Part One God’s Grace / Our Faith ( Ephesians 2: 8, 9)
- THE SOURCE OF FAITH – God the Son ( Hebrews 12: 2 ) God the Holy Ghost ( 1 Cor. 12:9 – Gal. 5:22)
- THE ENEMIES OF FAITH- WORRY-be careful of worrying, worry about nothing (Matt. 6:30). FEAR-will clinch your faith ( Matt. 14: 26) DOUBT-faith disperse doubt ( Matt. 14: 21) . LACK of PERCEPTION -pretending Christian ; little faith ( Matt. 16: 18 ) . DEEDS of the LAW – keeping the old law without the Holy Spirit (Rom. 3: 20: 31). MEAT and DRINK TEACHINGS ( Romans 14:17), WISDOM of the WORLD- finding logic that’s in worldly teaching. LACK of APOSTOLIC COMMUNICATION-specialist in teaching faith, faith comes from God -( 1 Thess. 3 : 9- 11) PRICKED CONSCIENCE- have a clear conscience and do good. ( 1 Tim. 1: 19). SEDUCING SPIRITS – forbidding ( which God created ) 1 Tim. 4: 1). NO WORKS- self serving jobs that they want. ( 1 Tim. 5:8). BROKEN VOWS- division by couples without faith). COVETOUSNESS- a strong desire or wish ( Luke: 12-15 ), PHARISAICAL FAITH- pretending and not being sincere about your faith ( 2 Tim.: 1-5 ).

Timothy knew what true faith was. He saw it in his grandmother, Lois and his mother, Eunice. What an powerful gift to pass on!!
It’s good to have a generational blessing instead of a generational curse.
#2 Worry and concerns: when we are putting our concerns in God’s hands, we need to let go…and if thoughts about them come up, tell the thought that it is in God’s hands and leave you alone!
