45 Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her!”
Luke 1:45 NIV
Hebrews 11:1 “Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, a conviction of things not seen.” Hebrews 11:1 is not so much a definition of what faith is, as it is a description of what faith does. Two truths concerning its activity are stated here. First, faith provides substance Though broad in its usages, this Greek word normally has the meaning of “assurance” in the New Testament and this seems to be the best sense here. Second, faith provides evidence . It is evidence in the sense of proof that results in conviction. The difference between assurance and evidence would be minimal were it not for the phrase qualifying each: of things hoped for and of things not seen. The first involves future hope; the second involves present realities that are unseen. The first includes the hope of the resurrection, the return of Christ, and the glorification of the saints. The second involves unseen realities, such as the forgiveness of sin through Christ’s sacrifice and the present intercession of Christ in heaven. Hope is faith relating to the future; conviction is faith relating to the present.
Every man lives by faith, the non-believer as well as the saint; the one by faith in natural laws and the other by faith in God.
A. W. Tozer
Faith is nothing but believing what God promises or says. Whatever remarkable thing we read of happening in the Old or New Testament, we read that it was done by faith—not by works, not by a general faith, but by faith directed to the matter in hand.
Martin Luther

And blessed is she that believed; for there shall be a fulfilment of the things which have been spoken to her from the Lord.”
