Faith in the Lord means having confidence that God is good, that He’s on your side, and that He’s always working, even when you can’t see it.
The entire Christian life, from start to finish, is by faith. You’re saved through faith. You please God through faith. After all, Hebrews 11:6 says that without faith it’s impossible to please God. You believe God’s promises in the Bible through faith.
Romans 10:17 says, “So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.”
If you want to have faith in God that isn’t easily moved or shaken, you need to immerse yourself in the promises of God. God never changes, and if he’s been faithful to you in the past, it’s a guarantee that he will continue to be faithful in the future. Faith in God is trust in Him, based on a true understanding of who He is, as revealed in the Bible. Faith in God involves an intellectual assent to the facts concerning God and a life-changing reliance on those facts.
