BIBILCAL CONTEXT

As a follower of Jesus the Christ our belief in God is that he is the one and only true God by whose truth, purpose and principles we stand, live and breathe having unwavering confidence in knowing that even though we don’t have visible facts of his existence, like seeing his actual face we know that he is absolute and real. Faith is the key to our everyday living, for by faith we pull strength to survive, thrive and accomplish our purpose of living in Christ, and it is by faith that we please God first and foremost. Faith keeps us in the love of God and according to Ephesians 2:8 by faith which is the confident belief of, we are indeed saved by the grace of God.

Also know just as faith is important to God so is it to the devil, for satan knows that if he can weaken our faith and destroy our belief in God he has the evil opportunity to consume our hearts and turn us against the righteousness of Lord to partake in his wicked sins, thus damning our spirits to burn in hell and calming the victory over the Kingdom of Heaven. Yet our faith is at its' greatest when we feed it the word of God continuously.

Read Hebrews chapter 11, faith defined and exemplified, one of the major parts of the foundation by which the followers of the Kingdom of Heaven are built. By faith we believe, live and move in the ways of God knowing that the end result is the glory of the Throne of Heaven on earth and everlasting life in the Kingdom of Heaven when God calls his people home to him.

Who have you put your faith in, is it God, mankind, the devil or self?
