God's Word on Faith
1. Lesson
- The Bible tells us that our Christian walk is a walk of faith.
- 2 Cor 5:7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.
- What is faith?
- Believing that God keeps His promises even when we cannot see it fulfilled yet.
- Heb 1:1 To have faith is to be sure of the things we hope for, to be certain of the things we cannot see.
- Just like when cannot see air, but we can trust that when we take our next breath, we will get what our body needs. Just like when we cannot see gravity, we can take a step knowing we won’t float away.
- What is our faith based on?
- How to move mountains?
- Jesus says that with faith, we can speak to mountains and they will move.
- Mark 11:23-24 For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.
- What are mountains?
- Any challenges we may face — problems, sickness, stress etc
- What do we have to do when we face mountains?
- Speak God’s promises to the problem (“Say to the mountain”; “Pray”)
- Believe what you say to the problem will be done
- Rest in Faith — know that God keeps His promises
- Where can we find God’s promises?
- In the Bible!
- When we are in trouble …
- “God is our refuge and strength, an ever present help in trouble.” Psalm 46:1
- "The Lord will keep you from all harm — he will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore." Psalm 121:7-8
- When we are afraid …
- “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give you. I do not give as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." John 14:27
- When we are tired …
- “He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak” Isaiah 40:29
- When we are sick …
- He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed. 1 Peter 2:24
- When we are in need …
- And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus. Phil 4:19
- When we pray, we speak what we believe — what God’s word says
- When you don’t feel well:
- “I'm not moved by what my body tells me. I believe what Christ said about me. He said that by His stripes I am healed, so I declare that I am healed.”
- When you are facing “mountains” or problems:
- “Problem, no matter how big you may seem to be, you are no match for the Christ in me. Be removed and be cast into the sea! For in Christ I have the victory.”
- Even when we cannot see God working yet, continue to believe that His Promises are true, and He is faithful and will never fail.
- Memory Verse: Heb 11:1 To have faith is to be sure of the things we hope for, to be certain of the things we cannot see.
