Hebrews 11
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Reflection:
I’m sure you’ve heard of the saying “To see is to Believe”. This principle is opposite to what God wants us to practice. We may not know it but sometimes we agree to it. When we doubt that God can help us through anything we’re going through, we agree to it. When we worry about our problems, needs and priorities, we agree to it. When we choose to carry our burdens even though God said, “Come to me and I will give you rest.” we agree to it. When we ask God, WHY? we agree to it. Agreeing to that principle simply implies we don’t trust God enough for our lives.
What is Faith?
Faith as defined in the verse is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. This clearly rejects the principle mentioned above. Faith is your eyes seeing your problems get resolved. It is your perspective on how things would turn out no matter how gloomy and dark the situation may be. It is your CHOICE to trust God for everything in your life.
Luke 17:6
'If you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you.'
'If you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you.'
This is how powerful Faith in God is.
What is the Lord telling us?
TRUST in Him completely no matter what! Believe and Know that He is God and he’s in control of everything.
God Bless you.
