5/16/2025 Daily Devotion: Faith In Action

Hebrews 11

FAITH is confident assurance in God, a conviction that He is Truth.

• Hebrews 11 shows us that true FAITH IN GOD starts with acknowledging the reality of God & His role as Creator of all. God creating everything that we know & see is a vital starting point for Faith … He is God, we are not!

• Hebrews 11 shows us that true FAITH IN GOD will produce ACTION in our lives … specifically, Faith produces action that is in OBEDIENCE to & DEPENDENCE on God.

Faith is BELIEF IN ACTION.

• Abel sacrificed to God obediently.

• Enoch pleased God with all of his life.

• Noah trusted God & dedicated his life to constructing the ark in the face of total humiliation.

• Abraham followed God by leaving the comfort of his home and depending on God for His Provision.

• Sarah believed God to be Faithful and watched Him reframe possible for her.

• Abraham obediently offered up God’s Promise back to Him … knowing & trusting God to remain faithful beyond his own understanding.

• Isaac, Jacob & Joseph trusted God with their future generations, intentionally Blessing them and being confident that God would remain with them.

• Moses’ parents valued his life over their own, risking their own life to preserve his life.

• Moses identified himself with God over his society and status. He then obeyed God by stepping past his own levels of comfort & calling into God’s Will.

• Rahab was drawn to God by seeing how He worked in the world around her … she trusted Him before even meeting Him and gave her life to Him.

These examples of FAITH show us how to live out our own Faith … ACTIVELY!

FAITH = Know God -> Love God -> Trust God -> Obey God
