There are many examples of faith in God's word the Holy Bible, and many things Jesus and the apostles did by faith; healing the sick, blind to see, lame to walk, deaf to hear, raising the dead, casting out demons, etc. And there are also many other things which Jesus did which are not written (John 21:25)
And there are
also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written
every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books
that should be written. Amen.
John 21:25 KJV
What is faith?
Now faith is
the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen
Hebrews 11:1 KJV
What a Scripture “Believing without seeing"
Jesus saith
unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are
they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
John 20:29 KJV
How can we believe without seeing?
So then faith
cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Romans 10:17 KJV
Can we see the wind?
No, but we can feel the wind and also see the effects
of the wind. In the same way we can feel and experience the changes within
ourselves, when we humble ourselves before God and repent. (A change of mind
from rejection of Jesus Christ to faith in Jesus Christ) to be sorry for who
you are and what you are, surrendering our lives into God's hands, believing
and trusting Jesus as Lord and Saviour through the crucifixion, death, burial
and resurrection. We are transformed by the Holy Spirit who teaches us all
things through Gods word, and prayer. This is the start of our journey and new
lives in Christ being born-again.
For we walk by
faith, not by sight.
2 Corinthians
5:7 KJV
We 'Overcome Doubt' by Faith in Jesus!
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.
Hebrews 11:6 KJV
In our own walk with God, our faith can be tested like
in the Book of Hebrews chapter 11, which is worth anyone reading as a great
example to all. When times are hard and we feel sometimes that no one cares,
it's then we must step up and exercise our faith in Jesus Christ alone.
Prayer – the greatest key of all! Seek God, pour your
heart out sincerely, we have many times with tears running down our faces.
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye
shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:For every one that asketh
receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be
opened.
Matthew 7:7-8 KJV
Stay in God's word -'The Holy Bible' there's love,
strength, comfort, hope, peace, joy, etc. Feed on God's word every day, you feed your belly with food and water, feed your
soul also.
But he answered
and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word
that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
Matthew 4:4 KJV
Jesus answered
and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will
love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
John 14:23 KJV
Keep Your Focus on JESUS!
With Blessing in Christ,
David & Gay
