Faith isn’t convincing yourself God’s Word is true. It is being persuaded in your heart that God is good. Faith is a response to knowing and trusting in God. Faith isn’t a performance we do to seek God’s approval or earn His favor and blessings. Biblical faith is a response to knowing God’s character.
