Hebrews 11:1, Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Romans 10:9-10, That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
For the past three months, I have taught on faith using my Sunday School Commentary book and as the
From our scripture texts
(Romans 10:9-10), there is saving power in having faith. The faith that I am
speaking of here is a heart faith, believing without total being that yes,
there is a God and Jesus Christ is His Son who came to earth in human form to
sacrifice His life for humanity. In doing so, all who believe are assured of
everlasting life (John 3:16).
Faith is powerful enough
to save all who believe from being eternally separated from God, our creator,
and sustainer. Faith is powerful enough to cause us to persevere in our faith
journey with Jesus because this is an endurance race, not a sprint. While on
this faith walk, we will encounter some obstacles; having enduring faith, we
will conquer our enemy (Satan) because everything begins in the spirit realm.
This is A Persevering Faith because it enables us to continue regardless of how
rough the road may get. We can persevere because we have God the Holy Spirit
residing in us as our helper, comforter, and strength. We are more than
conquerors in Christ Jesus because: (a) Jesus has already overcome the world
(John 16:33), and (b) the God (the Holy Spirit) that is in us is much bigger
than the god of this world (1 John 4:4).
Therefore, have no fear nor doubt or worries because
Jesus Christ promised that He would be with us to the end of the world, and He
is. Have faith!
