The Power of Faith

by Andrew Murray

By faith even Sarah herself received power since she counted Him faithful whohad promised. " Heb. 11: 11.

SEE here again one of the examples, so simple and intelligible of what faith is:

"She counted Him faithful who had promised." There was a time when Sarahdoubted, for she looked to nature, and it said to her that she should no longerbear. Through the repeated promises of the Lord she was neertheless led tolook to Him who had gien the promises, and keeping in mind His diinefaithfulness she found there was no alternatie for her but to beliee! and theonl account which she could gie of the supernatural expectation of faith wasthis: "He is faithful that promised." #Heb. $%: &'(.

The same wa must still be followed b those )hristians who desire to beliberated from their doubts and to reach the blessed experiences of the life offaith. *e must learn to hae done with reasonings of the understanding! with

the +uestions which nature would hae first answered, such as, "How can thesethings be", "*hereb shall - know it", with calculations as to whether our ownwisdom and power are perchance sufficient to bring us where we must know!and we must hold ourseles content with the iew expressed in this sentence:"he is faithful that promised." The onl thing which one has to ask is this, "-sthere a promise also for me" -f the word of od gies us the answer: "This s afaithful saing and worth of all acceptation, that /esus )hrist came into theworld to sae sinners of whom - am the chief," then that is sufficient to bring usdown before the Lord and to make us expect that He will perform the promise tous: "He is faithful that promised."

%, if souls would onl keep themseles occupied with the consideration of od0sfaithfulness, how would unbelief be ashamed. *heneer anxious feelingsmultipl in ou, and ou fear for ourself and our work, go, 1 soul, bow down insilent meditation and adoration before our od as the faithful 1ne, until ourwhole spirit becomes filled with the thoughts and the peace that spring from thisattribute. o oer all the assurances in the Scriptures, so glorious and clear, thatthe unchangeable 1ne Himself shall fulfill His counsel, and that He simpldesires of souls the stillness which obseres and expects the performance. Take


34/40

counsel with the belieers of the old and new coenants, reflect on their wasand their leadings, and the will tell ou with one accord that their strength andtheir peace hae been 22 the faithfulness of od. %, pra, accustom ourself,eer da, with eer promise of od that ou read, with eer praer that oumake for the attainment of what od has spoken to ou of, with eer fear that

arises in ou as to whether ou shall be indeed partaker of the offered salation,-- pray, accustom yourself to fasten your eye undividedly on that word, tolet your whole heart be filled with it: "He is faithful that promised." 3nd,aboe all, een when ou are not et able to appropriate eerthing toourseles, forget not to praise and thank od for His faithfulness! praise andadore Him as the 4aithful 1ne! adoration will confirm ou in faith in Him. 5ormust ou set our hope on the diine faithfulness onl when ou are taking thefirst steps on the wa of conersion, seeking for forgieness and acceptance,but, especiall in the midst of the struggle, to be confirmed unto the end and tobe unreproable in the da of our Lord/esus. -t is with his ee fixed on this hopethat 6aul sas "od is faithful, through whom e were called into the fellowship of

His Son /esus )hrist." #$ )or. $: 7, 8(! 9ust as in that glorious work aboutsanctification that finds so little belief, "The od of peace sanctif ou wholl," healso immediatel adds: "4aithful is He that calleth ou, who will also do it." #$Thess. : &', &;(.

-t was b this faith, this loal esteem of the faithfulness of her od and relianceupon it, that Sarah receied power to bear. So far is this faith also from leading tosluggishness and indifference that it will increase actiit. -t teaches the soul towait upon od spirituall and earnestl, that He ma point out to it what it mustdo, and that it ma learn b experience to understand the deep significance ofthat word: "*ork, for od worketh in ou."


35/40

2 $od [is] faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his &on rooted and built up inHim" and established in the faith" abounding therein !ith than=sgiving.#Col. $;-2

-n these words the apostle teaches us the weight lesson that it is not onl b faith that we firstcome to )hrist and are united to Him, but that it is b faith that we are to be rooted andestablished in our union with )hrist. 5o less essential than it is for the commencement is faith for

the progress of the spiritual life. 3biding in /esus can onl be b faith.

There are earnest )hristians who do not understand this! or, if the admit it in theor, the fail toreali=e its application in practice. The are er =ealous for a free gospel with our firstacceptance of )hrist, and 9ustification b faith alone. The sinner shall be 9ustifiedb faith,? the hae hardl found a place in their scheme for the larger truth >The 9ust shall livebfaith.? The hae neer understood what a perfect Saior /esus is, and how He will each daydofor the sinner 9ust as much as He did the first da when he or she came to Him. The do notknow that the life of grace is alwas and onl a life of faith and that in the relationship to /esus theone dail and unceasing dut of the disciple is to believe, because belieing is the one channelthrough which diine grace and strength flow out into the heart of man. The old nature of thebelieer remains eil and sinful to the last! it is onl as he dail comes, all empt and helpless, to

his Saior to receie of His life and strength that he can bring forth the fruits of righteousness tothe glor of od. Therefore, it is >Ase hae receied )hrist /esus the Lord, sowalk e in Him!rooted and built up in Him, and established in the faith, abounding therein.? Asou came to/esus, soabide in Him, b faith.

