Host: Keith Moore
Date: September 22, 2025

Overview

In this episode of Faith School, Brother Keith Moore continues the extensive series “Faith for Provision,” now in its 18th reason for why abundant provision is always God’s will for every believer. This session, centered on Galatians 3 and the biblical topic of covenant, emphasizes that believers are redeemed from the curse of the law and brought into the blessings of Abraham through Christ. Moore teaches how understanding God's will, as revealed in scripture, is fundamental to strong, unwavering faith – especially regarding provision and overcoming lack.

Key Discussion Points

1. The Purpose of Faith School & Growth in Faith

• Spiritual Growth: Every believer, like a newborn, starts as a spiritual baby and needs the “milk of the Word” to grow stronger in faith (00:40).
• Building Faith: Feeding on the anointed Word of God is essential because it conveys God’s will and imparts faith for victorious living (02:10).
• Quote:

  “Man doesn’t live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds... out of the mouth of God.” – Keith Moore (02:30)

2. Faith for Provision – The Necessity of Knowing God’s Will

• Emphasis on God’s Will: You cannot have faith for what you are uncertain is God’s will. Faith begins where the will of God is known (04:25).
  • Doubt and wavering are barriers to receiving from God (James 1:6–7 discussed at 04:45).
• Scriptural Foundation: God’s will is revealed in His Word, and He does not change (06:05).
• Quote:

  “How can we know His will? His Word reveals His will.” – Keith Moore (06:35)

3. 30 Reasons – Scriptural Proof of God’s Will for Provision

• Progressive Argument: Moore is in the midst of presenting 30 biblical reasons why abundant provision is always God’s will (07:15).
  • List so far includes: God as Shepherd, God’s goodness, the fatherhood of God, the covenant, the names of God, the promised land, provision in the wilderness, and more (10:10).
• Psalm 23 Focus:
  • “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.” (various translations discussed, 08:00–09:30)
  • Quote:

    “Where is poverty in that? Where is lack in that?” – Keith Moore (09:40)

  • Challenges doctrines that suggest lack is sometimes God’s will (10:00).

4. Addressing Doctrines of Lack and Poverty

• Countering Religious Teachings: Moore strongly critiques the idea that poverty or minimalist living is somehow more spiritual.
  • “We never saw El Cheapo!” – (11:40, in reference to the names of God)
  • God’s own standards are abundance – heaven is described as filled with unimaginable riches (12:05).
• Quote:

  “If you’re big into poverty and lack, you’re not going to enjoy heaven, right?” – Keith Moore (12:10)

5. The Covenant of Blessing – Old Testament to New Testament

• Covenant Theme:
  • God has always related to His people through covenant (Noah, Abraham, David, Israel) (13:00).
  • The greatest benefit is that, in the new covenant, we’re joint-heirs with Jesus (16:00).
• The Role of Obedience and Spiritual Growth:
  • This life is a “faith school” where we learn to be led by the Spirit, walk in faith, and prepare for our eternal role. (17:35)
  • Reward in God’s kingdom is based on our works and obedience, not our salvation (18:20).
  • Quote:

    “Our righteousness is not based on our works, but our reward is.” – Keith Moore (18:25)

6. Galatians 3:13–14 – Redeemed from the Curse

• Scriptural Focus: Christ has redeemed believers from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us (19:05).

  • Many Christians don’t understand what they’ve been redeemed from, leading them to accept lack or suffering unnecessarily (20:30).

• Importance of Knowing the Curse:

  • If you don’t know what the curse is, you can’t know what you’re redeemed from, making you vulnerable to the enemy (21:40).
  • The enemy uses ignorance to steal and destroy, but knowledge of redemption brings freedom (22:10).
  • Quote:

    “Are you redeemed? … From what?” – Keith Moore (20:45) “Jesus said, you’ll know the truth, and the truth will make you free.” – Keith Moore (22:25)

• Christ as Substitute:

  • Jesus became a curse for us on the cross, fulfilling Old Testament prophecy. He bore the curse so the “blessing of Abraham” could come to us (23:00).
  • The cross, compared to the “electric chair” of the day: an object of shame, not jewelry (24:05).
  • Quote:

    “He didn’t just empathize with it [sin]; he became it.” – Keith Moore (25:10)

  • The work of redemption means we enter an eternal, unbreakable covenant with God through faith in Jesus (26:30).

7. Implications of Redemption:

• We are “redeemed, and … blessed” (27:30).
• Understanding our position changes our expectations: we no longer expect lack, but blessing and provision.
  • Quote:

    “Come on, say it out. I have an eternal covenant with the Almighty God the Father. By my faith in Jesus, Amen. I have an eternal covenant.” – Keith Moore (26:55)
