Faith in People Fails but Faith in God Never Fails!

Shaila  D Touchton
Faith is believing and trusting God and hoping for the evidence of things not seen. Faith in God gives us confidence, hope, peace and joy. God wants us to put our faith in action.

Many people believe God, but they do not trust enough to believe in Gods promises .They are often filled with worry, doubts and fear. Sometimes we all lack faith, during that time we need to read the word of God to boost our faith because faith comes by hearing the word of God again and again and Christ is the Author and Finisher of faith(Hebrews 12:2).

We need to have a "childlike faith", "faith as a grain of mustard-seed" to move mountains, faith of the Canaanite woman.

Scripture Reference:

Hebrews 11:6:"But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him."

Isaiah 40:31:Yet those who wait for the LORD Will gain new strength; They will mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary.

Deuteronomy 31:6:Be strong and courageous. Don't tremble! Don't be afraid of them! The LORD your God is the one who is going with you. He won't abandon you or leave you."

Joshua 1:5: No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.

Proverbs 3:5: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

1 Peter 5:7:Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.

Psalms 37:5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this.

Hebrews 11:1: Now faith is the substances of thing hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Matthew 9:29: Then He touched their eyes, saying, "It shall be done to you according to your faith."

Matthew 21:22: If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."

2Cor 5.7:"For we walk by faith, not by sight."

Romans 10:17:"Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God"

Hebrews 6:12:We do not want you to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised.

James 1:6: But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubt is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.

1 Corinthians 16:13: Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.

    "childlike faith" sounds so simple, yet is so hard to achieve. Praise God for His grace and forgiving nature!

    He never sleeps, is never taken unaware, and never fails to keep His word. Amen. We must put our faith in the one who keeps His own.
