Surrender

Faith is knowing and believing what He said (Logos ) and is saying
7
(Rhema , ), living it and when asking for anything reminding Him, like
8 9
pointing back at a mirror, what He said. Therefore, you agree with me
you do not need to “grow” in your faith in Him because Faith AL-
READY IS. That is why even a mustard seed like faith is enough.

This right here is what sets us (who follow and have a relationship with
Christ) apart from all other forms of religion.

So, what has He said?

This is the fun part! Where you get to sit down and know Him for your-
self! Talk to Him, ask Him questions, LISTEN to Him, and read His
written Word as He directs you.
I will highlight a couple of things that are the core of this chapter and
this book.

He Is Your Father
I was brought up by a single mum who loved me dearly. So much so
that I never felt anything was wrong with our family until the neigh-
bourhood children started asking me who my father was. After several
of them asked, I became curious too. And so, I went ahead and asked
my mum. Her response, “Your father is in heaven.” And when she quickly
realized that this would lead to more questions than she was ready to
answer, she added, “Your Father is God.”
I asked, “But mum, I mean the kind of father that Papa has?”

7 The general Word of God that communicates His ability to do something or His general
will on a matter
8 The Word the Holy Spirit quickens to a specific person for a specific situation. Always
backed up by logos and/or a person.
