What is Faith? Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed) and the evidence of things not seen [the conviction of their reality—faith comprehends as fact what cannot be experienced by the physical sense].(Amp) How to move by Faith 1. Faith is in the now Exodus 3:14 I am who I am 2. Faith Originates from God Mark 11:22 Have faith in God. In Greek, the verb is passive as to come from the outside Have God’s faith. Romans 10:17 so then faith comes by hearing, and by hearing the word of God. 3. Faith Perceives the Unseen Isaiah 46:9-10 Remember the former things of old, for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like Me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from the ancient times things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure 4. We all have been given a measure of faith Romans 12:3 For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith. 5. Faith loves the impossible 6. The Power of God is Faith Romans 4:20 [Abraham] He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was [endunamoo] strengthened in faith, giving glory to God. Romans 4:21 Abraham was fully convinced that what God had promised he was also able to perform. B. Sarah Hebrews 11:11 By faith Sarah herself also received strength [dunamis] to conceive seed, and bore a child when she was past the age, because she judged him faithful who had promised Sarah needed to receive power for her womb to become fruitful. Genesis 18:12 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, “after I have grown old, shall I pleasure, my LORD being old also?” 7. Faith Operates beyond Reason Hebrews 3:12 Beware brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God. I. Noah Hebrews 11:7 By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. II. Sadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego Daniel 3:25 Look! King Nebuchadnezzar answered, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the son of God. 8. Faith is Action James 2:26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
