Faith

"Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the
word of God."
..........Romans 10:17

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped
for, the evidence of things not seen."
..........Hebrews 11:1

"Without faith it is impossible to please Him,
for he who comes to God must believe that
He is, and that He is a rewarder of those
who diligently seek Him."
..........Hebrews 11:6

"This is the victory that has overcome the
world, even our faith."
..........1 John 5:4

Faith pleases God!
Faith is believing what God says and that
pleases Him.
As we listen to His Word, the Holy Spirit
makes faith come alive in our hearts.
Faith is active.
To exercise faith is to diligently seek after
God, agreeing with His Word and saying
what He says.
This is how we receive the promises in His
Word.
Faith is substance.
The Greek word for substance refers to a
title-deed to a piece of land.
When we possess the title-deed to a thing,
we know that thing is ours.
We have a positive expectation, a joyful
anticipation, that we are going to see that
thing and enjoy its benefits.
As we believe the Word of God for any of
His promises, we can expect to see it happen.
Faith for all of God's promises is believing
and receiving the victory Jesus has won
over sin and death.

LORD, Thank You for Your Word!
It causes faith to arise within us. We will
exercise this faith and seek after You with
all our hearts, knowig that it pleases You.
By faith, we receive the victory Jesus won
for us over sin and death.
By faith, we possess the title-deed to our
healings, finances, joys, safety and all the
promises of God and we wait expecting
them to appear.
..........In the name of Jesus!
