In this sermon, I'll explain why it is crucial for every believer to have faith, because without faith it is impossible to please God (Heb 11:6).

What does it mean to have faith? Faith means focus—to keep one’s focus on God’s love, His word and His promises; to not be distracted from God, despite what one sees or feels. There are three levels of faith: little faith (Matt 8:23) is when you struggle to believe, when you are distracted by what’s going on around you and cannot focus on God. Great faith is strong and unwavering faith in the face of circumstances, such as the faith of the centurion in Matt 8:5-10 and the Canaanite woman (Matt 15:22-28). The highest level of faith is perfect faith, which is trusting obedience regardless of outcome. Perfect faith is when we can obey God whether or not we are healed or blessed, just like Jesus.

Be encouraged by this message to grow in your faith in God!
