Hebrews 11:1-3 | Christian Faith | Mornings With Mike

In this video I will be sharing Hebrews 11:1-3 (NLT). This is essential to Christian faith. In our faith, we trust everything in scripture; our faith brings everything in the Bible into being real.
Hebrews 11:1-3
1 'Faith shows the reality of what we hope for; it is the evidence of things we cannot see. 2 Through their faith, the people in days of old earned a good reputation. 3 By faith we understand that the entire universe was formed at God’s command, that what we now see did not come from anything that can be seen.'
Faith is having the confidence that the past things, and the coming future things God has revealed in His written word, have happened or will unquestionably happen.
Faith is a trusting reliance on God. In context, this is not mere "belief," in an intellectual sense. Nor is it a blind assumption. Rather, it's a choice to follow God with confidence, even when we don't fully know what lies ahead. The famous figures listed later in this chapter are among those "people of old" who are commended on the basis of their faith.
The third verse here continues to define faith. The point made here helps to explain faith by combining our sense of the past, present, and future. Earlier verses described faith looking forward, to "things hoped for… not seen." The context of this idea is that what we have seen and experienced of God ought to inspire trusting confidence in the future. In verse 3, that same idea is used to show faith looking backwards, to the past.
In these three verses especially, godly faith is really demonstrated as “trust.” So I encourage you to have trust in Him, and be a faith spreader this week.
