Why is faith so important? Some leaders of the Christian life say that faith is the foundation of our beliefs and life.
It is the foundation of Christian walk. Without faith we cannot be healed, we cannot persevere through trying times, we cannot share the goodness of God, we cannot walk in God’s way, we cannot be saved, we cannot have our prayers answered, we cannot be protected, we cannot follow Jesus, and quite simply, we cannot enter the Kingdom of God.

Hebrews 11 is considered the Hall of Faith because it lists many who lived by faith and saw God’s promises come true. We need faith to stand up for what we truly believe in or we will be swayed like a leaf in the wind. Jesus is our Rock and if we stand on Him, we will have the kind of faith that can move mountains. But if we lack faith, we will falter and may even be lead astray from the Lord.
