Work of faith. 1 Thessalonians 1:3 Vain faith. 1 Corinthians 15:14,17, 58 Unfeigned faith. 2 Timothy 1:5 Saving faith. James 2:14 Dead faith. James 2:26 Working faith. James 2:24 Faith Can Change

Apostles’ Dissatisfaction With Their Faith Their faith had failed them. –In the storm they were afraid. Matthew 8: –On the sea, Peter doubted. Matthew 14:26-31 –On the Mount of Transfiguration, they failed to perform a miracle. Matthew 17:19-20 They did not despair. They sought improvement. –NOTE: 2 Corinthians 13:5; Philippians 3:13- 16; Ephesians 6:10-14a; 1 Corinthians 16:13

The Necessity of Increasing Our Faith We are saved by faith. Ephesians 2:1-8; Romans 5:1; Galatians 3:26-29 We live by faith. 2 Corinthians 5:7; Galatians 2:20 Faith is the foundation of our hope. Hebrews 11:1,6; cf. 2 Timothy 1:12; 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Lord Increase Our Faith… In times of temptation. James 1:1-2; 1 John 5:4; 1 Corinthians 10:12-13 In times of sadness and sorrow. Matthew 15:28; Daniel 3:13-18; Hebrews 13:5-6; 12:1; Philippians 2:12-16; Romans 8:31-39 In time of duty and obedience. –Forgiveness. Luke 17:1-4; Colossians 3:12-15 –Giving. 1 Corinthians 16:1-2; 2 Corinthians 9:6- 7; 8:1-3 –Assembling. Hebrews 10:24-25; Acts 20:7 –Seeking the kingdom first. Matthew 6:33 Faith is shown in obedience! James 2:18

The Manner Of Increasing Our Faith Desire for more faith. cf. Luke 17:5 Resort to the source of faith …God’s word. Romans 10:17 Appropriate to our hearts and lives the teachings of God’s word. James 1:21ff; 2:14ff –Pray for health … take care of our bodies. –Pray for daily bread … work diligently. –Pray for the lost … go or send a teacher. –Pray for increase of faith … use the measure we have and seek to grow. (cf. Matthew 13:12)

The Manner Of Increasing Our Faith Use it or lose it!!! –True in the natural world. Limb of the body. Fish in Mammoth Cave, KY –True in the spiritual world. Matthew 25 We must use the measure we have and seek to grow. (cf. Matthew 13:12) An increase of faith means an increase of every Christian virtue. (cf. 2 Peter 1:5-7)

“Lord, Increase Our Faith” Luke 17:5 We are involved in a fight of faith. 1 Timothy 6:12 We labor in a work of faith. 1 Thessalonians 1:3 We are a member of the household of faith. Galatians 6:10 Our salvation is dependent upon this prayer and its answer!!!
