The muscles of faith

“Muscles” are organs that contain muscle fibers that contract to produce movement. Here it is what faith does. The writer here starts out our text by telling us there just isn't enough time or space to tell us everything that faith has accomplished. Even to the point where he lists only a couple of names and then gives examples of the actions of faith. To do right we can't do it in our own strength we need to exercise those faith muscles; vs. 33-35 shows several examples of the faith muscles being flexed for God's cause. We just need faith to obtain these promises. Build that faith up and we can obtain even greater promises. The lions in our lives will be silenced. That type of faith will put out the fire, and will put the enemy on the run! But it all starts with having the confidence in what He has said. Faith comes by hearing the word of the living God. Too many Christians though are starving to death spiritually and as such don't have the faith muscles to succeed. Do you need your faith muscles increased? All you have to do is ask, seek, and knock or work those spiritual bar-bells.
