By Faith

By Faith

The Bible tells us that followers of Jesus live by faith not by sight:

2 Corinthians 5:7 (NIV)
For we live by faith, not by sight.

Hebrews 11:1-2 (NIV)

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for.

Here are some principles by Dr. David Jeremiah about faith that will help us on our journey of faith:

When we walk by faith, we walk in fellowship with God

Faltering faith is not failing faith

Faith is not about perfection. Faith is about direction

Delayed obedience to God stalls God's additional instructions

The power of our faith is found in the patience of our faith

Real faith always involves waiting

The building of our faith takes a lifetime but the birth of our faith takes just a moment
when we say yes to God
  

Read Hebrews 11 to get a great picture of what God considers to be real faith.

Remember to always live by faith and trust in the promises of God.
