"But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him."

Afternoon Bible Study
Hebrews chapter 11 is often referred to as the Hall of Faith. In this chapter, we read about some of the great heroes of the faith.

These Old Testament heroes were much like we are today, but we find them especially memorable because of their faith in God.

So, what is faith? It is being certain and having complete trust in someone or something. It means that we have the action of faith before we experience the outcome that we hope for.

When these men and women, whom we consider heroes of the faith, faced difficult situations, they didn't give up. Instead, they believed God and waited for Him to fulfill the promises He had made to them. Even if they only experienced a glimpse of what God had promised, they lived a life of faith.



Sometimes having faith means that we never see the fulfillment of God's promises in our lifetime, but we should still remain faithful. We can be assured that His promises are eternal; they last forever.

We can put all of our faith in God, knowing that if He doesn't answer our prayers while we are alive, He will still be faithful to what He has said even after we are gone.This truth is comforting to those who pray for salvation, healing, or deliverance for a loved one. When we seek God with all of our hearts and put our faith in Him, we will never be disappointed.

After all, salvation is the greatest reward we will ever receive, and it is gifted to us through our faith in God.
Afternoon Prayer

Help me put all of my faith and trust in you without holding anything back.In Jesus's name, amen.

Yesterday Afternoon's Bible Study
"Everyone on Earth wants to be happy. Theologian Aurelius Augustine once said, "I am not alone in this desire for happiness, nor are there only a few who share it with me: without exception, we all long for happiness They may all search for it in different ways, but all try their hardest to reach the same goal, that is, joy."

A search for joy and happiness can explain most human behavior and people typically search in all the wrong places, rather than simply turning to God. The world tends to depict God as stern and serious and anti--fun, but that is far from the truth! The Bible reveals that God Himself is the giver of the only true joy available to humanity.

God not only wants us to receive His joy, but to revel in it so much that it fills us to overflowing.

So how do we find this godly joy? It begins by seeking the Lord's presence in our everyday lives. When we are aware of His goodness all around us, it takes our eyes off our worries and cares of this life. This re--focus allows us to understand that God is continuously reaching out to extend His love toward us, His children.
