“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen†(Hebrews 11:1, KJV) The Bible says that faith gives substance to the things you hope for. In other words, faith brings those things into your life. Notice this verse starts by saying, “Now faith…†It’s not “later†faith or “one day†faith. It’s faith for today, right now. So, what does it mean to have “now†faith? The basic definition of faith, according to the Bible, is simply believing in God’s goodness and believing that He rewards the people who seek after Him. It’s taking His Word as truth — right now. Can you believe that God wants to move in your life, today? Do you believe He can provide for your need, today? Do you believe He can heal your relationship, today? Do you believe He can give you that promotion, today? Whatever you are hoping for, open your heart and expect that God is working on your behalf, right now. Dare to believe that God will come through for you, today. Stand strong and declare that the victory is yours, now! Let your words put action behind your “now†faith and receive His strength and power to see victory in every area of your life Source: Joel Osteen |
