Hebrew 11:1-16

The capsule message of this passage resonates one thing: have faith in God, His scripture, the leaders He appoints, His desire to do good in your life.

We may not always understands His will, but when the time comes and He tells you to do something, will you obey and go about in faith?

What do you hope for?

What are you certain is/will be even though you have yet seen?

All these questions should spur you on to know that God is pleased with faith! I believe He is pleased, because it helps us grow in our trust in Him, our Father. Small steps of faith can lead to bigger steps of faith as we are shown time and time again God is for us and not against us...and He has used these times to glorify Himself.

I pray that if God is speaking something to you about something, you will take the risk to know Him, obey Him and love Him. It can be scary, but it's worth it and better than what you could have ever planned for your own well-being (Isaiah 55:8-9). Sometimes, we may not see the fruit of our faith in this lifetime, but we can always ask Him when we get there. :)

v1 is a great verse isn't it? another word for faith is confidence.

so much happens when we elevate the CONFIDENCE level in our lives.
