JUST WHAT IS FAITH?

FAITH IS THE ASSURANCE OF THINGS HOPED FOR, THE EVIDENCE OF THINGS NOT SEEN.” HEBREWS 11:1

According to the dictionary, assurance is ‘ a positive declaration to give confidence; a promise.’ Faith is our ability to show our confidence is what our Lord has given us. It is our ability to believe, without seeing or touching, the promises of God in heaven. Our whole relationship with Jesus is built upon our foundation of faith.

According to the dictionary, evidence is ‘ the available body of facts or information indicating whether belief or proposition is true or valid.’ According to Hebrews 11:1 faith is the evidence of things not seen. It is by faith that the promises of God are true. Faith becomes the foundation of our existence in Christ Jesus. Without faith we have no confidence and no evidence of our relationship with him. We are spiritual beings and faith is our foundation. Our God’s declaration of promises and truths are our confidence. Faith is what we must have in order to believe in all of the truths that have happened throughout history.

Our God has given us promises throughout the bible. We are told that He never fails on a promise. His holy words are our confidence as they are God’s positive declaration. The promises of our Lord that materialize in our lives each day are our evidence. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
