Have Faith

Faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ.
- Romans 10:17

After Jesus faced the unbelief of His hometown, “Jesus went around teaching from village to village” (Mark 6:6). Jesus knew that teaching the truth destroys unbelief. Faith comes from hearing…and hearing by the Word of God.

There’s no question that in order for the true miracle working power of God to be released in your life, you must have faith. To step out in faith, you need to be instructed about God’s Word surrounding the situation.

Here’s why: faith comes by hearing. Hearing means receiving instruction. Instruction provides information. Information produces understanding. Understanding cultivates trust. Trust is faith…and faith in God can move mighty mountains! “I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you” (Matthew 17:20).

Faith begins with the Word—and the Word gives us instruction for every situation. “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path” (Psalms 119:105).

Use His divine instruction manual to live victoriously.
