To Experience God, You Must Believe Him By Faith

To Experience God, You Must Believe Him By FaithSummary:What is Faith?Hebrews 11:1 ESV11 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction (or evidence) of things not seen.
Hebrews 11:6 says, "And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him."
This verse is about coming to God by believing he is and that he is a rewarder but did you notice it starts with talking about faith. Faith is how we come to God and faith is the assurance of things hoped for and the conviction (or evidence) of things not seen. 
That means we come to God believing he exist without seeing him and believing he is a rewarder before we experience it. 
We believe God is who he says he is before we see it and experience it.
If you want to know God as the Healer he claims to be in Exodus 15:26, then you have to believe he is that while you are still sick.
Faith isn’t a wait and see before you believe.
Faith is believe and you will see.
Mark 927 As Jesus passed by from there, two blind men followed him, calling out and saying, “Have mercy on us, son of David!” 28 When he had come into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?”They told him, “Yes, Lord.”29 Then he touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith be it done to you.” 30 Then their eyes were opened.  
They believed Jesus could before he did.
Faith is believing you have received, then you will have.
Mark 1122 Jesus answered them, “Have faith in God. 23 For most certainly I tell you, whoever may tell this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and doesn’t doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is happening; he shall have whatever he says. 24 Therefore I tell you, all things whatever you pray and ask for, believe that you have received them, and you shall have them.We have to see beyond our present circumstances and believe God is who he says he is and then we can know him for who he revealed himself to be.Blessings in Christ,
