Hebrews 11:1 KJV)
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
** Here a true story of a man who had to see, touch, feel before believing!
John 20:25
"The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe."
Thomas refused to believe what He couldn't see or feel. Our five senses were given to us by God and are necessary to help us function in this life. But if we do not renew our minds to acknowledge the limits of our five senses, they will keep us from believing. Faith can perceive things that the senses cannot.
Heb 11:1
11 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
There is a human faith and a supernatural, God-kind of faith. Human faith is based on physical things that we can see, taste, hear, smell, or feel. God's kind of faith believes independently of only physical circumstances.
To receive God's gift of salvation, we have to use the supernatural, God-kind of faith which isn't limited by our five senses. This is because, to be saved, we must believe for things that we can not either see or feel. We have never seen either God nor the devil. We have not seen Heaven or Hell. Yet we have come to believe that these things exist. Yet Human faith can not believe what it can not see.
Man is so destitute that he can not even believe the gospel on his own. To receive God's gift of salvation, we have to receive the supernatural, God-kind of faith first. Where does this faith come from?
How do we get it?
Romans 10:17 says, "So then faith comes by hearing, and by hearing the word of God."
God's Word contains His faith. As we hear the Word of God about salvation, We receive God's faith so that we can believe the good news of our salvation. We actually use God's faith to get saved.
This God-kind of faith doesn't leave us after our born-again experience.
God's faith becomes a fruit of the Spirit which is in our hearts. We never lose this supernatural faith. We just have to renew our minds to God's faith which is in us, and then learn how to use it.
So stop and evaluate you faith! Where is yours?
