 Faith
What is faith?
Some would say that it is believing only what one can
see, feel, touch or taste.
But I say nay this is not what faith is all about.
For faith is:
The supernatural power that sustains us through life.
It is the delicious fruit of the Spirit that satisfies
our spiritual hunger.
Faith is the clear looking glass into Heaven that gives
us unshakable hope,and is the golden key to answered prayer.
It is believing without seeing with human eyes,the seeing
with the eyes of the spirit the invisible things of God.
It is hearing God's voice with the ears of an open heart.
Faith is knowing things that are not of hearing,seeing,
or touching with our human senses.
It is the firm foundation of salvation,and the song of
the soul that leads us down the road of righteousness.
It is our strength when we are not strong,and is our weapon
against the attacks of Satan,and the guiding light of our
testimony to the world.
Faith is the assurance of our success in Christ,an
indispensable element in our lives,and our fundamental
duty to our loving God.
It is united with love to make us serve Christ and His church.
And it is by faith that we are justified,sanctified and cleansed
in the holy blood of Christ.
Donavon Scott Vinson

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,
the evidence of things not seen." Hebrews 11:1 KJV

"...Believe in the Lord your God, so ye shall be established..."
2 Chronicles 20:20 KJV

"Then they said unto him,What shall we do that we might work the
works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them,
This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."
John 6:28,29 KJV

"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

"Above all, taking the shield of faith,
wherewith ye shall be able to quench all
the fiery darts of the wicked." Ephesians 6:16 KJV

"And whatsoever we ask,we receive of him,
because we keep his commandments,
and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
And this is his commandment,
That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ,
and love one another as he gave us commandment." 1 John 3:22,23

"And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness,
which is of the law, but that which is through the faith
of Christ,the righteousness which is of God by faith."
Philippians 3:9 KJV
