Indeed, our lives are guided by faith, not by sight.

2 Cor 5:7
Faith believes all God has said in His Word. Faith is accepting scriptural truth as a
firm fact. Faith is having assurance that what we hope for in Christ will certainly
come to pass indeed without faith it is impossible to please God
Walking by faith in this life, means we are to rely completely on all that God has said
in His Word. The life of faith is filtering our thoughts; actions; attitudes and words
through the Holy Scriptures as we listen to the inner promptings of the Holy Spirit;
follow His directions and trust in the Lord with all our heart.
We are saved by grace through faith in Christ and we are to walk by faith and not by
sight nor by what we imagine or what we feel. But sadly, many Christians are
diverted away from this path of faith to living by sight; by signs; by senses and
emotions by feelings; by worldly philosophies or extra-biblical revelations
especially when they see lifes stormy seas and the mountains of difficult
circumstances rising up to block their path.
However the man or woman that lives by faith as well as being saved by faith
accepts the truth that God uses all the storms and problems of life, as well as times
of great joy and rejoicing to remove all the pride and selfishness of our old sin
nature, as He gently conforms us into the beautiful image of the Lord Jesus.
The man or woman who lives by faith uses lifes stumbling-blocks as stepping
stones. Faith allows obstacles to be changed into opportunities and wounds to
become a witness to the generous grace that He pours out into our lives in great
abundance so that we may become healing balm godly and comfort in the lives of
others facing similar difficulties.
Living by faith frequently contrasts the visible unreality of this fake, false and failing
world with the invisible reality of true; glorious; eternal; heavenly things that are our
promised inheritance, in Christ. Happy is the one that understands that faith is not
only required for salvation but also the necessary ingredient to live a victorious
Christian life. Living by faith simply means that we trust completely in all that God
has said in His Word.
We lift our eyes not to circumstance or what is before us and weighing us down, we
lift our eyes not to discouragement and disappointment but we lift them up to God.
We dont use our natural sight but we live with our eyes firmly fixed upon Jesus, the
author of our faith and this is what keeps us putting one foot in front of the other,
walking by faith.
