Day 6

GOD doesn’t give details – He is not going to give you a blueprint for your whole life..
GOD will not tell where that money, promotion, & favour is coming from, how long it is going to take, & who will be there for us..
If you had all the facts you wouldn’t need any faith – GOD wants your courage: He wants your faith..!
He wants you to trust in Him alone..
Faith is the result of believing the Gospel! the good news that Jesus died for our sin and made a way for us to be right with God and spend eternity in heaven. When we allow the reality of the Gospel to affect every part of our lives, it changes the way we think which changes how we behave..
Faith causes us to act on what we haven’t experienced yet, to believe promises in the Bible that haven’t been fulfilled yet, and to trust God when our situations haven’t changed yet..
Ways Faith Changes Your Life Practically
– Faith in God gives you strength.
Faith gives you strength: the inner resolve to withstand turmoil. When we are right with God, we never go into turmoil alone. We have the Creator of the Universe on our side..
– Faith in God gives you courage.
Courage and strength aren’t the same things, even though they are often seen together. Courage is the ability to do what scares us, to act on our beliefs despite threats of danger, to show strength in face of grief or pain. Courage, like strength, comes directly from our faith in God..
– Faith in God provides stability.
We all want to persevere through the day without melting down or throwing a tantrum (despite how we feel at times). Faith in God is what allows us to experience stability in the middle of instability. When life feels out of control, we take comfort in knowing that God is in control.
“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 senses].…..”(Hebrews 11:1‬)
