In this powerful episode, we dive deep into a truth that is often overlooked in modern Christianity — faith as the first and non-negotiable requirement to walk with God.
Drawing from Hebrews 11:6, we explore why faith is not just a virtue, but the very foundation upon which all spiritual life is built. Before love, before holiness, before service — faith comes first. Without it, the journey cannot begin.
You’ll discover:
🚩 Why faith is the gateway to God, not just the fuel for miracles
🚩 How faith precedes love, obedience, and even prayer
🚩 Why God motivates with benefits and promises, not just commands
🚩 How Jesus Himself used hope and vision to inspire obedience
We also trace a powerful theme through Exodus 19, Deuteronomy 28, and the words of Jesus in Matthew 6 and John 14— showing how God calls us to obedience by casting vision, not through fear or pressure.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in dry religion or weary of routine Christianity, this message will refresh your understanding, ignite your faith, and restore your hunger for reward-driven pursuit of God.
Key Scriptures:
Hebrews 11:6 · Romans 14:23 · Luke 12:32 · Deuteronomy 28 · John 14:1–3 · Matthew 6:25–33
Listen, be edified, and share with someone whose faith needs to rise again.
