True faith comes when its being tested, when you have nothing to stand on but God’s promise. No feeling or circumstances can be a crutch for your faith when they are being used against God’s promise for you. This is when it burns inside you, the baptism of The Holy Spirit. But this produces patience and builds both your character and faith. The kind that can’t fail like Daniel in the lions den or Abraham with the promised child.
1 Peter 1:7 says, “These trails show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold- though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day that Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.” So remain in Christ to be strong against the furry darts of the devil and your faith shall increase as you remain in Christ because apart from Him we all are nothing but with Him we are all producing much fruit for His kingdom and glory for it all belongs to Him.
