Faith in the body uses the power that is in the Head. It is the province of faith to recognize what is in Him, and to act upon it.
If our hearts are not constantly reckoning on the present love and power of Jesus to be exercised towards us, the memory of the past will never help us; for memory is not faith.
Faith is a present dependence on God.
Whatever faith looks to Christ for, faith will get.
We use the goodness of God today: to-morrow comes, and We throw ourselves back on our own resources through unbelief.
