PRAYING FOR FAMILY, FRIENDS AND NATION:
May your faith bear God’s witness/approval (Heb 11:2). #FaithLife #FaithApprovedByGod
MORNING WATCH NOTES:
Faith is rooted in past example and personal experience. Saints who lived “by faith“ in the past are role models for us. God put his stamp of approval on them: saints like Moses (Deu 34:10), Job (Job 1:1,8) and Noah (Gen 6:8,9) before Christ; John the Baptist following Christ (Mat 11:11). Their “faith“ gained for them divine approval. “Faith“ made them pleasing to God.
These saints had borne the divine witness of God. God was saying, as he points to them, “This is the way, walk ye in it (Isa 30:21). There are contemporary men and women in my life whose faith has borne the witness of God (some younger, some older). They inspire me, challenge me. I want to be like them. That is what the writer is saying to these Hebrew believers of his day. Lord, may my faith be worthy of your approval.

We really need reminders of faith as we journey along we are conflicted and even if we are not comfortable for a while we have something to ponder
