Believe, Receive and Rest, Part 1
In this powerful exploration of faith, we dive deep into the essence of what it means to truly believe. The message centers around Hebrews 11:1, which defines faith as 'the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.' We're challenged to consider how we react when faced with circumstances that contradict God's Word. Do we respond with faith or fear? Pastor Andrew emphasizes that as believers, we have the authority to stand against anything that doesn't align with God's will for our lives. We're reminded that faith isn't about having more, but about using what we already have - even faith as small as a mustard seed can move mountains. This message encourages us to exercise our faith daily, speaking God's promises and acting on His Word. It's a call to live a life marked by faith, where our actions and decisions are guided by our trust in God's unfailing promises.
