Hebrews 11:1 says: “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”

Many people write things about faith, sing songs about faith, and even bible also mention many things about faith. Many people in our church are often write something about faith on their Facebook, MSN Messenger, Skype, etc. However, many people still think that faith is acting like something is so when it really isn’t so, and if we do that long enough, then it will become so. But that’s not it at all. Faith is real. God’s Word daily. Speak and confess them aloud to yourself. Then act out whatever the Word says. God moves when you move—in a faith that is active.

This is saying that faith is real. It is the evidence of things not seen. Notice it didn’t say “things that don’t exist.” They do exist. They just aren’t
seen. Now, do you want to experience that faith? Before that, you should know that faith without deeds is nothing. In bible, James 2:14-26 explains this by emphasizing on:

James 2:20, “But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?”

I believe you will see that faith really works. However, you must do your work diligently with pure heart and fully rely on God. I believe that God is a faithful God. He never abandons us.
