Powerful Bible Verses About Faith to Help you overcome Difficult Times

 

What does the Bible say about faith? 

In Hebrews 11:1, faith is described as the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen.

Faith therefore is a firm conviction of things not visible to the physical senses, but are non-the-less real.

The dictionary also defines faith as confidence or trust in a person or thing.

God requires us to have complete trust and confidence in Him and His Word.

How is faith developed?

Bible faith is a gift and it comes from God, through His Word. Romans 10:17 states that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. 

Faith grows through consistent corresponding actions on the word of God.

Why faith is so important:

Some of the reasons why you need faith are:

•         That is the only way you can please God (Hebrews 11:6).
•         Faith gives strength to overcome adversities (Psalm 27:13).
•         Faith overcomes fear (Joshua 1:9).
•         Faith is the foundation for salvation (Ephesians 2:8).
•         It is the driving force of all achievements (Luke 1:37).

Life is full of unknowns, and only through complete confidence and trust in the Creator of life can you navigate through various situations and circumstances that may confront you.
