Summary

Hebrews 11:1 says, “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” Faith is the undercurrent of everything we do as followers of Jesus. Without faith we lose all that Christ died to give us while here on earth. It is by faith we access the peace, joy, guidance, love, and purpose that comes from restored relationship with our heavenly Father. In this week of devotionals, we’re going to seek an increase in faith in response to God’s faithfulness. May you experience a greater depth of intimacy with your living, Almighty, and loving heavenly Father.

Our Scripture for today comes from 1 Corinthians 2:5, and today's worship is Coming Through by First15 Worship (feat. Jeremiah Brinkley).

Thank you for listening to today’s podcast on the heart of faith. I pray that this week your faith would be lifted and established as we focus on the incredible, unwavering faithfulness of our good and loving Father.

If you haven’t had a chance to rate and review this podcast, please take a moment to do that today! A few minutes of your time could make the difference in someone else finding us, and establishing the rhythm of experiencing God in a fresh way every day.

I’m so grateful for you, and grateful that you’re choosing to create space to experience the loving presence of God. May God bless you as you seek him today.
