God created us by the word of His power. We were born from dust and He breathed life into us. Our spirit being now lives and has the ability to commune with God. We were born with this capacity to live in the spirit although we are housed in our body. Our body is temporary but our spirit is eternal. Our body is earthly but our spirit is unearthly. This means all of us have been created as spirit beings. We are spirit beings on an earthly journey. We were created with senses to makes sense of our world. We also have spiritual senses to sense the spirit world. Our spirit senses are operated by faith. Whoever comes to God must come by faith. We cannot know God through our physical senses for they are earthly. God is spirit. We can only know Him through our spirit. Understanding God through our physical senses is only partial like knowing about the person than knowing the person. God has made it possible to know Him personally through His Son Jesus.
God says that whoever comes to Him must come by faith. This means we must acknowledge Him and trust Him for who He says He is, the Creator of the whole Universe. He is also our Heavenly Father. Jesus came to make known His Father so that we too can know Him. It is only by faith that we can get to know Him and call Him Abba, Father. Faith is the evidence of what we hope for. It is not blind. It is based on what has been revealed through His Son. Now we need to trust Him to become His sons and daughters. We are made righteous when we trust Him to save us from our sin. Our sin blinded eyes will become son sighted eyes when we trust in Him. What a glorious hope we have in Him. Now we can live by faith in His finished work on the Cross and be assured of eternal life.
