The key to having faith for the Lost lies in your love for them. I always think, that could have been my child, my parent, my sister or brother. I always desire the best for my immediate family. You know God thinks this way continually. The closer you dwell in your heart to God, the more the love and eager yearning for the lost will develop.

Jeremiah 31:3

King James Bible
The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.

They that Oberve Lying Vanites Forsake Their Own Mercies

Even though the prophet Jonah, got out of the will of God by refusing to go to the city of Nineveh and giving them the word of the Lord, He made amends. You see he repented, and prayed to God in the belly of the whale. Jonah 2:4 Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple. Verses 7-10

7 When my soul fainted within me: I remembered the Lord and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.

8 They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.

9 But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the LORD.

10 And the LORD spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.

Had Jonah keep his mind on his dilemma, that would have been his end. He remembered the Lord, and his ability to grant mercy. He even declared that he would look again toward the temple. Now you look at God’s word and turn your attention away from that dilemma. Faith in the mercy of God must be developed.

Sent as a helper, sent as a guide, become more sensitive to his leadings on the inside. Yes the word is your compass, and your lamp as well, and it’s the Spirits assignment to bring the word to life; amplifying, expounding, and bringing greater insight. His position is to help bring things out of the darkness into the light. So as a faith child of a faith God, use your faith to sensitize your heart to him. Then become a recipient to a greater degree, of the Lord’s tender mercies because you believe.

John 14:16-17 ¹⁶And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; ¹⁷Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

A change has already occurred in the way we approach God In righteousness. Now it will bring a reformation in the way that you approach God. In the Old Testament man, because of his fallen nature, could not approach God because that sin worked death in man. God and sin can’t be on the same plane. That’s why we needed a Savior that could wash away our sins. Then we could have time to develop walking in Holiness and righteousness before him with out the wages of that sin hanging over our heads. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus. Romans 6:23
Throughout your Faith, you must believe the report. In doing so, your conscience will be clean, it will be purged of that dread of punishment. Then as your walking uprightly before God through Christ Jesus, you can just jump up into his lap and talk to him as a child would talk to his parent. This was God’s plan from the beginning

Hebrews 9:6-10
6 Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God. 7 But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people: 8 The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing: 9 Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience; 10 Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.

To those who look into the perfect law of liberty, and continue, there in, (the keys is to continue and not allow the wicked one to corrupt the text in your thinking,) this man or woman will be blessed, that is empowered to prosper in his deeds. James 1;25 That includes living until your satisfied.

Not to long ago, the devil challenged me on this part of the word. I had been preaching for the missionary evangelist group that I am a part of. I came home and found my dad, who was 86 at the time, lying in the floor in a pool of blood. He was conscious and I called EMSA and had him immediately taken to the hospital. While I was cleaning up that blood, there was so much all over the floor, the devil said I’m going to kill him. I said no your not! Jesus shed his blood for my Dad, so his blood will replace this blood devil! I LOCKED INTO THE PERFECT LAW OF LIBERTY. I Declared the word of God, night and day. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you and your house shall be saved, that includes my dad, Acts 16:31, With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation Psalms 91:16 that’s my dad, he’s not satisfied neither am I. We have the New Testament and Old Testament blessings amen? No weapon formed against me shall prosper and every tongue, ( that includes Satan’s) that rises up against me shall be condemned. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord. (Because I walk under covenant protection Isaiah 54:19. )Well he tried to fight my mind, but I countered him with the word of God, I didn’t cast out God’s word and begin to look at something else. My brothers and sisters, my Dad walked away from that hospital, he just had his birthday January 10th. My God is faithful to me, because I am faithful to his word. I have authority in my household, you can have it too. But begin to build these truths into your heart. It will take time, but it’s well worth the effort.

Psalms 103:1-6.

1 {A Psalm of David.} Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;

5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

6 The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
