Faith Is A Higher Law!

‘To demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.  Where is boasting then? It is excluded.  But what law?  Of works? No, but BY THE LAW OF FAITH’ (Rom 3: 26-27.

There are natural Laws and there are spiritual Laws as well.  Faith is a spiritual Law and a higher law functions above the natural laws.  Law is a rule of action.  Natural laws exist because the universe has a Creator God who is logical and has imposed order on His universe (Genesis 1:1). The Law of Nature is the will of God as "to human conduct, founded on the moral difference of things, and" discoverable by natural light (Rom. 1:20; 2:14, 15).

Jesus in His earthly ministry functioned above the natural laws.  He walked on the water, talked to the tree, commanded to storms and raging wind to be still, raised the dead, multiplied the 5 loaves and 2 fishes, healed the leaper and so on.  Even the believing disciples of Jesus Christ functioned in the higher laws as well before and after the death of Jesus Christ.  Peter walked on the water too.  Even the disciples were sent by Jesus to preach the Good News; cast out devils in the very Name of Jesus.  We read the Acts of the Apostles who were the disciples of Jesus in the book of Acts.  Jesus said in John 14: 12, ‘Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.’

As natural laws, spiritual laws also function.  Paul is exhorting us in his book 2 Cor 5:7, ‘for we walk by faith, not by sight.’  As children of God, who are born of God; we are called to walk by faith which is a higher law.  1 Cor 2: 5 says, ‘that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.’  Faith doesn’t work in your commonsense but in the spirit-realm.  Faith is given to the re-generated human spirit to live by faith, stand by faith, to walk by faith, and to pray and receive answer by faith.

Faith always works because Jesus said so.  If it is not working then it is not faith.  Natural Laws work whether you believe or work against it.  In the same way Faith works too! But understand the principle of faith and act accordingly to see the result.

NOW, FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things (we) hope for, being the proof of things (we) do not see (in the natural) and the conviction of their reality (faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses) (Heb 11:1 AMP).

Function by the Higher Law – The Law of Faith!
