Day 2

Day 2:

READ: Hebrews 11

The third qualification of prayer is prayer should be in faith. 

 

This passage in Hebrews is an amazing passage that is also known as the “by faith” chapter. Consider just one of these “by faith” stories. Abraham was told by God to leave the land of his fathers to a land, which God would show him. We can read over this lightly but this was a HUGE decision. Abraham had no idea where he was going; he only knew that God was sending him. God covenanted with Abraham not only changing his name but making good on his promise to make his descendants more numerous than the sand on the shores. 

Think about what God has called you to do. You are leaving your place of comfort, to a strange culture, away from what you know, simply because God has asked you to. Despite everything you can think of that would stop you from going…here you are, ready to go. You are stepping out “by faith”. We don’t know what we will experience or what God has in store for us, but we will step out in faith.

Our prayer life should be the same. God wants a relationship with us. He wants you to know Him.

Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.

CHALLENGE: Spend time thanking God for the call to go that you have answered “by faith”. Pray that God will give you direction.
