Operating in the Kingdom of Heaven with Almighty God’s Faith:
                                                             (Part A)

                   What is Faith?

                   Faith is a God given Gift.
                   Faith is a Grace given Gift from Almighty God.
                   “For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to
                   think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according
                   as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.” (Romans 12:3)

                   According to the book of Habakkuk the righteous will live be faith:

                   I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what
                   He will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. And the LORD
                   answered me, and said, write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may

                   run that readeth it.  For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it
                   shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it

                   will not tarry.  Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just
                   shall live by His Faith. (By the Lord Jesus Christ’s Faith the author and finisher of
                   all Faith.) (Habakkuk 2:1 – 4)

                   “And Jesus answering saith unto them have faith in God. For verily I say unto you,
                   that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast
                   into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things
                   which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.”
                   (Mark 11:22 – 23)

                   The Lord Jesus Christ is not saying, “Have Faith in God.” The Lord Jesus Christ is
                   saying have the Faith of my Father and your Father – My God and your God.

                                   st
                   The book of 1  Corinthians makes the connection between faith and spiritual gifts:

                       Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. Now
                       there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of
                       administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but
                       it is the same God which worketh all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit
                       is given to every man to profit withal. For to one is given by the Spirit the word
                       of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; To another
                       Faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; To
                       another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of
                       spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of
                       tongues. (I Corinthians 12:1, 4 – 10)
