Faith is believing in God for what we do not see at the present. Faith is receiving from God for what we do not have a present. Let us live by faith and we will receive more promises and blessings from God.
(Hebrews 11:1 "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see").
I recently read a book called "Faith" by Phil Pringle and he made some statements that really touched me. He said, "Faith is when we cannot see it with our natural eyes, but believe in our hearts. If we are able to see what is in front of us, it is not longer faith". God told Abraham that he would become the father of many nations even though both he and Sarah were beyond childbearing age. Abraham believed God’s promises even when it seemed impossible in the natural sphere.
18 Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, “So shall your offspring be.”[a] 19 Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead—since he was about a hundred years old—and that Sarah’s womb was also dead. 20 Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, 21 being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. Romans 4:18-21
I remember many years ago, that I received a prophecy about travelling around the world and sharing God's love. At first, questions were spinning around my head, "how it is possible for me to travel around the world?" "How can I afford to fly around the world" and "How to build contact with people and churches around the world?" I was looking at God's vision for my life through my natural eyes rather than through the eyes of faith. Over the years, God slowly made His vision for my life a reality by opening many doors for me to travel within Australia and overseas. I can only look back in awe toward God and His power to make the impossible things into possible in my life. I want to encourage all of us to live by faith in the Words of God.

God wants us to believe and receive first in the spiritual realm before we can obtain His provisions and blessings in the natural realm.
