Don’t Put Your Faith in Faith
“For the Scripture says, ‘Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.’ For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For ‘whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.’”
Romans 10:11-13

Ponder This
Don’t put faith in faith, put faith in Jesus. The devil used to ask me, “Adrian, how do you know you really believe enough?” I learned how to turn the tables on him. I would say, “You know, devil, you’re right. My faith is weak, but Jesus is wonderful. I’m not putting my faith in my faith. I’m putting my faith in Jesus.” Don’t look at your looking; don’t put faith in faith, put faith in Jesus. Faith in faith is positive thinking. Faith in Jesus is salvation.
Now the object of faith is God. So, what should be your ambition? To know God! That’s the reason the Bible says we’re to be, “Looking unto Jesus, the author and the finisher of our faith” (Hebrews 12:2). If you look to yourself, you’re going to be discouraged and weak. Put your eyes on Him. Your great need today is to come to know Him.
The more you know about Him, the more you’re going to find faith as the byproduct of your heart. When you look to Jesus, when you discover the God of the Bible, when you come to see Him, you’re going to find out that faith is obvious in your heart and in your life.
- When has your faith felt weak? Why? How did you get through that time?
- How are faith in Jesus and faith in faith different? How has God helped you put your faith in Jesus?
