Scripture Reference: Hebrews 11:1

Scripture Exerpt:

What is faith? It is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going to happen. It is the evidence of things we cannot yet see.


Devotional Text

Can we be sure of something we cannot see? The certainty of faith goes beyond hope. Hope has to do with the future, our eternal reward once this life is over. In contrast, faith has to do with the present. The King James Version of Hebrews 11:1 begins with the phrase “Now faith.” If it’s not now, it’s not faith! The entire concept of faith rests on being certain of the unseen, because all creation came into existence from things that are not seen (Hebrews 11:3). The fact that something is unseen does not make it unreal. God’s Word operates in the unseen realm, and faith in His Word is what brings those things into the seen realm. It takes evidence, a piece of objective data in which you place your full confidence, to be certain of something you cannot see. The promises of the Bible must become your evidence and certainty even when your five senses see no tangible reality in the natural world. Fix your attention on God’s promises until your hope graduates to become faith!
