Tag: Bible verses about having faith

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-21-24

Matthew 17:20 (NKJV) 20 So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.

Faith is something that we all need to be walking in. This verse is a good reminder for us all today.

Life can take its toll on us at times and cause our faith to get pushed down. It can make us feel like, “what just happened to me?”.

Life. That’s what just happened.

You just never know what we will be facing from one day to the next. And when hard times hit, our faith is surely tested.

Having faith despite what we see or hear going on in our life is really a great opportunity to see God move in our very scary situation!

If we have just a tiny bit of it, nothing is impossible.

That’s awesome news because God has dealt (given to) each of us a measure of this much-needed faith to move mountains with.

We cannot do the impossible without having faith in Him. We need this faith moving, active, and working in our lives daily!

Romans 12:3 (NKJV) 3 For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.

When hard times come and we are facing the most devasting thing we have ever had to face, remember that faith in God will help us get over to the other side of whatever we are facing.

What is it today we are needing God to help us with?

Have faith in Him. And whatever He guides us in doing, do it.

We should not talk ourselves out of it or doubt His guidance.

We need to follow Him; stick to Him like glue. He will walk us through it all. Step by step!

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-2-23

Hebrews 11:1 (NKJV) 1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

When we obey God’s will rather than our own, we do so having faith that He will produce the evidence, or results, of our obedience as we step out into the unknown.

We submit our plans and our future to God and trust Him. That’s faith in action, letting Him guide our steps without knowing the end result in advance. We just take it step by step.

Following Jesus often means forfeiting our plans, submitting our heart, our desires and our way of thinking, and taking on a whole new way of living.

Want to see the evidence of things not seen? Want to be a successful and powerful child of God? Let Him lead us in our daily walk.

We may say, “how?. How does the Lord lead us?”.

Through His word, the Holy Bible, which is our guide.

And He also sent us a Helper to bring understanding. The Holy Spirit will help us and give us power and strength over our fleshly desires.

Through His anointing power we will obey God rather than our own desires, and find ourselves walking in such faith and holy living.

1 Peter 1:15-16 (NKJV) 15 but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, 16 because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”

Where are we in our lives today? Do we have the faith to step out and submit our plans to Him?

God, help us to trust You in a deeper way.

Bible Verse of The Day – 10-24-22

Hebrews 6:15 (NLT) 15 Then Abraham waited patiently, and he received what God had promised.

Oh, what we can learn from Abraham!

Many times over the years I have heard people refer to “the patience of Job”.

But I have never heard anyone mention the patience of Abraham!

In reality, it was Job’s faith that brought him through his ordeal; his battle with the enemy and the bodily attacks he endured.

Abraham, on the other hand, had patience.

When God promised Abraham that He would make him a great nation, Abraham was 75 years old (Genesis 12:1-4).

By the time Isaac, the child that God had promised him, was born, Abraham was 100 years old. Now that’s patience!

Don’t get it wrong; Abraham was far from perfect. And his wife, Sarah, was just as bad, as she encouraged Abraham to have a child with her maidservant after waiting 10 years or so.

In the end, though, God was faithful as He always is, and Sarah conceived a son in her old age. And Abraham held on for that promise, knowing that God would somehow make His promises come to pass.

Let’s try to put ourselves in Abraham’s shoes for a minute or two.

How would we have handled his situation? Would we have endured long enough to allow God to carry out His plan?

Many of us don’t want to wait 25 minutes, never mind 25 years. But as we mature in Christ, we usually learn that God’s word is true, and His promises are worth holding onto because He is faithful.

And with our maturity, we begin to understand that God’s timing is almost never the same as ours. That’s the biggest thing we can learn when it comes to trusting God and waiting on Him.

Trust God. Wait on Him. It’s not necessarily easy. But it’s God’s plan and His way that we need to follow, not ours!

Bible Verse of The Day – 10-10-21 – And It Will Move

Please click to watch the video now.Greetings in the name of Jesus! 

The disciples of Jesus had failed at casting a demon out of someone, so they asked Him why. 

Jesus answered them. But that answer wasn’t quite what they had expected. 

In our newest video, And It Will Move, we teach about what Jesus said to them, and why it’s important to us, even now, thousands of years later. 

We hope you’ll take a few minutes to give this one a watch. 

Please click here to watch the video now. 

We love you all! 

