Very Rightly has it been said that one does not walk by sight alone but by faith. And this so true. Have you witnessed such incidents in your life when just by evidence or facts or by mere qualitative analysis, things just don’t work? In the film ‘Man of Steel’ when Clark Kent was unable to decide whether he should reveal his identity as superman to the world or not, he went to a priest and the priest told him that sometimes the “Leap of Faith” is the first thing that we must do, and the trust part comes later. Christ has said the same things to us. Because in order to achieve and accomplish the unreal and extraordinary, we must cease to think and believe what is ordinary. Extraordinary things happen when extraordinary faith is put into practice. 

Bible verses on faith have helped me remind myself every time I try to put forward reality in the face of faith. And what is quite obvious is, I fail miserably! These bible verses on faith will help you meditate and reflect on certain truths about life which if ignored can lead to a huge vacuum in life. Go through these verses and think about them as well.

Bible Verses On Faith #1

I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love. Ephesians 3:16-17

Read this part again, “Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith”. And yes, it is through faith, and by means of faith can Christ continue to stay in our hearts. Because all the time, the world will try to put its realistic foot ahead and we may think Christ is just an idea. But no! He is the Only Reality. Thus, we need to allow Christ to dwell in us, and this can only happen through faith.

Bible Verses On Faith #2

Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. Mark 11:12

Some people call this the ” Law of Attraction”. But there is no law that comes from other places apart from God. God provides us our needs and when we ask from him in faith, knowing that he has already given it to us, it truly happens. That’s the power of Faith. Moreover, God is happy when we have such great confidence in Him.

Bible Verses On Faith #3

For we live by faith, not by sight. 2 Corinthians 5:7

Here we go! Have you ever thought about the depth of this verse? A very simple explanation can be is, our God is the creator of everything  ‘seen ad un seen’. This explains the fact that there are things that cannot be seen yet exists. Thus, we need to live by faith and not just by sight alone.

Bible Verses On Faith #4

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. Hebrews 11:1

No material understanding can suffice our hunger for the divine. Hence, faith is the only requisite for the hope and assurance that we wish to see during impossible times.

Bible Verses On Faith #5

But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. James 1:6

Oh yes! Read this again and again. This bible verse on faith is so applicable for people who ask in prayer but never believe in the power of God.

Bible Verses On Faith #6

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13

The Holy Spirit fills us with its gifts and fruits. It fills us with hope and joy and peace. However, the point is, the holy spirit is again unseen, and can only be felt. Therefore, have faith.

Bible Verses On Faith #7

Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God? John 11:40

And so Jesus tells us over here the prime reason for having faith. Most of them cry and whine about God not answering their prayers. We should ask ourselves, before expecting God to answer us, do we have faith in God?

Bible Verses On Faith #8

And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. Hebrews 11:6

A continuation of the previous bible verse on faith.

Bible Verses On Faith #9

“‘If you can’?” said Jesus. “Everything is possible for one who believes.” Mark 9:23

Another explosion of such a powerful verse. Everything is possible for someone who believes. Awesome!

Bible Verses On Faith #10

Because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. James 1:3

There are so many instances in life when the faithful’s faith gets tested. It is not that God always tests our faith. Bit, sometimes the situation makes us choose between the normal and the divine. That is when we should decide if our faith takes the driver’s seat or the back seat. Because the test of our faith produces perseverance and that is necessary.

Bible Verses On Faith #11

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?” John 11:25-26

How many times does faith/believe is demanded of us in this bible verse? Three times. Do you realize that the number three has a strange relationship with resurrection? Just kidding! Well, faith can move mountains, and it can also save us from eternal damnation.

Bible Verses On Faith #12

Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.             1 Peter 1:8-9

Isn’t this the best definition of faith? Wow! If anyone asks you ‘ what do you mean by faith?’ State this verse to that person.

Bible Verses On Faith #13

If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer. Matthew 21:22

Another similar verse on the power of faith. Only if you believe in something, it can happen.

Bible Verses On Faith #14

For everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.                     1 John 5:4

I keep saying this again and again. The world and its thoughts can never answer the question that you have of the divine. Hence, the one born of God will surely overcome the world, and it will also overcome the tendency to stumble down in faith.

Bible Verses On Faith #15

But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness.              1 Timothy 6:11

What is this “all this” that is being spoken about over here? It is everything that belongs to the world: fame, money, luxury, ego, vices, pleasures, etc. Give us those and embrace righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance, and gentleness.

Bible Verses On Faith #16

Accept the one whose faith is weak, without quarreling over disputable matters. Romans 14:1

Along with strengthening our own faith, we must also accept those whose faith is weak or maybe weaker than ours. We are all children of the same father. Hence let us not distinguish and discriminate or judge somebody because their faith is weak. Rather, let’s accept one another.

Bible Verses On Faith #17

If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 1 Corinthians 13:2

And thus, along with faith, we need love. Love completes us.

Bible Verses On Faith #18

“Go,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you.” Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along the road. Mark 10:52

And such is the power of faith. My dear, faith is extremely powerful. People are healed from miserable situations in life because of faith. At the same time, people fall from the highest grounds because of not having faith.

Bible Verses On Faith #19

Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.” John 6:35

therefore, if we want to quench our thirst for love and peace in our lives, we must be ready to accept Jesus and believe in him.

Bible Verses On Faith #20

I have chosen the way of faithfulness;
I have set my heart on your laws. Psalm 119:30

Finally, choose the way of faithfulness rather than that of disbelief. I assure you, your life is going to change for the best. If you are faithful to God, you will choose to remain obedient to his laws.

Thus, faith is a beautiful gift that God has given us. There has been so many instances in my life when the world was completely against me, but I stood still and had faith in Jesus. He tells me to ‘Be Still’ and know that he is God and he is in control. Therefore even if the sky is falling down, my faith should never fall.
