5. Crisis Faith

6. John 4:46-47 So Jesus came again to Cana of Galilee where He had made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum. When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and implored Him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

7. Crisis Faith  The official had heard of Jesus.  Who was this official?  The Official Request.  Jesus' reply seems harsh.  Crisis faith is No were else to turn.

8. Always Turn To God Psalms 121:1-8 I will lift up my eyes to the hills-From whence comes my help? My help comes from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber. Behold, He who keeps Israel Shall neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD is your keeper; The LORD is your shade at your right hand. The sun shall not strike you by day, Nor the moon by night. The LORD shall preserve you from all evil; He shall preserve your soul. The LORD shall preserve your going out and your coming in From this time forth, and even forevermore.

9. Confident Faith

10. John 4:50 Jesus said to him, "Go your way; your son lives." So the man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.

11. Confident Faith  Jesus' Miracle.  He believed and went on his way.  What does this say about the official's faith?

12. Abraham’s Confident Faith Romans 4:19-22 He did not weaken in faith when he considered his own body, which was as good as dead (since he was about a hundred years old), or when he considered the barrenness of Sarah's womb. No distrust made him waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he gave glory to God, fully convinced that God was able to do what he had promised. That is why his faith was "counted to him as righteousness."

13. Confirmed Faith

14. John 4:51-53 And as he was now going down, his servants met him and told him, saying, "Your son lives!" Then he inquired of them the hour when he got better. And they said to him, "Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him." So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, "Your son lives." And he himself believed, and his whole household.

15. Our God Keeps His Promises Hebrews 11:11 “By faith Sarah herself received power to conceive, even when she was past the age, since she considered him faithful who had promised.”

16. Our God Keeps His Promises 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it.

17. Our God Keeps His Promises Romans 3:3 “For what if some did not believe? Will their unbelief make the faithfulness of God without effect?”

18. Confirmed Faith God doesn't want you to guess He wants you to know! Psalms 34:8 “Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!”

19. Contagious Faith

20. Faith is not really faith until we share it with others. Acts 4:18-20 And they called them and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus. But Peter and John answered and said to them, "Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you more than to God, you judge. "For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard."