Enjoy the rest of your day.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-31-21

Matthew 9:28-29 (NKJV) 28 And when He had come into the house, the blind men came to Him. And Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They said to Him, “Yes, Lord.” 29 Then He touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith let it be to you.”

These two blind men needed healing. Jesus just asked a simple, but very profound question; “Do you believe that I am able to do this?”

If Jesus were to ask us today regarding our own situation, what would be our answer?

They could have said, “well, let’s see how it goes and then we will answer you.”

No. These men knew He was able. Their faith in Jesus was at the point of receiving their healing. There was no doubt about it.

Are we believing by mouth alone? Are we mimicking someone else’s words that we’ve heard?

Or do we believe because the faith we have in our own heart knows that He is able?

You see, there are no coat-riding healings with Jesus. We have to have our own faith.

There may be times when our faith gets combined with the faith of others to get certain results. But if it’s for us, or our situation, we have to start the process by having faith at least the size of a mustard seed.

Matthew 17:20 (NKJV) 20 So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.

This is a very important question, and only we can answer it.

Many people can and will fake it. They know the talk.

They know how to put their hands up and praise God. They know the church lingo. But, none of that will work to get answers, deliverance, salvation, etc.

It’s according to our faith. Let it be done.

We must believe He is able to do what we are asking Him to do.

If we need God’s help to have more faith, ask Him and He will help us in our unbelief. But, don’t try to fake it. That won’t get us anywhere but disappointed. And it will turn us away from Him, thinking He doesn’t answer our prayers.

Mark 9:24 (NKJV) 24 Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!”

He will help us have the faith we need when we acknowledge that we need His help and we ask Him for it.

Have faith so He can deliver! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-24-21

Matthew 9:22 (NKJV) 22 But Jesus turned around, and when He saw her He said, “Be of good cheer, daughter; your faith has made you well.” And the woman was made well from that hour.

Jesus was following a man that had just asked Him to come and lay His hands on his daughter that had just died, so that she may live.

On His way to do so, along came a woman that had suffered a flow of blood for 12 years. She knew in her heart and said to herself, “if I could only touch HIs garment I would be made well”.

I love how Jesus said, “be of good cheer, daughter, your faith has made you well”.

Hallelujah and praises to His awesome name!! He called her daughter.

What a beautiful moment that must have been for her. I can’t even imagine what I would have done. But I can feel the overwhelming awesomeness of a little bit of what she might have felt.

Then, for her to receive her healing, after 12 years of dealing with her illness, wow, what a glorious day it was for her!

The thing that stood out to me the most was that He didn’t say, “because you touched My garment you have been made well”. He didn’t say, “because you are standing next to Me you have been made well”.

He said, “your FAITH has made you well!”

What I’m saying is that it is crucial for us to understand that no matter where we are today, or what we are going through or dealing with, it is by our faith we will be made whole.

Maybe we need a physical touch. Maybe our children or our marriage need healing. Maybe our finances need help. There are so many areas of our lives that might need to be “made whole”.

Whatever we are dealing with, say it with me, “by our FAITH we will be made well”!!

Thank you, Lord! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-18-20

Romans 10:17 (NKJV) 17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

God’s word is what helps us to walk in faith. If we don’t have His word in us, the faith we have will be weak. We need to be constantly building it up by keeping His word fresh and new in us.

We’ve got to be hearing Him and what He is saying through His words. And in order to do this, we’ve got to make an effort to spend time reading it and soaking it up.

You know, like one of those books we enjoy and can wait to get home and read. All day we think about getting home so we can get back into it. That’s how the Bible needs to become for us.

It has to be THE book that has priority. The book that calls our name. The book that speaks to us even when we’d rather be doing something else.

Read its words. Stay connected, and we won’t get off track.

We will see change come to us and our situation as we begin to grow in our faith.

WE have to do it, though. No one else can grow our faith for us. Read, and read some more. Hear what it is that God is saying in His word. Take it to heart and enjoy it!!

This book was written for us. It’s our faith builder! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-13-20

Matthew 14:29-30 (NKJV) 29 So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. 30 But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”

Are we looking at things all wrong?

When we face hard times, we can’t look at it as “poor me. I’m all done and washed up. I’m going to lose everything. I’ve failed”.

We have to change the way we see things. Why do we get scared when an opportunity comes and we need Christ to help us? Is it because we don’t like not knowing how it will all play out?

