BIBLE VERSES ABOUT FAITH IN GOD
1. Ephesians 2:8-10
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith — and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God — not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

2. Hebrews 11:1-3
Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for. By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

3. Hebrews 10:22-23
… let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful.

4. Psalm 119:30
I have chosen the way of faithfulness; I have set my heart on your laws.

5. 2 Corinthians 5:7
For we walk by faith, not by sight.

Faith is our motivation
God welcomes us based on our faith, and our salvation is secure! But there’s more good news: God’s not done yet. A follow-on miracle occurs as God begins to change our hearts. Because of the joy of our own salvation, we begin sharing the love we’ve experienced with others, and the Bible has some guidance on faith-motivated love as well:

6. James 2:14-17
What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

7. James 1:2-4
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

8. 1 Thessalonians 1:3
We remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.

9. James 2:26
As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.

10. James 2:18
But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds.

11. Micah 6:8
He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God..

13. Galatians 5:5-6
For through the Spirit we eagerly await by faith the righteousness for which we hope. For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.

Faith is our strength
Our faith can motivate us to love more deeply and act more courageously than we could on our own. That faith-motivated love leads to some of the most beautiful earthly expressions of Christianity.

But that doesn’t mean it’s not hard work! In our advocacy work, we feel our strength tested when a bill to help protect children from violence is held up, laws to respect human dignity are ignored, or people aren’t motivated to take action. Our faith and strength feel insufficient for the task. But once again, the Bible offers guidance and encouragement when our faith feels small:

14. Hebrews 10:39
But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.

15. Mark 11:22-23
“Have faith in God,” Jesus answered. “Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them.

16. Philippians 4:13
I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

17. Mark 10:27
Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.”
