Mark 11:22-24 NKJV
“So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God. For assuredly,
I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast
into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those
things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I
say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you
receive them, and you will have them.”

WHAT FAITH REALLY IS
Hebrews 11:1 KJV
“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”
There are several definitions of faith out there that would do justice to the subject of faith, but the commonest of them all is the fact that "faith is the substance of things hoped for and it is the evidence of things not seen". There are a few things that make faith what it is indeed, and they as follows:
i) Faith is a Substance: A substance is something that has the quality of being meaningful, useful, or important. It is something tangible; such that when you have it, you know that you have it, and there would be no doubt about it.
Ii) Faith is an Evidence: Evidence is something which shows that something else exists or is true. In this context, our evidence is the word of God.
Once God says a thing, it proofs positive that what He said will surely come to pass, because He has integrity and His word has never failed before.
So, each time you want to exercise your faith, look for your evidence in the scriptures, without which your case will not hold sway, and you will have no results.
iii. It is used to have unseen things: With faith, you do not need to physically see things to get them. So, faith is the means by which things move from the invisible realm to the visible. Faith is how you move things from the spirit to the physical realm.
There is too much that God has kept for us in the realm of the spirit, but we cannot access them until we produce the faith for them.
Remember that God said in Ephesians 1:3, that we have been blessed with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus, but those things will come only by faith.
Faith is the currency with which you bring them from unseen realms to the visible realm.
Receive faith for all that is yours in Jesus Name.
Assignment
i. Study today's devotional again and make personal notes on what you think and believe faith is.
ii. Use your new revelation of faith in any area of concern in your life.
iii. Talk about your findings by sharing them with a friend. The more you talk about them, the deeper they sink into your spirit.
Prayer
-Lord I thank and appreciate you for this insight.
-Lord please open my eyes to see more about the subject of faith in Jesus Name.
-I release my faith in absolute trust and confidence in you in Jesus Name.
Nugget
Faith is the currency with which you bring your promises from the unseen realm of the spirit to the visible realm.
