and in your place of work? Did you live in faithfulness? Then even if your words are broken words and you can't sing in tune and we don't have good musical instruments, it's a tremendous offering of praise and thanksgiving to

[Music] wanted to speak today about where is your faith leaning today so what is your faith leaning on

were seafaring men who had spent a lot of time on the water um when they were legitimately in danger and they felt they were perishing and jesus got up and he said where's your faith and i was thinking about this i was actually talking with my girls about it

[Music] I always want to be this is the picture that always comes to my mind because this is my understanding of faith without faith it is impossible to please

so uh yeah thank you for that and to that's what something that helps us to love and not repay back evil for evil but love uh those who hurt us so um what i wanted to share regarding what i wanted to share today was about faith

repentance toward god and faith in our lord jesus christ is not just turning away from sin it's a turning away from sin towards god we are all born facing sin right from our birth

from faith to faith, as it is written, but the righteous man shall live by faith. Um, and I was the phrase from faith to faith has been on my heart this week that I know that I was born again by faith, and when I first came to the Lord,

That's the first word. You have been saved. That's another word. through faith. Grace saved and faith and that not of yourselves. It is the gift of God. The Bible says that

this be on the alert stand firm and it says stand firm in the faith in the New Covenant there's a tremendous emphasis on faith and faith is not just believe believing certain things about God and about

I thought I had faith, but I found that the longer it took, the more frantic my prayers were. I prayed more fervently or more anxiously. I will, if you will. Nothing wrong with fervent prayer. But the mark of faith is that if I really

so yesterday we did we did look at faith and we looked at uh what it what it's faith and how what is faith and how you get it today i want to um again emphasize that faith in essence if i was to use one phrase to describe faith it's

Jesus was astonished this time he was astonished at this man's faith in mark 6 he was astonished at these people with whom he had grown up for thirty years he was astonished at their unbelief and now he's astonished that the faith of a man

faith that's the beginning that's the foundation the person who's not had proper repentance and not come to genuine faith has no foundation and that's very important to begin there it doesn't matter how great sinner one

man's faith. In Mark 6, he was astonished at these people with whom he had grown up for 30 years. He was astonished at their unbelief. And now he's astonished at the faith of a man who has never read the Bible, never gone

and in your place of work did you live in faithfulness then even if your words are broken words and you can't sing in tune and we don't have good musical instruments it's a tremendous offering of praise and thanksgiving to God we never want to

And today we're going to start by we're going to take a series of going through all of these three things that we've considered, faith, hope, and love. And I'm going to begin by talking about faith today and we'll continue talking about faith some

be quiet but see but but but verse 15. women can bear children and if they continue in faith and love and sanctity and self-restraint they can bring those children to Salvation

must, we heard about having a burden, but it says here in James chapter 1 and verse 6, he must ask in faith without doubting. whatever we are asking for.

The Bible says the proud and the righteous. Uh Hebrews Habakkuk chapter 2 verse 4, the proud one his soul is not righteous. The righteous one is the one who lives by faith. So, there are two categories of people, the proud

them quickly. Verse 8. But when the son of man comes, this is speaking about the last days. When he comes back to earth, will he find faith on this? Will he find that kind of

Faith which is based on scripture but it's not an exact quote of scripture when Jesus wanted to encourage faith in his disciples he used the example of a father providing for his children and he said if your children

live. It's not true. It's a heart that God sees. Then he accepts our offering. That's very important. And you know in the New Testament in Hebrews 11, it says it's by faith that

with faith our faith is to use our feelings to drive what our faith is and so we wanted to take a few minutes just to do a little enactment yeah this is something similar to a a parable that's found in the good foundation book by
