Living and serving by faith



Hebrews 10:38; 11:1, 4, 6
Faith, the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Implying that faith is not abstract, but a reality, that which is substantial. To come into relationship with God we come on the wings of faith (Eph. 2:3). It is by the same faith we live.
(Heb. 10:38). We do not only live by faith but we serve Him by faith. Indeed, whatever is not of faith is sin( Rom. 14:23) No wonder the devil had an eye on the faith of Peter (Luke 22:31-32) and the Lord, knowing that the death of our faith is like clipping the wings of a bird, interceded that Peter’s faith of Abel that put life in his service and sacrifice making it acceptable to man and to God. Without faith it is impossible to please Him, for He that cometh to God must believe that He is and is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.
