2 Corinthians 5:7
“For we live by faith, not by sight.”
If there is one life skill we need as Christians it is definitely the skill of faith. As Christians we must learn to faith it in this life that we are living. Without faith we will not get far in this life neither will we even succeed at life itself. Walking by faith is trusting in God and in His All Knowing and all powerful self. As Christians we must walk by faith knowing that irrespective of the circumstances of life Jesus is still Lord, and He is able to do all things. Walking by faith is not merely having knowledge that nothing is greater than God neither is there anything too hard for Him, but also trusting wholeheartedly that this is true.
When you walk by faith you keep your eyes fixed and Christ, regardless of the direction life takes and the outcomes that you find yourself faced with. When you walk by faith your are not limited by sight because sight can not only be deceiving but sight can also eluding. Walking by faith is having confidence in the darkness phases and in the dark valleys that Jesus is Lord. It is knowing without a shadow of a doubt that life will always work out in your favor even if the odds are against you. Walking by faith is allowing God to take His place in your life as the Author and Finisher of your faith. Walk by faith and you will be amazed with the doings of the Lord.
