from that office that you have barged into and fear it as you would putting your hand on the Ark of God.
Not likely men will be ready for the coming together of the Body of Christ, a happening of staggering import.
The incarnation is to bring into being a new seed, an entire change, a transformation of the human race.
You can’t have grace and truth without Jesus being present.
It is impossible to develop what God is through with, namely, your old man.
What God started in 1948 isn’t the end but the beginning of the end.
The coming together has been taught at length, but someday the Body of Christ will appear in a glory well described.
One could be bogged down on any teaching when he has lost sight of the Teacher.
Everything to do with redemption is totally outside of human ability. It is the administration of the power of God by the power of God.
Once you become protective of your snug position, endeavoring to cradle the light you have, death sets in.
Whatever ground our spiritual fathers gained in ages past were but stepping stones for us to ever walk upward and onward.
There comes an end to going around the mountain.
Today, we stand on the edge of resurrection life.
Anything you can rationalize concerning divine experience, it is not likely to be divine.
By the Grace and Truth of God, we all can have the indwelling Christ of the resurrection.
Christ in you in not the same as you in Christ.
The earthly man wants to be someone and will kill himself to be first.
Jesus abased Himself to demonstrate where greatness lies.
Jesus teaches not self-assertiveness but self-negation.
The demagogic, self-assertive, dominating, dogmatic, egotistic, and arrogant belong to the kingdom of power that constantly demonstrates the big “I.”
The virtuous Kingdom of God demonstrates the gospel of love in abasing themselves.
The highest gift is humility that can out-power any force of Satan.
You can walk the life of Christ indwelling you, the life of the resurrection that is beyond the power of the natural, or resort to living after your former life.
Separation [from the world] is not human effort but God’s finger changing the clay by His powerful hands.
Being led by the Holy Spirit is the norm for those whom Christ has indwelt.
Humility in the ministry God has given you in the place in His body, the Church, becomes the coveted holding.
You minister in all humility by the gift of the Spirit.
The fruit of the Holy Spirit becomes the norm for the life that is from the Christ.
THE GREAT MYSTERY OF REDEMPTION IS CHRIST IN YOU.
Where the Holy Spirit is there is resurrection life.
The power that raised Jesus is the same that will raise us when He indwells us as He did Christ.
The Church is a yielded body to a Headship centered in the Originator of the whole redemptive structure; not a people with as many plans as physical members.
When Christ comes in to abide, He becomes your life.
Now, the indwelling Christ wants total surrender and total submission to set in motion all He has purchased for you.
An indwelling Lord is the most real experience in human experience.
The living Foundation is within, welling up until you are beyond time and space.
To enjoy the life in the Indwelling Son requires submission completely to the Spirit of God who has come to make you His house.
If we persist on living the life of the rejected fallen Adam, we die.
If you live the life of the Son, you are being touched at all times with the Divine.
The life is the very life of God in an earthen house.
Humility and submission of us all to His will is His requirement.
The Resurrection has commenced, and the total change will come by Divine appointment.
Christ leads, teaches and corrects everyone who follows Him.
Christ leads, teaches, and corrects everyone who follows Him.
Christ is real, and you can know Him.
Christ is the Word of God.
When God leads, teaches, and corrects you, He speaks His Word.
God speaks a vision of hope that shows you His glory.
If you seek Him, you WILL find Him.
When you listen to Him without rejecting Him, His faith comes.
Christ, God’s Word, authors God’s faith in you.
God’s faith accesses God’s grace.
God’s grace works through you if you yield to it.
When you yield to God’s grace, He works through you.
When you yield this way, Christ finishes the work of faith in you.
Christ forms more fully in you.
The rebellious fleshly nature has less influence over you.
A rationalized, make-believe “faith” has no power

You created your inner concepts and worldviews with circular reasoning and confirmation bias. You can’t trust them. That means you can’t trust circumstantial evidence.
You can trust God. God is absolute.
Faith by Hearing
If faith comes as a fruit of the Spirit, it comes by hearing. If faith comes as a gift of the Spirit, it comes by hearing. The faith to be born again comes by hearing. Any faith you have comes by hearing God leading, teaching, or correcting you. God can speak to you through the Bible. As God speaks through the Bible, He tells you about many of the other ways He speaks to you. No matter how God speaks to you, God’s faith will come if you listen.
