FAITH IS The POWER
BELIEVING THE IMPOSSIBLE 2-CO.5:7

CHRISTIAN FAITH Now faith is the assurance that what we hope for will come
about and the certainty that what we cannot see exists.
Origin of FAITH;
Faith is confidence or trust in a person or thing, or a deity or in
the doctrines or teachings of a religion. It may also be belief that is not
based on proof.[1]
In religion, faith
often involves accepting claims about the character of a deity, nature, or the
universe.
While some have argued that faith is opposed to reason, proponents of
faith argue that the proper domain of faith concerns questions which cannot be
settled by evidence. For example, faith can be applied to predictions of the
future, w Now faith is the assurance that what we hope for will come about and the certainty that what we cannot see exists.

Christian Faith
Faith in Christianity is based on the work and teachings of Jesus
Christ.
.[1] Christianity declares not to be distinguished by faith, but by the
object of its faith. Rather than being passive, faith leads to an active life
aligned with the ideals and the example of the life of Jesus Christ. It sees the
mystery of God and his grace and seeks to know and become obedient to God. To a
Christian, faith is not static but causes one to learn more of God and grow,
and has its origin in God.
[2]
In Christianity, faith causes change as it seeks a greater
understanding of God. Faith is not simple obedience to a set of
rules or statements.
[3] Before Christians have faith, they must understand in
whom and in what they have faith. Without understanding, there cannot be true
faith, and that understanding is built on the foundation of the community of
believers, the scriptures and traditions and on the personal experiences of the
believer
.[4] In English translations of the New Testament, the word faith
generally corresponds to the Greek noun (pistis) or the Greek verb (pisteuo), meaning "to trust, to have
confidence, faithfulness, to be reliable, to assure".
[5] The Bible says
that faith is "the substance of things hoped for, he evidence of things
not Heb.11:1
character on faith
The apostle Paul has been using the patriarch
Abraham as an example of faith in Romans 4:1-25. as we examine the final
section of this chapter we shall observe the characteristics of true, saving
faith. Let’s read Romans 4:18-25: In hope he believed against hope, that
he should become the father of many nations, as he had been told, ’So shall
your offspring be.’
He did not weaken in faith when he considered his own
body, which was as good as dead (since he was about a hundred years old), or
when he considered the barrenness of Sarah’s womb.V20 No distrust made him
waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he
gave glory to God, fully convinced that God was able to do what he had
promised. That is why his faith was ’counted to him as righteousness.’
But the words ’it was counted to him’ were not written for his sake alone, but for ours also. It will be counted to us who believe in him who raised from
the dead Jesus our Lord, who was delivered up for our trespasses and raised
for our justification." (Romans 4:18-25)
GOD MADE IT SIMPLE
When God created the human race and placed us in the Garden
of Eden, He gave us one Law to live by:
Of the tree of the knowledge of good
and evil, you shall not eat of it: for in the day that you eat thereof you
shall surely die. Genesis 2:17
GOD'S commandment was simple: There was only one Law, not many not
many .Gods commandment was easy, It was
a commandment that say do not do such
thing.
To simple put God’s commandment was clear , God said that righteousness
cannot be achieved through learning the difference between right and wrong to learn right , wrong could lead to death.
The ways of righteousness was to simply
believe God and take Him at His word. An all or none decision. There was a serpent in Eden who contradicted God, challenging Eve
concerning what to believe: And the serpent said
unto the woman 'You shall not surely die.
For God knows that in the
day you eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and you shall be as gods,
knowing good and evil.' Genesis 3:4-5. Likely in the world today ,Satan will tempt people to
move away from the truth of God , to adapt worldly principle.
FEAR OF GOD
In the Bible faith in God is also called 'the fear of the
Lord'. Some people say that they don’t want a God whom they must fear. They
imply that such a God must be a tyrant. Their objections overlook, however, the
fact that the love of God has already been clearly manifested to us. It is He
who has made us and placed us on this planet in the first place, and has opened
the door to everlasting happiness for all of us, based simply upon the
requirement that we acknowledge His trustworthiness and allow Him to lead us.God wants to be a Shepherd to us. When He created us, He
brought us into a dangerous universe where the forces of good and evil were
already arrayed in battle against each other.He gave us the privilege to be
free moral agents, and to choose between obeying Him or opposing Him.
God did not
only gave us life; He gave us choices, and have made that choice as simple as He
could.Those who discount the value of fear in our lives are really
striking at the very foundations of human society. Fear is an essential part of
our everyday experience. Our fear of death prolongs our lives and guides us to
success in almost every important thing that we do. We generally view fearless
people as dangerous, and as either uneducated, foolish or insane.We teach our children to look both ways before crossing the
street, and not to go with strangers, because we fear for their safety.
Men dig DEEP DOWN before putting up buildings, bridges and dams because they fear
the waste of wealth and loss of life that might result from carelessness. it represents the
wise path that
God has chosen to someday lead people to a paradise where fear
and death will be forever abolished.The fear of the Lord is the beginning of
wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
Proverbs 9:10
The fear of the Lord prolongs days, but
the years of the wicked shall be shortened.
Proverbs 10:27

BIBLE VERSES
About Faith from the King James Version (KJV) Proverbs
3:5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not
unto thine own understanding. Ephesian
1--- For by grace are ye saved through
faith and that not of yourself it
is the gift of God.
[2]-Yet we have the same spirit of faith as he had who wrote, I have believed, and therefore have spoken.
We too believe, and therefore we speak. 2 Corinthian 4:13- [3] But to one who, not working [by the Law], trusts (believes fully) in Him Who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited to him as righteousness (the standing acceptable to God). Romans 4:5- [4] comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Hebrew.11:6(NKJV-[5] Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. James 2:17(NKJ-[6] Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law.)Ro.3;28)
[7]Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works ofthe law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified. Galatian.2:16-[8] Jesus turned around and, seeing her, He said, Take courage, daughter! Your faith has made you well. And at once the woman was restored to health. Matthew 9:22
[9] That the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ. 1Peter.1:17 [10] 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 Matthew .17:20 [11] So that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men (human philosophy), but in the power of God.
1 Corinthian 2;5-[12] For we walk by faith and not by sight
2 Corinthian 5:7-[13] have faith in God Mark.11:22
Faith increases the more you use it BELIEVE and see the Hand of God in every situation.“All I have seen teaches me
to trust the Creator for all I have not seen.” Ralph Waldo EmersON
This Lion took leap of faith, he needed to get to the other side, how right now he is seeing the impossible , there is a wide gulf between,
The moment he took his eyes of the impossible
his instinct, his determination, and belief cause him to leap why :
he believe he could do it and he did , but it only materilized when he actually jump and reached the other side.
The Lion faith trust that he would actually reach that other side
The christian faith in God is give their life in the hand of God, believing that God will take good care of those who love him, and will not allow us to fall, For Gods word cannot fail.
In the world we live , there are various challenges and situations that can confront us daily , but and when we are under the watchful eyes of God and live by His word , constantly seeing for Him to guide , we now we cannot see him , but we know His presence , we feel His love , and we now that the eyes of God is constantly on us forming a shield of protection around us , so we have piece of mind and extending our faith in Him.
