Walking in Faith by the Spirit

For we walk by faith, not by sight [living our lives in a manner consistent with our confident belief in God’s promises]. (2Corinthians 5:7)

Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, walk in [union with] Him [reflecting His character in the things you do and say. Having been deeply rooted [in Him] and now being continually built up in Him and [becoming increasingly more] established in your faith, just as you were taught. (Colossians 2:6-7)

Through Him we also have access by faith into this [remarkable state of] grace in which we [firmly and safely and securely] stand. Let us rejoice in our hope and the confident assurance of [experiencing and enjoying] the glory of [our great] God [the manifestation of His excellence and power]. (Romans 5:2)

Such hope [in God’s promises] never disappoints us, because God’s love has been abundantly poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us. (Romans 5:5)

Whatever happens, my dear brothers and sisters, rejoice in the Lord. I never get tired of telling you these things, and I do it to safeguard your faith. (Phillippians 3:1)

Rejoice in the Lord always [delight, take pleasure in Him]; again I will say, rejoice. (Phillippians 4:4)

For the raging roar of stormy winds, mountains may tremble when the sea erupts crashing waves but cannot erode our faith in you. Selah (Psalm 46:3)

Only [be sure to] lead your lives in a manner [that will be] worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I do come and see you or remain absent, I will hear about you that you are standing firm in one spirit [and one purpose], with one mind striving side by side [as if in combat] for the faith of the gospel. (Phillippians 1:27)

Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the [Holy] Spirit who is from God, so that we may know and understand the [wonderful] things freely given to us by God. We also speak of these things, not in words taught or supplied by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, combining and interpreting spiritual thoughts with spiritual words [for those being guided by the Holy Spirit]. (1Corinthians 2:12-13)
