As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, calling out, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!” When (Jesus) had gone indoors, the blind men came to him, and he asked them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” “Yes, Lord,” they replied. Then he touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith let it be done to you”; and their sight was restored.
Matthew 9:27-30

WHAT KIND OF FAITH HONORS GOD?

1) FAITH THAT BELIEVES WHEN IT DOESN’T SEE.

Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see.
Hebrews 11:1

When (Jesus) had gone indoors, the blind men came to him, and he asked them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” “Yes, Lord,” they replied.
Matthew 9:28

The size of our request reveals the strength of our faith.

2) FAITH THAT PERSISTS WHEN NOTHING CHANGES

 Be persistent in prayer, and keep alert as you pray, giving thanks to God.
Colossians 4:2

3) FAITH THAT WORKS WHEN IT DOESN’T MAKE SENSE

You see that (Abraham’s) faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did.
James 2:22

I’d rather be blind with faith that God can heal…
Than see and have no faith!

It takes faith to step away from the familiar.
