The Power of faith

Simply put, the importance of Faith cannot be underestimated.

As we have read many times  People have moved mountains with their faith. Even when situations seemed dire and bleak, it was their faith that carried them through. There’s little to no explanation for it in the physical realm; it’s the spiritual fiber that binds us all, carrying each of our deepest wishes and desires. That’s where Faith lives.

Unfortunately, some people don’t believe in things that they cannot see. They explain things away due to other causes and effects, failing to find the small miracles in life that exist and work in our favor on a constant basis. There’s an enormous level of importance attributable to having faith in life.

Faith isn’t just a notion that we should turn to in times of trouble. Life is precious, but it can also be remarkably difficult at times. Faith in God’s promises is what helps to get us through, lighting the pathway of salvation through Jesus Christ in times of darkness, helping to give us strength in those times of weakness.

Just have a look at these examples from Hebrews.

[Hebrews 11:4-7]

4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and by it he  being dead yet speaketh.

5 By faith Enoch was translated  that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him; for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

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.

7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.

Though or Our Faith all things are possible.

Jesus Christ healed the sick, the blind, the lame, the leprous—“according to [their] faith” therefore,it stands to reason that  only a lack of faith will mean that your call for help may not be answered.

The scriptures teach us that with faith we can work miracles

Mark 9:45

Seek unto my Father, and it shall be done in that very moment what ye shall ask, if ye ask in faith, believing that ye shall receive.

When we ask in faith for something that is in accordance with the will of God, He will grant us according to our desires. Our  Heavenly Father knows us, loves us, and desires everything necessary for us to return to His presence. it is important to remember that sometimes  that he requires us to endure  trials, troubles, and challenges so that we can draw closer.

If our  Heavenly Father were to free us from our challenges simply because we asked, He would deny us the very experiences necessary for our salvation. We must learn to trust in God’s plan for us and submit our will to His.In my mind Faith could well be descried as our Spiritual fuel.  With out it we are going nowhere fast and we cannot achieve the seemingly impossible.

As we align our desires with those of our Lord  and acknowledge our complete dependence on Him, the power of our Faith can grow significantly.  our ability to cope with all the world becomes better and better and we can feel humble and yet invincible.

The key to unlocking it lies in our obedience to Gods Word.
