Understanding The Simplicity of Faith

Faith is a subject that many people struggle with, but is most easily understood through humility and trust. The heart rather than the mind is the best vehicle to use in the pursuit and development of faith.

5 Simple Things About Faith

Faith Grows

(Matthew 13:31-32)

Another parable He put forth to them, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field, which indeed is the least of all the seeds; but when it is grown it is greater than the herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches.”

Faith Requires Childlikeness

(Matthew 18:2-4)

Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

Faith is Constant

(Luke 8:25)

But He said to them, “Where is your faith?”

And they were afraid, and marveled, saying to one another, “Who can this be? For He commands even the winds and water, and they obey Him!”

Faith must be Practiced

(Mark 5:35-36)

While He was still speaking, some came from the ruler of the synagogue’s house who said, “Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?”

As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, He said to the ruler of the synagogue, “Do not be afraid; only believe.”

Faith has a Reward

(Hebrews 11:6)

But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

Read and ponder these scriptures and ask the Holy Spirit to grant you an understanding heart.
