FAITH

If you look at successful people in history, you will notice characteristics in them that are similar. One of those common threads that seem to link these successful people together is the characteristic of FAITH. So, what is faith? The writer of Hebrews describes faith in this way, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1 The mirror Bible states in this way, “Persuasion confirms confident expectation and proves the unseen world to be more real than the scene. Faith celebrates as certain what hope visualizes as future.

Faith is a substance on the inside that declares the reality of something that is not yet physically visible. It is being absolutely assured of what cannot be seen. It is the place of total trust.

1 John 5:4  For everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. (NIV)

We might be tempted to think that good works is what pleases God, but the truth is, FAITH is what pleases God! If it is true faith, it will always have a corresponding action.
