Faith

”Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”

Hebrews 11:1, KJV

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.

7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.

8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.”

Hebrews 11:6-8, KJV

Without faith it is impossible to please God.

Yet, with faith it is possible to move mountains:

20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.”

Matthew 17:20, KJV

All you need is a mustard seed of faith, and all things shall be possible for you.

22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.”

Matthew 21:22, KJV

Ask in prayer, believing, and you shall receive.

All of this is true.

But what to do if you haven’t got faith?

The Bible gives us this simple answer:

17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”

Romans 10:17, KJV

Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

This should motivate anyone to go ahead and study their Bible, daily.
