Do You Believe?

Day 1- GOD CAN MOVE MOUNTAINS

We have barely touched the surface on how to defend your faith. Next month you will be asked to use what you know, what you have learned, and further search God’s Word to make your defense. It will stretch you and grow your faith as you prepare to share with others. It is important to really know what you believe. This week you are going to take the time to plant your feet in your belief. Remember, God will be adding to your knowledge as you grow so be okay to “start where you are” and with what He has shown you.
Read Matthew 17:20
God says if you have faith of a tiny mustard seed, He can move mountains in you.
Do you believe this to be true? Have you see God do this?
Do you believe God can do the impossible?

Day 2- FACING GIANTS

More than likely you will get to have a personal relationship with people who don’t know the Lord. The defense of your faith will be more conversations over time as you live life out in front of people who don’t know the Lord. You might face what seems to be a giant. Be reminded of how God used David to face a giant in opposition to God. God can use you to break up someone’s hardened heart in the most unlikely way.
Read 1 Samuel 17
What do you learn about David’s faith?
Did David have faith in what God could do?

Day 3- DO YOU CARE?

Read John 13:34-35
What does this verse say?
How has God loved you?
Are you willing to make sacrifices for people? Do you care for people?
Do you truly desire people to know the Lord or do you desire to prove yourself to be right?
To make a defense for your faith, you must truly have a heart for those who are lost. Think and pray about this today.

Day 4- GOD’S HALL OF FAITH

God gives us a “Hall of Faith” in Hebrews 11. He tells what each person did “by faith” and what the results are for God’s Kingdom.
Read Hebrews 11. How can you be a part of God’s “Hall of Faith”?
Write some goals you have for your faith.

Day 5- HALL OF FAITH

Read Hebrews 11 again.
There are many people who took steps of faith that produced results in your life. Make God’s hall of faith for your life. List the people who God used to lead you to Him or grow you in Him. Write down what they did for you and how God used that in your life.
