If "faith" is the noun, "to believe" should be the verb. But when learning about faith, we see that real faith requires more than a single action. But the Bible's chapter of faith, Hebrews 11, shows us there are more verbs related to faith than to believe. In the list of heroes of faith, there are nineteen selected persons. Depending on the Bible version you read, you might find about 80 verbs in this chapter. Some of them are about the practice of faith. Others are the result of that practice. However, the point here is that faith should be something clearly demonstrated in every single Christian life. As James states, "I will show you my faith by my works (my action)" (James 2:18).In the Old or New Testament, the truth is the same: "The righteous shall live by faith." (Galatians 3:10; Habakkuk 2:4). Christian life happens by faith. Works of faith, the doings of faith, are vividly and powerfully described in the Bible. The examples used in Hebrews 11 don't crush our soul with commandments or unreachable maturity, but encourages us to stand as overcomers in any time of trial. God is inviting us to sign our names in that hall of fame. For that, we need to actively use our faith. I once visited the Hollywood Walk of Fame. If I can be openly honest with you, it was such a disappointment. The surroundings reeked of urine. Drug dealers were spread all over the path. There were so many souvenirs stores it made it hard to appreciate anything. I could not stop asking myself, "What is the benefit of having your name here?" Artists, directors and famous icons have their names on The Walk of Fame, but there is a better list to write your name. The list of those that believe. How can your have your name there? It is a matter of activating your faith. This is what we want help you to do.
