Faith
Faith Comes By Hearing and Hearing by the Word of God
We live it, we breath it, we speak it, Faith is the road we trod
We need it to please God and not to be fraud
By faith we believe that the earth is round
we believe in Him who created the trees and watered the earth from the ground
Faith can take you places, places you've never seen
you may see it now, yet you must first believe
Belief causes us to believe the invisible things in life
God is invisible and His Word creates no strife
By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death like us
By faith we choose the road less trodden, we go against the crowd, we boycott the bus
Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God
We live it, we breath it, we speak it, Faith is the road we trod
1. Faith Comes by Hearing 2. Faith Comes By Doing 3. In Faith we believe and not doubt 4. Without It (Faith) we cannot please God. [I want to please God, How do I do that? Faith is the prerequisite]
Hebrews 11:5-6
"But Without faith, it is impossible to please God, for he that cometh to God must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of those that diligently seek Him. Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."
Heb 11
By faith Enoch, By faith Abraham, By faith Noah, By faith Abel, By faith Moses,
Hebrews provides a great cloud of witnesses of those who walked by faith. Faith being the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen,
Not only is faith important, not only should we increase our faith in God; but without it (Faith) we cannot even please God. If it is my desire to please God, faith is the pre-requisite.
Faith is the force it takes to even believe in the very creation that serves us.
Lastly, if I want to please God, I must strongly understand that God works as a rewarder of those who seek Him. God will not forget my faith, your faith.
