BY FAITH

Hebrews 11:8

By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.

Personal Challenge

Faith is such a critical part of our Christian life. It is not just about having faith as much as it is about the object in which we put our faith. For followers of Christ, that object is our God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We do not put our faith in politicians or political parties. We do not put it in religious teachers or religious institutions. We put it in our living God. Abraham lived before Jesus was born and yet God accounted his faith in the promises that God gave him. Abraham is an example in faithful trust in the unseen and unknown. We do not need a Christian nation in order for us to trust in God. To the contrary, that will always come between us and God’s kingdom here on earth. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner!
