faith value

is, therefore, faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen ... By faith we understand that the universe by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made of things not seen ... But without faith it is impossible please God, because it is necessary that cometh to God must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who seek Him.
Hebrews 11.1, 3, 6

The righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith, as it is written, The just shall live by faith. Romans 1.17

We are hard pressed on every side, yet not crushed; in trouble, but not desperate, persecuted but not abandoned, struck down, but not destroyed ... Therefore, do not lose heart, but though our outer man is decaying, yet the inward is renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory we fix our eyes not on what is seen but the unseen ...
2 Corinthians 4.8-9, 16-18

now thus saith the Lord, who created you, O Jacob, and formed thee , O Israel: Fear not, for I have redeemed thee, I named you, you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, not overwhelm you. When you walk through fire you shall not be burned, neither shall the flame scorch you. I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for your ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. Isaiah 43.1-3

Fear not, for I am with you be not dismayed, for I am your God I will strengthen you, yea, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand ... For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, and says: "Fear not, I help.
Isaiah 41.10, 13

a foretaste of heaven

And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And I said, 'Write, for these words are faithful and true. Apoc. 21: 5.

In the meeting this morning, listening to the testimonies that were given here, while the last hymn was sung, I forgot myself. My mind went to the other side, at the time when they hold a big meeting in the city of God around the great white throne, and the redeemed will sing hymns of triumph, victory and praise to God and the Lamb.

At that moment, that thought occurred to me a feeling so solemn and so sweet that touched my heart and I could not help the tears. Oh, how happy we will when we meet next to the throne, clad in white robes of the righteousness of Christ! No more grief or separation, but dwell in peace, happiness and glory for endless ages of eternity.

Which group of people will be happy!

Consider now that we have the same privileges here. When we consider the infinite sacrifice that our Savior did for us to become children of God and members of the royal family, when we think of that excitement, when we meditate on all these privileges will be ours and can be our every day, we can have the privileges they are entitled to the sons and daughters of God, how can anyone complain? How can someone mutter? How can these things be in our hearts? We should be more grateful people on earth.

Our happiness depends on our faith and our trust in God. And, when we think of hope and faith we have, which are projected to the world to come, when we meditate on the fact that endure for endless ages of eternity, I would like to know how we feel about the prayers that were presented tonight. . . I have the impression that the time has come when God will raise up men who undertake this task.

If there is anything I can do for this work, I will. There are many who are willing to give their money, but not to surrender themselves. Why are not more people willing to devote to this work?
