Faith has always been the key to pleasing God (Heb. 11:6). But faith is not the same in every dispensation. Israel’s faith was often tied to covenants, signs, and obedience under the Law, while today our faith is placed exclusively in the gospel of Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection (1 Cor. 15:1–4). God honors faith because faith removes boasting and glorifies His grace, and when we walk by faith, we honor God by trusting His Word above our feelings, traditions, or works.

True faith rests upon the finished work of Christ, not human effort (Romans 3:22, 26).

Faith anchors us in the hope of the rapture and eternal glory (Titus 2:13; 2 Cor. 5:7–10).

At the Judgment Seat of Christ, faithfulness will be rewarded — crowns are given not for wealth or works of the flesh, but for walking by faith (2 Tim. 4:7–8).

𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻

From Genesis to Revelation, faith has been the way to please God. But in this dispensation of grace, God honors those who trust Christ alone for salvation and live by faith in His Word rightly divided. And faith honors God by glorifying Him, not self. Let us remember: Faith begins where human reasoning ends, and it ends in giving God all the glory.

𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗼 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻

Believe the gospel of Christ for salvation (1 Cor. 15:1–4)
Build your life on the Word of God rightly divided
Break away from trusting your flesh
Boldly fight the good fight of faith
Bear fruit that glorifies God
Bring your burdens to God in prayer
Behold the liberty of grace
Balance your walk by faith, not feelings
Broadcast the gospel to others
Brace yourself with the hope of Christ’s return
Bow in humility, giving God glory
Be faithful until the end, awaiting eternal rewards
