Scripture Reference: 2 Corinthians 5:6-10

As we continue on the path that our GOD has set for us, the faith that He alone knows what is best for us is the main ingredient we need to totally submit to His will for us. There are countless examples in The Holy Scriptures where those that truly believed by faith in Who they could not see, trusted in The GOD of our salvation despite what they saw in front of them and beyond what the human mind could even comprehend.

“But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”

‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭11‬:‭6‬ ‭KJV‬‬

First things first as this Scripture is very clear just as it is written.. we cannot even hope to please GOD without faith and in addition we MUST believe that through our faith in Him, He readily blesses us when we truly put Him first in our lives. His will for our lives, His grace that is more than enough for all of us, His well lit highway that leads to eternal life…

“By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith. By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went. By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: for he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God. Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.”

‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭11‬:‭7‬-‭11‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Final Thought: If ever we all needed an increase of faith in GOD, it’s right now! Where our feet may fail to move when GOD directs us to, where so many are stuck in a position of being stagnant, where anxiety about what tomorrow may bring stunts our growth and imprisons our minds, where hearts are broken and the Spirit of joy is more like fear.. we can be encouraged by GOD’s Word to throw caution to the wind and simply trust in Him! Trust His wisdom, trust in His guidance, trust in His understanding.. and take a leap of faith!!!

“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; And lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he shall direct thy paths.”

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭3‬:‭5‬-‭6‬ ‭KJV‬‬
