(1) Faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. Prayer fuels our faith which unlocks revival and miracles. (2) To please God, we cannot play it safe but must take risks. As long as we have guarantees, we don't have faith. (3) Stepping toward our destiny means stepping away from security. By faith, Abraham obeyed God's call even though he didn't know where he was going.

3. Hebrews 11:1-2
Now faith is confidence in what we
hope for and assurance about what we
do not see. 2 This is what the ancients
were commended for.

5. Prayer is the key that
unlocks the door of revival
that allows miracles will
overflow.

6. John 1:12
12 Yet to all who did receive him, to
those who believed in his name, he
gave the right to become children of
God—

7. Mark 16:16-18
16 Whoever believes and is baptized will
be saved, but whoever does not believe
will be condemned. 17 And these signs
will accompany those who believe: In
my name they will drive out demons; they
will speak in new tongues;

8. Mark 16:16-18
18 they will pick up snakes with their
hands; and when they drink deadly
poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will
place their hands on sick people, and
they will get well.

9. You can only receive
Him to the measure you
trust Him.

10. Faith is the by-product
of our trust in God.Prayer fuels our faith.
Faith is also a way of
worshipping God.

11. We are faith-filled,
big-thinking, bet the farm
risk takers.
We will never insult God
with small thinking or safe
living.

12. Jesus is not hindered by
His capability but by
our faith in Him.
Rejection of Jesus

13. Mark 6:5-6
5 He could not do any miracles there, except
lay his hands on a few sick people and heal
them. 6 He was amazed at their lack of
faith.

14. Jesus can do a lot if
only we believe in Him.
Faith of the Centurion

15. Luke 7:9
9 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at
him, and turning to the crowd following him,
he said, “I tell you, I have not found such
great faith even in Israel.”

16. How big is your
faith?

17. Three Faith-
filled Facts

18. (1)
You cannot play
it safe and please
God.

19. Hebrews 11:6
6 And without faith it is impossible to
please God, because anyone who comes
to him must believe that he exists and that
he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

20. Evan Roberts

21. Zechariah 4:6
6 So he said to me, “This is the word of the
Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by
power, but by my Spirit,’ says the Lord
Almighty.

22. If you are not scared
every now and then –
you are not living by
faith.
If you are not failing,
you are living too safe.
Never let the fear of
failure talk you out of
an act of faith.

23. Jesus Walked on Waters

24. Matthew 14:31-33
31 Immediately Jesus reached out his
hand and caught him. “You of little faith,”
he said, “why did you doubt?” 32 And
when they climbed into the boat, the wind
died down. 33 Then those who were in the
boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are
the Son of God.”

25. (2)
As long as you have
a guarantee-you
don’t have faith.

26. Hebrews 11:1-2
Now faith is confidence in what we
hope for and assurance about what we
do not see.

27. You can have faith or
you can have control-
but you can’t have
both.

28. 22 Then Elijah said to them, “I am the only one of the
Lord’s prophets left, but Baal has four hundred and
fifty prophets. 23 Get two bulls for us. Let Baal’s
prophets choose one for themselves, and let them cut
it into pieces and put it on the wood but not set fire to
it. I will prepare the other bull and put it on the wood
but not set fire to it. 24 Then you call on the name of
your god, and I will call on the name of the Lord. The
god who answers by fire—he is God.”

29. 1 Kings 18:42-43
42 So Ahab went off to eat and drink, but
Elijah climbed to the top of Carmel, bent
down to the ground and put his face
between his knees. 43 “Go and look
toward the sea,” he told his servant. And
he went up and looked. “There is nothing
there,” he said. Seven times Elijah said,
“Go back.”

30. 43 “Go and look toward the sea,” he told his servant.
And he went up and looked. “There is nothing there,”
he said.
Seven times Elijah said, “Go back.”
44 The seventh time the servant reported, “A cloud as
small as a man’s hand is rising from the sea.”
1 Kings 18:43-44
Cloud with a size of a man’s hand

31. 1 Kings 18:44-45
44 The seventh time the servant reported,
“A cloud as small as a man’s hand is
rising from the sea.” So Elijah said, “Go
and tell Ahab, ‘Hitch up your chariot
and go down before the rain stops
you.’”
45 Meanwhile, the sky grew black with
clouds, the wind rose, a heavy rain
started falling and Ahab rode off to
Jezreel.

32. The longer you push in
for a breakthrough, the
more significant the
breakthrough comes
when it breaks lose.

33. Hebrews 6:12
We do not want you to become lazy, but
to imitate those who through faith and
patience inherit what has been
promised.
confidence in His nature
endurance in difficult situations

34. (3)
To step toward your
destiny, you have to step
away from your security.

35. Hebrews 11:8
8 By faith Abraham, when called to go to
a place he would later receive as his
inheritance, obeyed and went, even
though he did not know where he was
going.

36. Wedding at Cana

37. John 2:4-12
4 “Woman, why do you involve
me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not
yet come.” 5 His mother said to the
servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”
6 Nearby stood six stone water jars, the
kind used by the Jews for ceremonial
washing, each holding from twenty to
thirty gallons.
7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars
with water”; so they filled them to the
brim.8 Then he told them, “Now draw
some out and take it to the master of the
banquet.” They did so, 9 and the master
of the banquet tasted the water that had
been turned into wine. He did not realize
where it had come from, though the
servants who had drawn the water knew.
Then he called the bridegroom
aside 10 and said, “Everyone brings out
the choice wine first and then the
cheaper wine after the guests have had
too much to drink; but you have saved
the best till now.”
11 What Jesus did here in Cana of Galilee
was the first of the signs through which
he revealed his glory; and his disciples
believed in him.

38. Isaiah 54:1-5
“Sing, barren woman, you who never
bore a child; burst into song, shout for
joy, you who were never in labor;
because more are the children of the
desolate woman than of her who has a
husband,” says the Lord.
2 “Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch
your tent curtains wide, do not hold back;
lengthen your cords, strengthen your
stakes. 3 For you will spread out to the
right and to the left; your descendants will
dispossess nations and settle in their
desolate cities.
4 “Do not be afraid; you will not be put to
shame. Do not fear disgrace; you will not
be humiliated. You will forget the shame of
your youth and remember no more the
reproach of your widowhood.
5 For your Maker is your husband— the
Lord Almighty is his name— the Holy One
of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the
God of all the earth.

39. Jeremiah 32:27
"I am the LORD, the God of all mankind.
Is anything too hard for me?

40. We are faith-filled,
big-thinking because we
have a great God.
God didn’t give us a
small commission but a
great one.
God doesn’t want a few
to come to repentance –
but all.
If you think the church is
too big – your love for
God’s people is too small.
Trust in God leads you to pray,
which fuels your faith, that
unlocks the door of revival so
that miracles will overflow
thereby stirs gratefulness that
makes us generous.
