The faith defined biblically as the certainty of what is expected and the conviction of what is not seen. Hebrews 11 Reina-Valera 1960 (RVR1960)
In times when we need divine intervention, we often fail in faith. When the environment tells you that there are no possibilities of exit to the problem, to the tribulation, when you knock on doors looking for a solution or an alternative and none is opened, that is the moment where we put our faith to the test and what is in our hearts.
The first reaction is to stop praying, to stop believing in God's promises for us, just letting ourselves be carried away by what our eyes see, by what we hear others say, forgetting that for the followers of Jesus, those who have decided to believe God and do his will, things do not work that way, we do not need to "see to believe" but "to believe in order to see". What activates the miracle, what provokes a response from heaven, is our constant belief, calling things that are not as if they were.
The victory will always be those who remain firm without giving importance to what happens around.
When the teacher Jesus appeared to his disciples walking on the sea, he invited Peter to do so and go to him, Peter confident in Jesus dared to do it, his first steps were on the water because he fixed his gaze on Jesus , but then it sank because it defocused its gaze, fixed it in the environment and was afraid.
In that way it happens to us, we lose the focus that is Jesus.
If God has said that we are more than victors, it is because in every area of our life the victory is ours, and as the woman believed in blood flow, in the same way, we must believe and be provocative of the perfect time of God and with our faith to make happen what we are longing for, regardless of how dry and arid the desert looks, we must keep in mind that with us goes the one that makes water flow from the rock.
