Faith Flashcards
The obstacles that hinder our progress will never disappear before a halting, doubting spirit. Those who defer obedience till every shadow of uncertainty disappears….there remains no risk of failure or defeat, will never obey at all. ….faith courageously urges an advance…the path where God leads ..may lie through desert of the sea, but it is a safe path!!
PP290

Through faith, every deficiency of character may be supplied, every defilement cleansed, every fault corrected, every excellence developed.

Confound not faith and feeling together. They are distinct. Faith is ours to exercise. This faith we must keep in exercise. Believe, believe. Let your faith take hold of the blessing, and it is yours. Your feelings have nothing to do with this faith.

Pr 54.2
Faith is trusting in God,—believing that He loves us, and knows what is for our best good. Thus, instead of our own way, it leads us to choose His way. In place of our ignorance, it accepts His wisdom; in place of our weakness, His strength; in place of our sinfulness, His righteousness. Our lives, ourselves, are already His; faith acknowledges His ownership, and accepts its blessings. Truth, uprightness, purity, are pointed out as secrets of life’s success. It is faith that puts us in possession of these. Pr 54.3

God will be to us everything we will let Him be.
Pr 56
We have too little faith. The word of God is our endorsement. We must take it, simply believing every word. With this assurance, we may claim large things, and according to our faith it will be unto us. If we humble our hearts before God, if we seek to abide in Christ, we shall have a higher holier experience. True faith consists in doing just what God has enjoined, not manufacturing things he has not enjoined. Justice, truth, mercy, are the fruit of our faith, the proceeds of a heart renewed every day.

The greatest victories… [are those] which are gained in the audience chamber with God, when earnest, agonizing faith lays hold upon the mighty arm of power. .… “I will not let Thee go,“ he said except Thou bless me. “Living faith must grasp the promises unflinchingly ….”

It is just as much your duty to believe that God will fulfil His word, and forgive your sins, as it is your duty to confess your sins. You must exercise faith in God as in one who will do exactly as He has promised in His Word, and pardon all your transgressions. .