Peter stepped out of the boat and walked on water. Now, think about that. Who walks on water? It’s an impossible thing to do, because as soon as you step out onto it, you sink. Gravity pulls you down Immediately.

But with Jesus, He makes what is known to be impossible, to become possible through our faith in Him.

We all have that chance to step out of the boat from time to time.

When we are faced with hard and impossible situations, it is a great opportunity to see where we stand in our faith. It’s a great opportunity for God to help us and show us how He can make the impossible be possible.

If we are facing an impossible situation, there may be a step we need to take, just like Peter. And then we need to hold our faith after we do it.

Don’t start analyzing things, or we will lose it.

Keep our eyes and ears on Christ. He will help us through it all the way if our faith is in Him and we follow.

Take this opportunity and enjoy seeing the impossible become possible! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-6-20

Luke 17:5 (NKJV) 5 And the apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.”

In the verse above, the Apostles asked Jesus for more faith so they could walk out the things He was speaking to them about.

Jesus looked at them and flat out ignored their request. Why?

Because, as He told them in the next verse, they didn’t need more faith! They just needed to exercise the faith they already had.

Jesus went on to tell them that if they had faith even as small as a mustard seed that they could do great things!

Luke 17:6 (NKJV) 6 So the Lord said, “If you have faith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.

You see, so many of us ask God to give us more faith. But it’s not more faith that we need. We need to learn to walk in the faith that God has given us. We need to grow closer to God so that the faith He has given us will grow stronger in Him.

Some might go so far as to say that they have no faith. But that’s a misconception or a lack of understanding on their part, because the word of God tells us that we have each been given a “measure of faith”.

Romans 12:3 (NKJV) 3 For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.

This means that not a single one of us lacks faith. We just might not know how to use that faith yet. But as we press in to God, He will teach us and show us, as He leads us to do the things He wants us to do.

Remember Peter, who actually walked on the water? He did that with the measure of faith that he had been given, not with some massive burst of faith that was suddenly given to him.

He simply had to obey what Jesus told him to do when He called him to step out of the boat onto the water.

At that split second, he was probably experiencing many things, but he ignored any doubts he had and walked on the water. It was only when he began to think about what he was doing that he began to sink.

So it is with us. It’s important that we get so close to God that when He speaks, we don’t hesitate or try to figure it out in our heads. We just simply listen and then do what He asks of us.

That doesn’t happen overnight. But as we grow closer to Him, it happens a little at a time.

And before we know it, we will be stretching and growing our “measure of faith”, doing the things that God asks us to do with no hesitation at all.

Our newest video, The Increase, is live and ready for you to watch it! 

In today’s video, we discuss when Jesus rejected the disciples’ request for Him to give them more faith.

Please click here to watch it now. 

Enjoy your day and keep pressing in to God.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-30-19

Hebrews 3:14 (NKJV) 14 For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end,

Having faith is not for just a moment. It is throughout our entire walk. It is for us to have, breathe and walk in daily.

Knowing that what God says is true, His entire word, and then walking in it, is being steadfast and confident to the end.

Faith can be fragile sometimes. This is evident when trials come and we begin to falter because of it. This happens if we are not staying in God’s word or sticking close to Him through prayer.

Faith can get lost in the hustle and bustle of life and it can cause us to become hard, as we step out of God’s call or plan for us.

Hardness will often come as a result of sin in our lives. As we step away from God, sin is more easily embraced because the conviction of the Holy Spirit isn’t as strong as when we are close to Him.

There is protection when we stay close to God; A sharper discernment and a quick resistance to sin.

There is a provision that happens when we continue to walk in faith, believing Him for things we could never do through our own natural ability.

As believers, the closer we walk with Him, the more we will step out in faith and do what God is saying to do. And the more we will grow and become confident in God. We will learn about timing, and how to wait on answers He may have for us.

We won’t grow in our confidence if we don’t get closer or take steps that He has asked us to take. We will remain a baby in our faith, and if we are not careful our faith can get lost through the many different challenges we face.

Keep steadfast in our faith. Always be looking to God for the answers to our situation. And if it is bigger than we could imagine, keep looking to Him to deliver. Don’t give up, thinking we will never get through it.

Believing and knowing that God will do what He says He will do for us keeps our faith in Him strong and our confidence going to the end. Amen.
