How Faith Comes - Teachings

 How Faith Comes

In the same way, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God (Romans 10:17). 

 

The apostle Paul gives us a heavenly way to increase our faith. This heavenly growing belief system is God's solution to our faith problem. Whether you are struggling to believe in God's Word or contemplating how to build your faith, this prayer will be a revelation for your next level of faith. 

 

Before explaining how faith comes, let’s briefly review the current state of the beliefs of most Christians. As a believer and pastor, through personal struggles and ministry to other believers, I have come to know that we have faith problems. This crisis of faith is paradoxical. Believers struggle to believe. Faith also remains a mystery in the hearts of many believers. 

 

Nevertheless, it remains the basis of our relationship with God and of the Christian's daily life. Therefore, we must overcome all obstacles and grow in the course of faith. Knowing how faith comes to us is the beginning of faith growth. Romans 10:17 says, “Faith comes by hearing.” First, it becomes the foundation upon which faith is born. We can gain or strengthen our faith. Therefore, when we find ourselves unfaithful or having little faith in any situation, this verse shows that faith can come to us. And we go further to show how that happens. 

 

Faith comes from hearing the Word of God (or Christ as in the Greek text). The key terms are “hearing” and “the word of Christ.” Faith comes from hearing, not just reading. It is the voice of God in the Word that awakens faith. Hearing God's voice is a central New Testament concept, and I have written many articles about it. His voice is not necessarily an audible sound, but the breath of the Holy Spirit in the heart of a man who in the present breathes life into the Word of God. You can hear His voice while reading the Bible or listening to a sermon. It is the voice of God in the Word we read or hear that brings faith. Therefore, hearing the voice of God is the cornerstone of gaining or growing faith.

Never Lacking - Daily Devotional

  Bible Verse: Philippians 4:19 (NIV) - "And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus." Devotional: As Christians, we are called to live a life of faith, trusting in God's promises to provide for all our needs. The verse from Philippians 4:19 assures us that our God is faithful and will never let us lack anything we truly need.
