Word of God vs current reality
Space of tension in the between
Qvh
Existing in faith
Be bold to pray in faith
Faith is being certain in the unknown
Living in the space of tension
Aka space of faith
So used to dropping the other end of the rope
Everyone has dropped a bit of faith in truth
Everyone has dropped it for someone else
Holding firm in two realities
Stability … Abram GEN 15:6 is stable in faith in God
Gen 12 to 15 is 14 years
25 years of stable faith before the promise was fulfilled to have a child
Abram waited 16 years after Ishmael for Isaac
Sarai offered Abram the apple of control
Abram chose to control the situation
God does not shame or abandon Abram
Still blesses Ishmael
Still fulfills God’s original promise for Isaac
Not perfect endurance
Not perfection
Return to trust
Allow God to restore my dropping of the rope
God give me strength to endure the tension I tried to get out of
This is biblical faith
Control is trying to resolve tension on your own
Faith is allowing tension to resolve in trusting God
When waiting feels unbearable
We give up faith for control
Without faith, it is impossible to please God
Help me with my unbelief
