Gen 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
Do you know some actually think that God the father does not operate by faith?
Notice a few verses of the word of life:
Rom 4:17 � (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
Mk 11:14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
These two verses are examples of the law of faith being exercised.
Jesus expounded on this in verses 22-24 of the eleventh ch of mark, it is said that in verse 22 can also translated the God kind of faith.
Mk 11:22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
There you have an illustration of the father and the son exercising faith, according to the word of God.
Some act as if When God tells us how he operates, that it it diminishes who he is.
Jude we always Get the truth from the word of God.
Heb 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
Hey did everyone read this,this is insane.
The OMNIPOTENT GOD,woh SAID,HE SAID 'LET THERE BE LIGHT,and THERE WAS LIGHT'.
This same GOD who created man in His own image.
Let me See what this same GOD said to Job.Hmmmmmmmm

Job 38:3 Now gird up your loins like a man, for I will question you; and you teach Me.
Job 38:4 Where were you when I founded the earth? Declare if you know understanding.
Job 38:5 Who has set its dimensions, for you know? Or who has stretched a line on it?
Job 38:6 On what were its bases sunk? Or who cast its cornerstone,
Job 38:7 when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
Job 38:8 Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it burst out; it came forth from the womb?
Job 38:9 When I made the clouds to clothe it, and darkness its navel-band;
Job 38:10 and I broke My limit on it and set bars and doors;
Job 38:11 and I said, You shall come to here, but no further; and here your proud waves shall be set?
Job 38:12 Have you commanded the morning from your days, and caused the dawn to know its place,

Job 40:5 Once I have spoken, but I will not answer; yea, twice, but I will go no further.
Job 40:6 And Jehovah answered Job out of the tempest and said:

Job 40:9 And have you an arm like God; or can you thunder with a voice like His?

Job 40:13 hide them in the dust together; bind their faces in darkness.
Job 40:14 Then I also will confess to you that your right hand can save you.
I guess YHWH had FAITH,but Job did not.
Where in the world do you get such idiotic ideas from.
Oh it must be from The Rhama bible institute for non intelligent thinking.
Hey Phil,When you are OMNIPOTENT,you do not need faith,

George Job tells you what happened to him, it was operating the law of faith in reverse, it is called fear, and no his initial actions where not of faith, read the bible.
Heb 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

This does not say God had faith so we understand.
GOD does not need FAITH,to do anything.
We need faith just to tie shoelaces.
