The Bible defines faith as the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1). Simply put, it is what gives us a conviction about things we can’t see. More importantly, faith in God is the essence of Christian living. For without it, it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6).
Life is filled with occasions for us to exercise faith in God. We all experience overwhelming situations, at one time or another. They may include serious illness, financial struggles, ministry challenges, overwhelming personal issues, etc. In this life, not one us is self-sufficient. That means there will be times in our life when exercising faith in God is not an option but a must.
Faith enables us to understand and embrace biblical teachings or biblical declarations that defy human logic. For instance, “Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God….” (Hebrews 11:3, KJV). If we require everything about God to satisfy our human logic or understanding, we won’t be able to walk with God. That’s why Christians need to regularly hear and read the Word of God to deepen their faith.
