Hebrews 11: the Hall of Faith. This is not just a record of what other before us have done by faith, but an instructive example of what WE who now are participants in the new and better covenant can ALSO do by FAITH.
I was inspired to see each verse’s statement of what was done by faith and write it out as what faith is able to work IN ME. And now I’m sharing it with you because that’s what I do.
I invite you to grab a bible and follow along with each verse:

"So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ." Romans 5:17 ESV
"Faith, then, is birthed in a heart that responds to God’s anointed utterance of the Anointed One." Romans 5:17 TPT
The strength of our faith increases and decreases in direct proportion to how much or how little of God's Words we intake while choosing to believe it.
"For good news came to us just as to them, but the message they heard did not benefit them, because they were not united by faith with those who listened." Hebrews 4:2 ESV
But YOU GUYS are those who choose to believe what they hear Jesus say! You are those of faith! You are the ones expereincing transformation through His Words! And the great news is that if you inspect yourself and do not see transformation, it's as easy as saying, "Holy Spirit, please show me where I don't fully believe." AND HE DOES.
"So search your hearts every day, my brothers and sisters, and make sure that none of you has evil or unbelief hiding within you. For it will lead you astray, and make you unresponsive to the living God." Hebrews 3:12 TPT
"But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and preserve their souls." Hebrews 10:39 ESV
