Faith in God

Faith as defined in Hebrews 11:1 is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see,Faith defined in the dictionary:confident belief in the truth,value,trustworthiness of a person idea or a thing,belief not based on logical proof or material evidence.The defination i love the most is this one Trust in God and his promises as made through Christ Jesus and the scriptures by which humans are justified or saved.One of my sisters in Christ asked me if we could do a message together for Friday  youth service i said yes without hesitation the only thing was that we were to be a tag team trust me i didn't know how it was going to work since I've never done anything like that but of course i have played tag with kids but not when it comes to the word of God where we have to be in one accord in the spirit of God and allow the spirit to flow through the both of us to present one message without even sitting down together to discuss the message.I felt like God was testing me on two things and teaching me two things 1:can i trust his spirit to work on both of us and 2:Can two walk unless they agree?Amos 3:3.Well that's where we both had to walk in Faith and trust God,that's the only word that kept coming out of my mouth we trust God we trust God and that Friday night all went perfect and i believe God did what he had to do and taught me a lesson after wards.Anyway back to Faith which i love to define as the Key that unlocks the promises of God,this key is the word of God(consequently faith comes from hearing the message,and the message is heard through the word of Christ Rom:10:17)and we know that without(faith) this key it's impossible to please God,it's impossible to open the door to God because anyone that comes to God must come believing that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him Hebrews 11:6 Anyone that comes to God must possess this key and use this key to enter in and have a communicating relationship with God.To develop faith we have to know the spoken word of God seek him out in his word and take the word he has spoken to us and establish a relationship with God.Faith in God is to accept his will for our lives trusting him totally and depending on him to know that he is the one who fulfills his will for our lives (Ps 57:2)Having faith in God is to know without a doubt that what he has promised will surely come to pass no matter how long it takes because God cannot defame himself or yield his glory to an idol,Faith in God is to take God at his word and be rest assured that his word won't go back to him void but it will accomplish the purpose of which he sent it (Isaiah 55:11)Let me remind you that this word dwelt among us and became flesh and the word of God is Jesus Christ revealed who lives not only in us but with us.Having faith in God is to be justified by him and declared righteous by God in Christ Jesus in order for us to receive his promises.Abraham believed God and it was credited to him as righteousness,he didn't waver but stood firm on God's word and promise and also the things God had done for him read Romans 4.God told Abram I am God Almighty(El Shaddai)walk before me and be blameless.I will confirm my covenant between me and you and will greatly increase your number (Gen 17:1-2)in verse 3 Abram fell face down...why did he fall face down? to worship God because he took God at his word trusted totally and completely what El Shaddai had said.God chose him to be blameless and by faith he received God's promise and God went ahead by changing his name from Abram to Abraham.Faith in God also transforms us and renews us,faith in God brings about change a distinction..
Lastly faith in God also allows God to direct us in the path he has chosen for us to walk in his will and obedience: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 shall make your paths straight.Have a faith filled week in God through Christ Jesus his spoken word.
