Have you ever really had to live by faith?
Perhaps you gave away all your grocery money on a prompting from the Spirit, or followed a path God set before you that you knew was an impossibility in your own strength. To passionately live on faith alone in a circumstance forces you to the best place possible: Humbled before God in fervent prayer. When we live by faith there is no possible explanation or reason other than, "It's God".
It is an humanly terrifying and spiritually exhilarating place to be. It's where we are suppose to be.
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is God's power for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, and also to the Greek. For in it God's righteousness is revealed from faith to faith, just as it is written: The righteous will live by faith.
Romans 1:16-17
But My righteous one will live by faith; and if he draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him. But we are not those who draw back and are destroyed, but those who have faith and obtain life.
Hebrews 10:37-38
