Discussion summary & scripture references

Faith is not “see it then believe it.” Instead, it is “believe it then see it.” Faith brings your desires into the present. Faith doesn’t stop working just because our calling is challenged by a world crisis. Faith doesn’t believe in facts. Faith changes facts. Faith dictates your calling, not the facts of circumstances. Listen to the replay from our Faith Discussion from April 5, 2020 to hear more about this concept.

Hebrews 11:1 KJV

[1] Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Romans 4:17 KJV

[17] (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.

Matthew 14:25,28-31 NLT

[25] About three o’clock in the morning Jesus came toward them, walking on the water.
[28] Then Peter called to him, “Lord, if it’s really you, tell me to come to you, walking on the water.”
[29] “Yes, come,” Jesus said. So Peter went over the side of the boat and walked on the water toward Jesus.
[30] But when he saw the strong wind and the waves, he was terrified and began to sink. “Save me, Lord!” he shouted.
[31] Jesus immediately reached out and grabbed him. “You have so little faith,” Jesus said. “Why did you doubt me?”

Romans 4:18-21 KJV

[18] Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.
[19] And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara’s womb:
[20] He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;
[21] And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

Luke 8:49-50,52-55 KJV

[49] While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue’s house, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master.
[50] But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole.
[52] And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.
[53] And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.
[54] And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise.
[55] And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he commanded to give her meat.

Genesis 37:31-33 KJV

[37] And they took Joseph’s coat, and killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the coat in the blood;
[32] And they sent the coat of many colours, and they brought it to their father; and said, This have we found: know now whether it be thy son’s coat or no.
[33] And he knew it, and said, It is my son’s coat; an evil beast hath devoured him; Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces.
