Presentation transcript:

While We Wait Heb 11:1-3 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. 2 This is what the ancients were commended for. 3 By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

While We Wait Heb 11:24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter.

While We Wait 1 Kings 17:2-4 Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah: 3 “Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan. 4 You will drink from the brook, and I have directed the ravens to supply you with food there.”

While We Wait Faith doesn’t describe something we DO as much as it describes something we’re IN –the relationship of LOVE, TRUST and OBEDIENCE with the Father through His son Jesus.

While We Wait Rom 10:11 Anyone who believes God (trusts in Him) will NEVER be put to shame.

While We Wait Living by faith… …involves SEEING.

While We Wait Living by faith… …involves SEEING. …involves HEARING.

While We Wait Living by faith… …involves SEEING. …involves HEARING. Isa 66:2 These are the ones I look on with favor: those who are humble and contrite in spirit, and who tremble at my word.

While We Wait Living by faith… …involves SEEING. …involves HEARING. …means the IMPOSSIBLE becomes POSSIBLE.

While We Wait Faith is our response to the promises of God; it’s how we live as we wait for God to show His faithfulness.

While We Wait While we wait… …we WORSHIP. (= see)

While We Wait While we wait… …we WORSHIP. …we remain in God’s WORD. (= hear)

While We Wait While we wait… …we WORSHIP. …we remain in God’s WORD. …we WALK in step with the Spirit. (= obey)

While We Wait “Anyone who puts their faith in God will NEVER be put to shame (Rom 10) so we are called to live by FAITH and not by sight (2 Cor 5). We live by faith by inclining our ear to the Lord because faith comes by HEARING and hearing from the word of the Lord (Rom 10). We live by faith by FIXING OUR EYES on Jesus the Author and Perfector of our faith so that we can run with perseverance the race marked out for us (Heb 12). When we live by faith the IMPOSSIBLE BECOMES POSSIBLE (Rom 4).”
