Text: Hebrews 11:1
We need faith in order to endure and serve the Lord.
Faith is not positive thinking. Faith has to include “God’s will be done.” Faith is not wishful thinking. Faith has an object. Faith is believing in one God. We take God at His Word and obey it no matter what the circumstance. Faith is moving ourselves out of the way and trusting God and His Word.
In order for us to stand on the things of God, we need faith. Faith is the assurance we have. . .the foundation of all we believe in. We have a confidence in Christ. We have an inner conviction that helps us to live our lives right. Faith is understanding and trusting in what Christ did for us.
What do you believe to be true? Where does your faith lie, today?