Satan’s Tricks
Satan will try to convince you that faith is something faith is not. Satan will say faith is belief WITHOUT evidence when faith IS the evidence. Satan will say faith is belief BASED ON evidence when faith IS the evidence.
Satan will try to convince you that you can get faith some other way. Satan doesn’t want you listening to God’s voice in willing submission and deep respect. Satan will say you have to do works of piety to get faith. Satan will try to get you to use your intellect, emotion, knowledge, observation, common sense, or something else to get faith. None of that works.
Satan will say faith is belief, but you have to presuppose God exists, and you have to presuppose the Bible is God’s word without error. You don’t have to presuppose anything. God reveals He exists. He makes it so plain to you that you know by divine revelation. The same for the Bible. God shows you the Bible is His word without error. You don’t have to presuppose God’s revelation or figure it out.
Don’t fall for Satan’s tricks. Don’t be deceived.
Pressing Toward God’s Goal
God intends to transform you and make you like Jesus. You can’t even imagine what that is right now, but your transfiguration will make human ideas about power and authority look foolish. It will make human ideas about love, justice, and peace look pathetic. This is transformation beyond your wildest hopes. You’ve always sensed an inner longing for something more. God put that longing in your heart, and He intends to fulfill it in you.
A rationalized, make-believe “faith” has no power
A rationalized, make-believe “faith” has no power, but the faith of God has power and authority.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word, Rhema, of God.
Jesus Christ, the Living Word of God, is the Author and Finisher of our faith.

Pressing Toward God’s Goal
God intends to transform you and make you like Jesus. You can’t even imagine what that is right now, but your transfiguration will make human ideas about power and authority look foolish. It will make human ideas about love, justice, and peace look pathetic. This is transformation beyond your wildest hopes. You’ve always sensed an inner longing for something more. God put that longing in your heart, and He intends to fulfill it in you. You now know how to seek God and find Him. You know how to let the Holy Spirit lead you. You know how to receive the powerful and effective faith of God. Those are the first two keys you need to open God’s mysterious and ingenious lock. Those two keys alone won’t open the door to your total transfiguration into the image and likeness of Christ. Three more keys remain. I’ve hinted at them, but you need the detail to see how they work. And you have much to learn about the pitfalls and traps Satan has set for you. You need to know how to avoid all those pitfalls and traps. You need to know how to apply the remaining three keys in God’s way and order.
Key #3: Faith Gives Access to Grace
How do you get God’s grace? What are the means of grace?
Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we stand. ~ Romans 5:1b-2 Berean Study Bible
What does Romans 5:1b-2 tell you? It says you gained access into this grace. And you gained access into this grace by faith. Faith gave you that access. Faith allowed grace to take hold of you. Faith is the key that opened your door to grace. You stand in this grace. You couldn’t stand without this grace. Grace causes you to stand in Christ and to walk in His righteousness. Only by grace are you able to stand. Only by grace are you able to walk in God’s will.
You need God’s grace, but you can only receive God’s grace one way. Through Jesus Christ, you have gained access, by faith, into this grace. (Romans 5:2) Once you receive God’s faith by hearing His Word (The Father’s Utterance is Jesus Christ), God gives you His grace through faith. (Ephesians 2:8) Then, you advance to the works grace does since “faith without works is dead.” (James 2:17) God’s grace says God’s words and does God’s acts through you. (1 Corinthians 15:10) That means Christ, by grace, saves you from sin. (1 John 1:7) Now, you can have the real Sabbath Day rest as you stop doing your own works. (Hebrews 3:7-4:8) When Jesus does His works through you, that’s what righteousness is. Jesus authors your faith, and then He finishes your faith by doing His works through you. (Hebrews 12:2) You have a part in this. You surrender your entire being to God’s gift of righteousness. (Romans 6:13)
God leads you. He can speak to you through His creation. He leads you through the Bible. He leads you through a Christian brother or sister who speaks by the Holy Spirit. He may speak through a dream, vision, or intuition. Faith comes when He leads and you hear. Faith allows you to move in the power of God’s grace. It allows God to move through you by His grace.