3nd if ou would know how faith is to be exercised in thus abiding in /esus, to be rooted moredeepl and firml in Him, ou hae onl to look back to the time when first ou receied Him. @ouremember well what obstacles at that time there appeared to be in the wa of our belieing.There was first our ileness and guilt: it appeared impossible that the promise of pardon andloe could be for such a sinner. Then there was the sense of weakness and death: ou felt notthe power for the surrender and the trust to which ou were called. 3nd then there was thefuture: ou dared not undertake to be a disciple of /esus while ou felt so sure that ou could notremain standing, but would speedil again be unfaithful and fall. These difficulties were like

mountains in our wa. 3nd how were the remoed Simpl b the promise of od. That word,as it were, compelled ou to beliee that, notwithstanding guilt in the past and weakness in thepresent and unfaithfulness in the future, the promise was sure that /esus would accept and saeou. 1n that word, ou entured to come, and were not deceied: ou found that /esus didindeed accept and sae.

3ppl this, our experience in coming to /esus, to the abiding in Him. 5ow as then, thetemptations to keep ou from belieing are man. *hen ou think of our sins since ou becamea disciple, our heart is cast down with shame and it looks as if it were too much to expect that


36/40

/esus should indeed receie ou into perfect intimac and the full en9oment of His hol loe.*hen ou think how utterl, in times past, ou hae failed in keeping the most sacred ows, theconsciousness of present weakness makes ou tremble at the er idea of answering theSaiorAs command with the promise, >Lord, from henceforth - will abide in Thee.? 3nd when ouset before ourself the life of loe and 9o, of holiness and fruitfulness, which in the future are toflow from abiding in Him, it is as if it onl seres to make ou still more hopeless! ou, at least,can neer attain to it. @ou know ourself too well. -t is no use expecting it, onl to bedisappointed! a life full and wholl abiding in /esus is not for ou.

1h that ou would learn a lesson from the time of our first coming to the SaiorB Cemember,dear soul, how ou then were led, contrar to all that our experience and our feelings and eenour sober 9udgment said, to take /esus at His word, and how ou were not disappointed. He didreceie ou and pardon ou! He did loe ou and sae ou D ou know it. 3nd if He did this forou when ou were an enem and a stranger, wh do ou think, now that ou are His own, Hewill not much more fulfill His promise 1h that ou would come and begin simpl to listen to Hisword, and to ask onl the one +uestion: oes He reall mean that Ishould abide in Him Theanswer His word gies so simple and so sure: - am in Him? D it makes the abiding sosimple. -f, as - meditate, - reali=e clearl ow ! am in Him, - see at once that there is nothingwanting but 9ust m consentto be what He has made me D to remain where He has placed me. -am in )hrist: this simple thought, carefull, praerfull, belieingl uttered, remoes all difficultas if there were some great attainment to be reached. 5o, - am in )hrist, m blessed Saior. Hisloe has prepared a home for me with Himself, when He sas, >3bide in m loe? and His powerhas undertaken to watch the door and to keep me in, if - will but consent. - am in )hrist: - haenow but to sa, >Saior, - bless Thee for this wondrous grace. - consent! - ield mself to Thgracious keeping! - do abide in Thee.?

-t is astonishing how such a faith will work out all that is further implied in abiding in )hrist. Thereis in the )hristian life great need of watchfulness and of praer, of self2denial and of striing, ofobedience and of diligence. all things are possible to him that belieeth.? >This is the ictorthat oercometh D een our faith.? -t is the faith that continuall closes its ees to the weaknessof the creature and finds its 9o in the sufficienc of an 3lmight Saior that makes the soul strongand glad. -t gies itself up to be led b the Hol Spirit into an eer2deeper appreciation of whatwonderful Saior whom od has gien us D the -nfinite Emmanuel. -t follows the leading of theSpirit from page to page of the blessed *ord, with the one desire to take each reelation of what/esus is and what He promises as its nourishment and its life. -n accordance with the promise >-f


37/40

that which e hae heard from the beginning abide in ou, e also shall abide in the Son and inthe 4ather,? it lies b eer word that proceeds out of the mouth of od. 3nd so it makes thesoul strong with the strength of od, to be and do all that is needed for abiding in )hrist.
