Charles Stanley perfectly articulated the definition when he said…. “Faith is when you have more confidence in God’s character that you do in your own senses; you put more confidence in God’s promises that in your circumstances!” This is the epitome of Hebrews 11.
Many times if not every time, we choose not to believe God out of fear! We are simply afraid of what will or will not happen. History should tell us that God knows better than us. His track record should prove that He is trustworthy. His promises have never failed. My God is #undefeated!
If you do or do not receive the desires of your heart, what you are praying for, and/or disappointments come, God still knows what is best and HE IS FAITHFUL TO HIS WORD!
Search yourself and go deeper:
- What does faith mean to you?
- Do you think God is pleased with your faith?
- Read Hebrews 11.
- Ask the Holy Spirit to show you the areas of your life where you do not fully have faith in God.
- Pray.
