What Is Faith? | The Prayer of Faith, Part 1

What does the Bible actually mean when it talks about faith? As we begin our new series The Prayer of Faith, this message lays the foundation for understanding effective, biblical prayer as we prepare for our upcoming Fervent Week of Prayer. Drawing from James 5 and Hebrews 11, this sermon challenges common misconceptions about faith and reframes it as confidence not for something—but trust in Someone. In this message, we explore: Why effective prayer is rooted in the prayer of faith What Hebrews really means when it says faith is “the assurance of things hoped for” Why biblical faith is confidence in the unseen God, not denial of reality How faith aligns itself with God’s will, not our demands Why true faith ultimately finds rest in God’s sovereignty, not outcomes This teaching calls us to move our focus away from results and back onto the nature, character, and will of God—where faith becomes effective, prayer becomes grounded, and peace becomes possible. As we step into a season of prayer together, this message invites us to rediscover faith that is centered on knowing God, trusting Him fully, and resting in His purposes.
