Is Your Faith Unmovable?
What is faith?: Hebrews 11:1-2
- FAITH: a) strong belief or trust in someone or something; b) belief in the existence of God: strong religious feelings or beliefs.
- FAITH (Greek) – In the Greek, the root word from which we get ‘faith, the noun is PISTIS, and believe’, the verb is PISTUEO. Faith means – belief, firm persuasion, assurance, firm as a conviction, faithfulness….
Why is faith important?: Hebrews 11:6
- Faith shows our love for God.
- Operating in faith no matter what it looks like or how you feel pleases God. God rewards those who seek Him consistently.
What must we do?: 2 Corinthians 5:7
- Faith knows that no matter what the situation, in our lives or someone else’s that the Lord is working in it. We must trust, have that confidence, that even though I may not be able to see it right now, I will trust the Lord!
- We can have faith in God’s Word because it will come to pass. – Isaiah 55:11
Where do you place your faith?: Psalm 20:7
- Know that God is your source and everything else is a resource and be careful not to mistake one for the other.
“Faith is a decision met with an action!” Translation, faith without works is dead. James 2:14-26.
Faith stands solid on two things – “hearing and speaking” and one does not work without the other!
- Romans 10:17, So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. You must always be mindful of what you speak, for the tongue has life and death in it.
- Proverbs 18:21, Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.
No matter your situation or whatever it is that you are believing the Lord Jesus for, use the power God has given you and Speak Life to your circumstance and believe God!
Remember FAITH the size of a mustard seed, Matthew 17:20 WILL move mountains AND if you believe and DO NOT doubt when you pray, Mark 11:24 assures us it will happen, but you have to believe and trust the Lord even when it’s not easy.
