3 Essential Postures for Living Wisely By Faith

1.

to what Jesus teaches AND do what He says.

Matthew 5:24

Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.

James 2:18
But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.”
Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds.

2.

trials, but know that Jesus will provide what you need to endure them.

Matthew 7:24-27
Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.


3. in places that will grow your awe for Jesus.

Matthew 7:28-29
When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at his teaching, 29 because he taught as one who had authority, and not as their teachers of the law.
