I'd like to share a few points with you about the subject of faith.
Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
If you are a Believer, you know that the just (righteous) must live by faith. Faith in God. Faith in His Word and His abilities.
Romans 1:17 English Standard Version (ESV) 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”
Mark 11:22 “Have faith in God,” Jesus answered. 23 “Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them. 24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
We are to live using the God-Kind of Faith which means we believe what God says before we see natural evidence. Our faith is the proof that God said it.
Hebrews 11:1 11 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Many have the "Thomas-kind of faith". This means you only believe things when you see them. In the Kingdom of God, we are to walk and live by supernatural faith that believes God simply because He said it.
John 20:28 Thomas replied, “My Lord and my God!” 29 Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen Me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
2 Corinthians 5:7 for we walk by faith, not by sight.
Today as you go through your day, believe God because He said it. Your faith is the evidence of things not seen!
Until the next time, keep living by faith,
