  • Don’t defer your hope. Hope against hope. Even when there’s no reason to hope, keep hoping.

  • There was nothing supernatural about Abraham, or any of the men and women in the Bible, they just had unwavering faith in a supernatural God.

  • Our main focus shouldn’t be set on the things God can give us or make us, but on him - who He is and what He’s calling us to.

  • Because we believe he is, then we will - We will surrender to him, submit to his will and his way, prove our faith by how we live.

  • Our faith in Christ is the foundation. It’s what gives vision to that which we have not seen yet.

  • Acknowledge a belief in the truth and then let your behavior reflect the truth you claim to believe.

  • The only one great enough, strong enough, true enough, trustworthy enough, fulfilling enough to throw the full weight of our trust on is God Almighty.

  • Are you placing the complete weight of your faith on created things or on the creator?

  • Faith bridges the gap between unexplainable and undeniable.

  • Our faith is not just in God’s word that was heard, but in God’s word that was seen.

  • Our responsibility is to walk by faith in what the Holy Spirit is leading us to do.

  • In prayer we call on Him to work out His purpose, not gratify our whims.

  • We don’t get to tell God when or where or how to do what he does, but we do get to exercise our faith in his will.

  • Our faith does not just propel us forward into what God wants to do through us, but our faith also protects us from what the enemy wants to do to us and to his church to stop that work.

  • Even though we can’t fully see or explain everything, we can fully trust in Him.
