Faith does not determine what is to happen, but God. Only an anthropocentric
generation like ours can think that what man desires, that in that which man
trusts, could result or come to create what the desires of his heart are.
The word of God clearly states that God is sovereign, that not two
sparrows fall, in the consent of our father, who from all eternity,
God has actively or passively determined all that is to occur. And while it
is true that my faith plays a role in what is my relationship with God,
in what is the peace with which I can live my Christian life,
in what is the peace that I can have at the time of prayer,
it is no less true that nowhere in the word we are taught that our
faith has a power. In our day it is said that when we proclaim
the word of power based on what my heart wants, that we activate a
force, the strength of faith, and that God is then committed to surrendering
us to what I have activated through that word. When I have created that
movement of what is the strength of faith. As many call it, the
reality is that God moves so his character determines nothing. No one other than
God has ever determined or counseled him for an event of the universe to take
place. God is the only wise, the only wise and eternal, God
who from all eternity conceived your whole plan of redemption the history of man.
I went into a story that I didn' t think, that I didn
' t write, that I didn' t start. And I' m
gonna come out of a story that I' m not gonna finish. Another
started it, another will finish it, and another is the one who controls
it. Trust him, he' s the sovereign. Sir.
