God is the source of life, light, joy to the entire universe. A variety of means - He draws us to Himself and gives the possibility to better know Himself and get in close communion with Him.

The voice of nature, constantly working on our senses, makes our heart feels to the love of God and His word as we are open through the work of His hands. Attention - the ear able to discern and understand the voice of God in nature. If only to want due to consider creation of God in the universe, they would be for us a wonderful instructive examples of hope and obedience. The stars, who in his continuous motion across the universe envisaged by them the way, to the slightest speck of dust, it is His will, everything obeys Him.

God does everything and maintains everything that He created. He holds in His hands the countless worlds of the universe and at the same time takes care of the needs of the small sparrow, that sings its light-hearted song.

When a person goes to your daily work when he becomes the prayer, when sent on rest and wakes up in the morning, when in combat with hard-participatory democracy, severe challenges and experiences, above him awake caring eye of our heavenly father.

If only we could believe this, then immediately discarded by all non-necessary care. We do not feel frustrated with life, if entrusted to our care in the hands of God and Father, and assigned to a patronage That has NO WORRIES AND NO PROCEEDINGS ARE NOT HEAVY. We had such a soulful world of many never eaten.

Taste and see how the Lord is good! Blessed is the man that trusted in Him.

Psalm 33.9

 

Examples of live action in the lives of people

 

Great power is contained in a true and sincere faith in God. All anyone has to live the faith has the power to resolve everyday problems and challenges. They are able to overcome all sorts of adversity and disappointment, they find solace in time of suffering and finish of his earthly life in the hope of obtaining eternal life. FAITH IS THE DRIVING FORCE OF THE MATERIAL AND SPIRITUAL LIFE.

Faith has encouraged people to study, to make inventions and discoveries. She encouraged them to go to travel and expeditions. The plans of these people seemed impossible to those who did not believe.

Consider the examples of the living faith of the Bible.

Abraham - sample live unwavering faith :

By faith Abraham obeyed arbitrarily go in a country that had to get in the heritage, and went, not knowing where to go.

Hebrews 11.8

Abraham was justified by works, not for sin, but his unwavering faith:

Not whether the cases proved that Abraham, our father Isaac on the altar, entrusting his son? Do you see that faith helped his deeds, and deeds of faith has committed the funds? And turned the word of Scripture: "Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness, and he called the friend of God".

Jacob 2.21-23

Referred to in the Rome 4.17-18

We see that Abraham, the God of going in the ground, unquestioningly obey him. Not having expectations have offspring and having received the revelation of the birth of Isaac, he believed that, although both he and his wife were in old age. And when to test his faith, God commanded Abraham to sacrifice a son Isaac, Abraham was ready and do it, BELIEVING THAT GOD CAN RESURRECT the dead.

Another example of a living faith - Moses :

By faith Moses, when he came to age, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, and it is better to suffer with the people of God than to have temporary sinful delight, and reproach of Christ thought great wealth for themselves than the Egyptian Treasures; for he observed on the reward.

Hebrews 11.24-26

A living faith in God and his promises embodies the joy and happiness of the present and future life, as well as great benefits. This is why Moses refused to luxurious and hectic life. And although he had foreseen the eternal suffering for the faith, but internally he was happy and SATISFIED, regardless of reward from God.

That's what the Apostle Paul said about his faith :

But what things were gain to me, for Christ's sake, I thought as empty. Yes, and all the honor  for the sake of the superiority of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for him, I refused all honor for Christ to buy.

Philippians 3.7-8

For I have become by the sacrifice, and my time is. I had a good feat, for the committed, faith has kept; and now is getting me a Crown of righteousness, which the Lord will give me Justice, righteous in that day; and not only me, but everyone which loved phenomenon.

2 Timothy 4.6-8

I was a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles. For this reason I suffer so; but not ashamed. For I know whom I have believed, and I am sure that He has a strong retain my pledge on that day.

2 Timothy 1.11-12

 

The necessity of faith in life in our days

 

The Scripture says that nothing is impossible, IF YOU HAVE FAITH ( Matt 21.22, 17.20  ; Mark 11.23 ) .

Christ was healing with faith ( Mark 9.22-23 ).

Without faith it is IMPOSSIBLE to please Him ( Hebrews 11.6 ).

The source of the faith  -  Bible :

So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

Romans 10.17

But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name.

John 20.31

About the creator said the surrounding world, but God's Word is more perfect revelation of God and his great love.

A living faith in God expressed in deeds ( Jacob 2.14-16 ).

Not enough to recognize the existence of the living God, because he cannot refute Satan himself with all his host. And so it is written: "Demons believe and tremble".

Living faith where FULL obedience to Him and his word, where all thoughts are directed toward God. This belief is found in the matters of love and respect the commandments.

All people are judged for FAITH ( Matthew 25.34-40 ).

About the people of true and false faith, Christ said:

The good person out of the good treasure of his heart brings the good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure of the heart makes the evil...
