Application
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Faith is laying hold of the unrealities of hope and bringing them into the realm of reality (by acting on the Word)

The fundamental fact of existence is that this trust in God, this faith, is the firm foundation under everything that makes life worth living. It’s our handle on what we can’t see.
God’s Word is the Highest Reality available to us!
Faith changes things, not God!
Believe and Receive!
For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.
You remove the mountain the same way it was created.
You remove the mountain the same way it was created.
By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.
Faith is of the Heart
Faith is of the Heart
But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach):
that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Faith is of the Spirit and Soul.
Spirit- Conscience, Intuition, and Communion
Faith-Hope-Love (Spiritual Forces)
And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak,
All of these have a secondary source: Sin or Holy Spirit
Soul- Mind, Emotion, and Will
Trust-Wish-Affection (Natural Forces)
Ear Gate-Eye Gate
Believing is an Action Word!
Believing is an Action Word!
Act on the Word!
Moreover, keep on becoming doers of the Word and stop being hearers only, reasoning yourselves into a false premise and thus deceiving yourselves, because if, as is the case, anyone is a hearer of the Word and not a doer, this one is like a man attentively considering in a mirror the face with which he was born. For he took one look at himself and was off, and he immediately forgot what sort of a person he was. But he who with eagerness and concentration has pored over the perfect law, the law of liberty, and has continued in it, not having been a hearer who forgets but a doer who works, this person shall be prospered spiritually in his doing.
You were not created to have a divided heart.
Leads to instability
Faith without works is dead
Faith brings what is possible into the realm of the impossible.
