The Requirements of Faith - Dr. Charles Stanley

The moment we're saved, God enrolls us in the school of faith. He understands that we don’t yet know how to live according to His principles and begins to teach us. We all have faith failures, but our patient and forgiving God continues to reveal His will and strengthen our trust in Him. Learn to listen to God in “The Requirements of Faith."

To the person reading this, no matter what God removes from your life, you can trust that it is His absolute best for you. Trust Him even (especially) when you can't trace Him ❤

[@eleasemeyer5961]

Amen🙏

[@Just_a_Reflection]

I believe that the Lord told me to distance myself from two people, and for good reason, though they both would be offended if I told them. When I was not diligent in doing so, and let them back into my life, the results were expectedly bad. He also told me not to engage in a certain activity, and when I vacillated he removed everything from my life with which I was using as an instrument of disobedience. Career, promising LLC, business and social contacts, subsequent good paying jobs, car, money, drivers license, my computer equipment, security of information, professional and community reputation, and almost my mental health. Worse, I am aware that I have been avoiding my calling. I feel like Jonah. In worldly terms, it appears that my life has been an escalating catastrophe over the last two years. But, now my relationship with God is like never before. I am intelligent, educated, talented, and well-versed in the Word, but I now only want to be who He called me to be, nothing more or less. But, the spiritual warfare that I am engaged with is very real and very intense, and it is not over. Please stand in agreement that I will be obedient and allow Him to use me, no matter the situation.

I can't thank you enough for writing this truth.

[@josephwiese1114]

He was a non-charismatic humble minister. A rarity today. His Biblical acumen is accurate, and easy to understand. We all need to understand the Word of God as he did.

[@raymondmelanson8145]

So sorry for you all that are still lost and blind in seeing Charles Stanley only one of the many famous wolves in sheep's clothing using scriptures to cunningly deceive this world. How else could they deceive anyone while still disciples and later calling themselves Christians(a learner, students of the Word) before actually been chosen to be saved converted redeemed and born again from above in the spiritual Church of Christ. Because once being chosen to be saved converted redeemed and born again from above in Christ spiritual Church, you cannot be deceived because the Holy Spirit(Christ) enters and resides in you from then on and become your witness that you been born again from above in the spiritual. No need to explain this to anyone, because the Holy Spirit enters and resides in our spirit's mind. The same mind we are all born in the flesh with. Very simply to say, if you never heard and felt the Holy Spirit entering and residing in you, He did not entered and does not reside in you!!! 😴😭

Heavenly Father God, forgive us for not trusting Your word. This world has fogged our vision of You and Your word, that we lack trust and our faith is obscured. You are mighty and the author of our lives. Clear our mind of all negativity so that we can clearly hear Your voice when You call on us to be obedient and do what You command. For this is for our greater good. This l pray in the mighty name of Jesus, Amen and Amen 🙏. God bless you today and always. Warm thoughts I send your way Raquel 🙋🏻‍♀️🙏📖🐑🌏🩷

[@nakabugoharriet1128]

Oh God, how I love Charles 's teachings. They're an inspiration to me.

[@raymondmelanson8145]

The first lesson for walking by faith is we are saved by the faith of Christ. Certainly not coming from us but a gift from God our Father in heaven! Just like the Word said in the scriptures! We are saved by grace through faith, and that not through yourselves, but a gift from God. How much plainly can it be said? It's been said in several verses in the scriptures of the original King James Bible but in the so many other translations by now of the King James Bible, the verses that said the faith of Christ is changed to faith in Christ. Even the new King James version now says the faith in Christ. It's no wonder all the physical bodied churches out there in the public are fallen into apostasy Christian believer churches! 😭

thank you! "In touch ministies" for posting this, I have been explaining the war to my children. They haven't accepted Christ yet, but this video is a shortcut to scripture and why this family in the Middle East aren't getting along. And why it's important to listen to God's instructions. Now I can just let them listen to the video. Mr Stanley does a better job than me! 😊

I needed this.. stumbled across it on the radio and can see all the holes in my faith. Thanks Pastor Stanley, we'll see you again.

[@HandyHanzelplumber]

Just the thought of offering my only son to God, got me tearing up.😢. But God permited his only son to die on the cross to pay for my sins. Thats how much he loves us. and Jesús Christ resurected with all the glory and power and its now my teacher, my saviour. I shall follow his footsteps until I die and meet God face to face. Dear reader,may God bless your home and family

Lets make it clear that we all have our own Egypt. It's simply disobeying the voice of Almighty God.

[@michaelthompson4949]

The two passages that always come to mind when hearing the phrase "go down to Egypt, is Isaiah 30: 1- 7 and 31:1-3. Apparently the "down" that precedes "Egypt" isn't geographical but a condition. Though this is a serious admonition from the Lord we can take solace in Psalm 30:5.

[@KarenMorais-z1w]

You are correct my brother it was as written in the Bible but it can also be anyplace that the Lord forbids. It refers to disobedience.

[@michaelthompson4949]

@@KarenMorais-z1w I agree completely. It seems the specific disobedience in this context would be reliance on our human/ worldly resources rather than the source (God).

[@KarenMorais-z1w]

Notice my brother many people didn't like because you have to get to that level of growth to understand what I meant. Thank God we grow from strength to strength.

Jeremiah 13:23 Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil. Matthew 25:21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. Hebrews 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

[@philg4116]

Stanley was clearly a good guy, but that doesn’t mean he could have avoided smooth-front castration in this life.

[@northernbettygirl]

what do you mean by that? Pastor Stanley is truly a man of God. He wasn't perfect, none of us are. I believe he is with Jesus today in Heaven. I am grateful for the sermons he gave us

[@jmsfaith2181]

[@KarenMorais-z1w]

Trying to really get what you mean. Pastor Stanley was not a perfect man but a man who strive for perfection.

[@philg4116]

To all who need more detail, it just means a cutting off the genitals flush with the groin surface, leaving the appearance of a Ken doll. It seems certain, had Stanley lived into the next era, that this would have been his fate.

I have asked God in Jesus Christ name to for give me,still empty why

[@InTouchMinistries]

Feeling empty after seeking forgiveness is not uncommon and can be due to various reasons. It's important to remember that forgiveness through Christ is a promise of God, and when you ask for forgiveness sincerely, God is faithful to forgive (1 John 1:9). The feelings of emptiness might not always immediately dissipate, but this doesn’t mean forgiveness hasn’t been granted. Dr. Charles Stanley emphasized the importance of trusting God's Word over our feelings. Our emotions can often mislead us, but God's Word is always true. It’s also important to seek God for a deeper relationship, as feelings of spiritual emptiness can sometimes indicate a deeper thirst for a more intimate connection with God. Dr. Stanley has a great "Ask Dr. Stanley" about this here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXimfISvrLGjptk I hope this helps!
