HEBREWS 11:1-3 

Faith in Action

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for.
By faith, we understand that the universe was formed at God's command so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.
 
 

Meditation

 
(1st) It is the belief in God against the world. The Christian attitude is that in terms of eternity, it is better to stake everything on God than to trust the rewards of the world. 
 
(2nd) It is the belief in the Spirit against the senses.   The senses say, "Take what you can touch, taste, handle and enjoy." The senses tell us to grasp the thing of the moment; the Spirit tells us that there is something far beyond that. The Christian believes in the Holy Spirit.
 
(3rd) It is the belief in the future against the present. Long ago, Epicurus said pleasure has become the chief end to life. But he did not mean what so many people think he meant. He insisted that we must take the long view. The thing that is pleasant at the moment may bring pain in the long run; the thing that hurts like fury at the moment may bring joy in the long run. The Christian is certain that in the long run, no man can exile the truth for 'Great is truth, and in the long run, she will prevail.'
 

 

Life Application

Let faith take hold of your day and watch what God can do with it.
Trust God's attention to all that you need.

 

Praise/Prayer

 
Hallelujah! How great is our God! Great is His love both now and forever for His children. "Trust and obey, for there's no other way."
"Dear Father, help me to trust You for everything You have promised in the Bible. I pray that Christians all over the world will remain strong in their faith, trust and hope in You, especially during this testing time. Amen!"
