I have faith in God.
Jesus replied, “Have faith in God [constantly]. – Mark 11:22
Faith is having a deep “[abiding trust in God and His promises].” (1 Corinthians 13:verse 12 (AMP))
Faith is “the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed).” (Hebrews 11:1)
Faith is “an inherent trust and enduring confidence in the power, wisdom and goodness of God“. (Hebrews 11:3)
Hebrews 11:1-3 Amplified Bible (AMP)
1 Now faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed), and the evidence of things not seen [the conviction of their reality—faith comprehends as fact what cannot be experienced by the physical senses].
2 For by this [kind of] faith the [a]men of old gained [divine] approval.
3 By faith [that is, with an inherent trust and enduring confidence in the power, wisdom and goodness of God] we understand that the worlds (universe, ages) were framed and created [formed, put in order, and equipped for their intended purpose] by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible.
1 Corinthians 13:verses 12-13 Amplified Bible (AMP)
12 For now [in this time of imperfection] we see in a mirror dimly [a blurred reflection, a riddle, an enigma], but then [when the time of perfection comes we will see reality] face to face. Now I know in part [just in fragments], but then I will know fully, just as I have been fully known [by God].
13 And now there remain:
faith [abiding trust in God and His promises],
hope [confident expectation of eternal salvation],
love [unselfish love for others growing out of God’s love for me],
these three [the choicest graces];
but the greatest of these is love.
