2. MATTHEW 17:19-20 NASB
19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately
and said, "Why could we not drive it out?"
20 And He said to them, "Because of the
littleness of your faith; for truly I say to you, if
you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you
will say to this mountain, `Move from here to
there,' and it will move; and nothing will be
impossible to you.

4. FAITH MATTERS

5. FAITH is not knowing what the future holds,
but knowing who holds the future.

6. Extraordinary life =
God’s power + FAITH (our part)

7. FAITH THAT RESTORES

11. Do you want to restore what was broken?
Have FAITH God is a God of restoration.

12. Luke 15:11-32 CEV
11 Jesus also told them another story: Once a man
had two sons.
12 The younger son said to his father, “Give me
my share of the property.” So the father divided
his property between his two sons. 13 Not long
after that, the younger son packed up everything
he owned and left for a foreign country, where
he wasted all his money in wild living.
14 He had spent everything, when a bad famine
spread through that whole land. Soon he had
nothing to eat.

13. 15 He went to work for a man in that country, and
the man sent him out to take care of his pigs.
16 He would have been glad to eat what the pigs
were eating, but no one gave him a thing.
17 Finally, he came to his senses and said,
“My father’s workers have plenty to eat, and
here I am, starving to death! 18 I will go to my
father and say to him, ‘Father, I have sinned
against God in heaven and against you.
19 I am no longer good enough to be called your
son. Treat me like one of your workers.’”

14. 20 The younger son got up and started back to his
father. But when he was still a long way off, his
father saw him and felt sorry for him. He ran to
his son and hugged and kissed him.
21 The son said, “Father, I have sinned against God
in heaven and against you. I am no longer good
enough to be called your son.”
22 But his father said to the servants, “Hurry and
bring the best clothes and put them on him. Give
him a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet.

15. 23 Get the best calf and prepare it, so we can eat
and celebrate. 24 This son of mine was dead, but
has now come back to life. He was lost and has
now been found.” And they began to celebrate.

16. 25 The older son had been out in the field.
But when he came near the house, he heard the
music and dancing.
26 So he called one of the servants over and
asked, “What’s going on here?” 27 The servant
answered, “Your brother has come home safe
and sound, and your father ordered us to kill the
best calf.”
28 The older brother got so angry that he would
not even go into the house. His father came out
and begged him to go in.

17. 29 But he said to his father, “For years I have
worked for you like a slave and have always
obeyed you. But you have never even given me a
little goat, so that I could give a dinner for my
friends. 30 This other son of yours wasted your
money on prostitutes. And now that he has come
home, you ordered the best calf to be killed for a
feast.” 31 His father replied, “My son, you are
always with me, and everything I have is yours.
32 But we should be glad and celebrate! Your
brother was dead, but he is now alive. He was
lost and has now been found.”

19. FAITH THAT RESTORES
IS A FAITH THAT…

20. HOPES
ONE

21. FAITH gives life to hope and
HOPE strengthens our faith.

22. It’s IMPOSSIBLE to have hope
WITHOUT faith.

23. In every darkness, there’s a light.
In every struggle, there’s a way.
In every faith, there’s a hope.

24. Roma 4:19-21
19 Hindi nanghina ang kanyang pananampalataya
kahit uugud-ugod na siya, palibhasa'y isandaang taon
na siya noon, at ang kanya namang asawang si Sara
ay baog. 18 Kahit wala nang pag-asang magkaanak,
nanalig pa rin si Abraham na siya'y magiging ama ng
maraming bansa, ayon sa sinabi sa kanya, “Sindami
ng mga bituin ang iyong magiging lahi.” 20 Hindi siya
nag-alinlangan sa pangako ng Diyos. Sa halip, lalo
siyang lumakas dahil sa kanyang pananampalataya at
nagpuri pa sa Diyos. 21 Lubos siyang naniwala na
tutuparin ng Diyos ang ipinangako nito.

25. Hebrews 11:1 NIV
Now faith is confidence in what we hope for
and assurance about what we do not see.

28. Romans 8:24-25 NASB
24 For in hope we have been saved, but hope
that is seen is not hope; for who hopes for
what he already sees? 25 But if we hope for
what we do not see, with perseverance we
wait eagerly for it.

29. When you feel your faith is fading,
read the Scriptures for guidance, support
and reassurance that there is hope.

32. RESPONDS
TWO

33. Faith is our response
to our brokenness.

34. James 2:14-16 NASB
14 What use is it, my brethren, if someone says he
has faith but he has no works? Can that faith save
him? 15 If a brother or sister is without clothing
and in need of daily food, 16 and one of you says
to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and be filled,”
and yet you do not give them what is necessary
for their body, what use is that?
17 Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead,
being by itself.

35. Whatever circumstance that may happen in
your life, when you respond by faith in God
you will see His greatness unfold.

36. Matthew 21:20-22 ESV
20 When the disciples saw it, they marveled,
saying, “How did the fig tree wither at once?”
21 And Jesus answered them, “Truly, I say to
you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will
not only do what has been done to the fig tree,
but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up
and thrown into the sea,’ it will
happen. 22 And whatever you ask in prayer, you
will receive, if you have faith.”

37. Faith is not a bare belief or
intellectual understanding.
It is a willingness to trust God.
It is faith that focuses on Christ and
not to yourself.

38. God is a God of restoration.
When we place the broken pieces of
our lives in His hands, He restores
them to a beauty that far outshines
the former.

40. Whenever God restores something,
He restores it to a place
greater than it was before.

41. Joel 2:25-26 NKJV
“So I will restore to you the years that the
swarming locust has eaten, The crawling
locust, The consuming locust, And the chewing
locust, My great army which I sent among you.
26 You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, And
praise the name of the LORD your God, Who
has dealt wondrously with you; And My
people shall never be put to shame.

42. God can restore what is broken and
change it into something amazing
all you need is FAITH.

43. Romans 5:10-11 NASB
10 For if while we were enemies we were
reconciled to God through the death of His
Son, much more, having been reconciled, we
shall be saved by His life.
11 And not only this, but we also exult in God
through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom
we have now received the reconciliation.
