Genesis 12:1 Now the LORD said to Abram, “Go forth from your country, And from your relatives And from your father’s house, To the land which I will show you; 2 And I will make you a great nation, And I will bless you, And make your name great; And so you shall be a blessing;

Through the sacrifice of Jesus, all of our needs and desires have been made available to us. Our faith is the tool we use to obtain these promises (Romans 4:13-16). From the time we asked, to the time we physically receive a promise, there are some faith-filled instructions we must follow.

Faith-filled instructions are instructions given by the Holy Spirit that can lead us to the promise we desire. It takes faith to believe Jesus made the promises of God available to us, but it also takes faith to follow-through with the instructions given to us by the Holy Spirit.

For instance, we ask God and have faith for a new car. Three months after we asked, the Holy Spirit may instruct us to go to a car dealership on the other side of town on a Monday evening after work. On the surface, some of us may question if it’s really the Holy Spirit due to the fact that there was a significant delay in receiving these instructions and these instructions are an inconvenience. However, if we go past our comfort zone and believe, these instructions may set us up for our new car. If we’re willing to obey, the Holy Spirit may have us meet with a salesperson who is a friend of the family who can not only sell us the new car we desired, but sell it to us for $3,000 lower than we were willing to pay.

By obeying these faith-filled instructions, we can be led to receive every promise of God.
