The Power of Faith: Hebrews 11:1; Romans 10:9-10

Hebrews 11:1, Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Romans 10:9-10, That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. ¹⁰ For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

For the past three months, I have taught on faith using my Sunday School Commentary book and as the Holy Spirit led me to share some enlightening points on faith.

From our scripture texts (Romans 10:9-10), there is saving power in having faith. The faith that I am speaking of here is a heart faith, believing without total being that yes, there is a God and Jesus Christ is His Son who came to earth in human form to sacrifice His life for humanity. In doing so, all who believe are assured of everlasting life (John 3:16).

Faith is powerful enough to save all who believe from being eternally separated from God, our creator, and sustainer. Faith is powerful enough to cause us to persevere in our faith journey with Jesus because this is an endurance race, not a sprint. While on this faith walk, we will encounter some obstacles; having enduring faith, we will conquer our enemy (Satan) because everything begins in the spirit realm. This is A Persevering Faith because it enables us to continue regardless of how rough the road may get. We can persevere because we have God the Holy Spirit residing in us as our helper, comforter, and strength. We are more than conquerors in Christ Jesus because: (a) Jesus has already overcome the world (John 16:33), and (b) the God (the Holy Spirit) that is in us is much bigger than the god of this world (1 John 4:4).

Therefore, have no fear nor doubt or worries because Jesus Christ promised that He would be with us to the end of the world, and He is. Have faith!
