Faith Defined

Hebrews 11:1 
 " Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."  Our God given faith is so valuable to us. Faith gets us through the day, makes our nights sweet and In faith our souls sore in the presence of God's Holy Spirit. 
 Faith is the surety of things hoped for, what we know to be true; Our Heavenly Father and His plan for us is in fact reality. Reality now, you are a child of God on earth. Reality later, you will be a child of God in His perfect Heaven and live forever. 
 Faith is the evidence of things not seen. YOU are the evidence, living out your life every day in an exhibition of your faith. How do people see you? Would someone recognize by your actions and attitude that you are sure of what you hope for? If we know we have an awesome inheritance through our faith in Jesus this surety should be displayed in everything we say and do. every action of every Christian has eternal implications no matter how small or how great. Believers are eternal beings therefore we have eternal influence. Influence that changes lives forever, Influence that represents Jesus in our ambassadorship of our future Homeland of Heaven (2 Cor. 5:20). 
 What it all comes down to is the fact that your faith is not just for you. The first and greatest importants of faith is to bring Glory to God(1Pet. 1:7).The next is to keep us near God in every circumstance of our lives that we may overcome(1Jn. 5:4). Last is our declaration that Heaven is our home(Heb. 11:14) May our Father God truly grow your faith today
