As believers of Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, we are expected to have faith in Him as our maker and as the One who changes not. His Word did not fell as void. It is God that made us and everything around us. What \he said He will do will come to past.
All Bible quotes in this
post are quoted from International Standard Version (ISV).
Hebrews 11 defined faith
as the assurance that we hope for and it will come about and the certainty that
what we cannot see exists. Definitely, faith is the assurance of things we hope
for that certainly it will come to pass. Faith goes hand in hand with believe.
If we believe in Christ Jesus, certainly, our faith is guaranteed.
In every aspect of our
life, we should have faith in Him who never sleep nor slumber. Having faith in
the Lord is what keep us as believer. We are encouraged to have faith in God
even when our request has not been made yet. The faith will make us to believe
that He still exist and He will answer us in His own way and time. The clock of
our Lord Jesus Christ, did not delay or stay redundant because of batteries or
anything. It come to pass as God want it to be. Faith make us to be patience
with Our Maker.

believed in and it come to pass in their lives. Some of them are: Abel, Enoch,
Noah, Abraham and Sarah, Isaac, Joseph, Moses, Rahab, Gideon, Samson, David,
Samuel, and many more.
