Blessed is the One Who Believes

Proposition: "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen ... by faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible" (Hebrews 11:1, 3). Faith is a gift of God's grace (Ephesians 2:8) and it is based upon His holy Word. Do you rejoice in His promises and look forward in faith to their fulfillment? How is this faith evidenced in your life?

I. Faith obtains the promise

II. The fruit of faith (the blessings of God)

III. Faith expressed by joyful praise