For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God ~ Ephesians 2:8 Berean Study Bible
You are saved from sin and to righteousness. Ephesians 2:8 says you’re saved by grace and grace is through faith. You know where faith comes from. I’ll repeat it since so many have come up with a different definition of faith. Your faith comes when you hear God leading, teaching, and correcting you. It’s not really your faith then. It’s God’s faith in you. That’s why it can do God’s work through you.
It is possible to lift a person to the level on which we stand but no higher.
It is possible to lift a person to the level on which we stand but no higher. ~ Herrick Holt
It is possible to be caught with ceremony today and lose Jesus.
Many remember former days of outpouring and glory, but today they seek another Jesus.
All you can produce by the flesh is flesh. Though you live a thousand years, you can never produce anything but flesh.
Thousands have given their hearts to Jesus and shared in the glory of another age, but their minds are their own. This is one realm they keep.
Once you have shared in this new life of the blood of Christ, God will make available His Spirit to empower you.
Imparted wisdom is not the product of your mind but God’s.
The surrender of your mind will make you available for the Spirit to impart to you the wisdom of God.
Another Jesus by H. Holt
“Created in Christ Jesus unto good works.” Not ours! But His!
Let those words burn in our hearts! “Created in Christ Jesus unto good works.” Not ours! But His! Charles S. Price
Intellectual gymnastics will bring you into error and self-righteousness instead of the faith of God.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing by God speaking. … Intellectual gymnastics will bring you into error and self-righteousness, but it won’t give you the faith of God.
(Quote from https://realreality.org/downloads/how-god-will-transform-you/)
Intellectual gymnastics will bring you into error and self-righteousness, but it won’t give you the faith of God. Human emotion will bring you into illusion and confusion but won’t bring you the faith of God. Physical evidence and logical arguments won’t create the faith of God in you. A rationalized, make-believe “faith” has no power, but the faith of God has power and authority. No amount of human effort will bring you the faith of God.
You must stand in the presence of God if you want the faith of God. By intuition, you know how to turn your will and mind toward God. If you call to Him, He’ll answer you. If you yield yourself to His will, you’ll find He’s been there all along. As you do this, you exercise your spiritual senses. As you exercise your spiritual senses, they grow more sensitive. Your spiritual senses grow to know God’s voice better as you continue to spend time with God.
Jesus Authors Faith
Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith ~ Hebrews 12:2a Berean Study Bible
Fix your spiritual eyes on Jesus. Direct your will to follow His will.
In the parable of the sower, God sows the Seed. The Seed is the Word, which is God’s spoken Word. Jesus is the Logos, the spoken Word of God by Whom God created the universe. Jesus authors your faith. That’s why faith has such authority.
Faith is Substance and Evidence
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. ~ Hebrews 11:1 King James Version
Faith is a substance. And yet, it’s not a material substance. The substance of faith is real. It’s much more real than the material world of creation. Faith is a spiritual substance that will never be destroyed. Any material substance will pass away. Faith is reality as opposed to an idea or concept. God is working to put this spiritual substance into you permanently. You can’t separate the substance of faith from Christ Himself.
Faith is the reality of things hoped for. This hope isn’t “I-hope-so” hope. God’s hope is eternal. God’s hope is solid. God’s hope is a vision from God of what He’s going to do. It shows you who you are in Christ. This vision from God shows how you fit into the body of Christ. It shows you what is and isn’t part of the body of Christ. It shows you what God is calling you to do right now.
You have to know what God is telling you to do so you can do His will. You need to know how you fit into the body of Christ. You need to know what is and is not part of the body of Christ. God is building His house according to His pattern, and He’s revealing His pattern to you.
And faith is the evidence of things you have never seen. Faith doesn’t need circumstantial evidence to prove it. Circumstantial evidence never proves anything. It can’t. God can speak to you through circumstantial evidence, but circumstantial evidence isn’t sure without God revealing the meaning of the circumstantial evidence. People often use circumstantial evidence to tell lies.
The surrender of your mind will make you available for the Spirit to impart to you the wisdom of God.
