THE SECRET STRENGTH OF FAITH by BROTHER SAMUEL QUAYSON - MEDASS

 

 



“Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.”

Hebrews 10:23 (NKJV).

Faith is not strong because of how we feel: it is strong because of what it feeds on.

“WHAT DOES YOUR FAITH FEED ON?”

The true strength of faith lies in its diet: the promises of God. Just as physical strength depends on nourishment, spiritual strength depends on what we meditate on and believe. Faith is based on God's unchanging nature and covenant; it is not false hope.

The Source of Faith’s Strength

1. Faith Feeds on God’s Promises

Faith draws its strength from the promises of God. It doesn’t merely admire the size of the promise—it trusts the heart of the One who made it. Faith says, “If God promised it, He will perform it.”

  • Scripture: “So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”

Romans 10:17

  • Scripture: “God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do it?”Numbers 23:19

2. Faith Trusts the Character of God

Faith is not based on circumstances but on the unchanging nature of God. He is faithful, omnipotent, and immutable. His Word is as reliable as His nature.

  • Scripture: “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”Hebrews 13:8
  • Scripture: “The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever.” Isaiah 40:8

3. Faith Looks to the Cross

The cross is the ultimate proof of God’s commitment to us. If He gave us His Son, He will not withhold anything else we need.

  • Scripture: “He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?”Romans 8:32

4. Faith Remembers Past Victories

Faith is strengthened by memory. It recalls past deliverances and draws courage from them. What God has done before, He can do again.

  • Scripture: “Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits.”Psalm 103:2
  • Scripture: “Hitherto hath the Lord helped us.”1 Samuel 7:12

5. Faith Focuses on the Promise-Giver

Faith is anchored in the nature of God. Because it knows who God is, it walks forward with confidence.

  • Scripture: “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.”

Psalm 23:6.                                                                                                          

  • Scripture: “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.”Hebrews 10:23.
