Today, we begin to examine what makes faith living and accurate. The Bible doesn’t just speak of one kind of faith—it highlights various expressions: God’s kind of faith, the devil’s kind, Thomas’ kind, and more. If we are going to walk accurately as Christians, then we must understand what kind of faith we are meant to operate in. The devil seeks to redefine faith in your mind by tying it to your feelings or physical evidence. You’ll hear suggestions like, “Until I feel healed, I am not healed,” or “Until the money hits my account, I’m not blessed.” But Romans 3:4 says, “Let God be true, but every man a liar.”
Faith is not based on sight or feelings—it is based on God’s Word alone.
Jesus made a strong statement in John 20:29 after Thomas said he wouldn’t believe unless he saw with his own eyes. Jesus replied, “Blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.” That means God reserves a special blessing for those who operate the God-kind of faith—believing simply because God said so. Thomas had to see first before he believed. But Abraham, on the other hand, was called the father of faith because he acted on God’s Word without needing to see anything. God called him “a father of many nations” when he didn’t have a single child, and Abraham obeyed, even though he had no physical proof. That is faith in action—believing without seeing.
Someone once described faith like this: “It is standing on a diving board above an empty pool, but at God’s Word, you dive—fully confident that He will fill the pool with water before you land.” That picture captures the essence of how God wants us to live. If we wait until we see it to believe it, then we are no different from the world. Real faith—living faith—is not blind; it sees what God sees and trusts Him beyond what the physical senses suggest. That is the kind of faith that pleases God. Romans 12:3 tells us that God has given to every man the measure of faith. Your responsibility is to grow it, feed it with the Word, and live by it daily.
THOUGHT TO PONDER: What type of faith are you operating with—God’s kind, Thomas’, or the world’s? Are you willing to believe and act even when you cannot see?
Father, thank You for giving me the measure of faith. Help me to grow it, act on it, and please You daily with it, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
