The Five Senses of Faith

Have you ever thought of the scariest thing if none of your senses functioned? It's just as if one could run crazy. No ability to see, hear, taste, smell, or feel. It is when you think of this that you know how important these senses are. One could say these senses are what connect a person from the spiritual world to the physical world.

As Sons and Daughters of God, we have Spiritual senses too, which we use to function as one having the Spirit of Jesus and living it too.

It is these senses that we are to use to live, right here on earth. I call them the five senses of faith.

I have heard people say we have six natural senses, and the sixth one is faith. But I say the sense of faith stands alone, and they are five in number.

The moment you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and you believe with your heart that God raised Him from the dead, then you are saved, (ref.: Romans 10:9). And you become a new creation, (ref.: 2 Corinthians 5:17), and the life you live is by the faith of Jesus, (ref.: Galatians 2:20). In other words Jesus becomes your life and life source, (ref.: Colossians 3:4).

As a result of this, just as Jesus is right now, so are we right here on earth, (ref.: 1 John 4:17). This also means that we are to function in His authority that He has given to us, because we are His body, (ref.: Ephesians 1:19-23).

Hold on, I'm getting close. 

So, faith is the acceptance of all that God gave to us. And what God gave to us is Jesus, (ref.: John 3:16). And we are to live and walk by faith, and not by sight, (ref.: Habakkuk 2:4; 2 Corinthians 5:7). And this should not be mere talk alone, but our action should portray what we believe, which is our faith, (ref.: James 2:26).

Now, through the meditation on Jesus on the word of God, this helps us bring out the ability of Jesus. In other words, we can see, hear, smell, taste, feel, just as Christ Jesus Himself.

We believe and then we function through His senses. This is where we see a healed person whereas to the physical person, he is sick. But because we see the person healed, we lay our hands on the person and the Spirit of Jesus flows through us to the person and the person receives it and gets healed. All because we believe and function in the senses of Christ Jesus.

This is the life of the Sons and Daughters of God, the life of Christ Jesus. We walk by the senses of Christ Jesus and not by the senses of the fallen world. By this, we show that we truly rest on Jesus.

God bless you and have a blessed day ahead.

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t? Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
