This lesson from Anthony Walker focuses on the foundation of faith and how our beliefs impact every area of our lives. The speaker emphasizes that true faith is not just a feeling, but a belief and trust in God and His word. He unpacks how faith in God’s creation, love, and power to overcome all things should shape our perspective and give us unshakable hope, even in the midst of life’s difficulties. The key points include:
- Loving God means obeying His commands, which can be difficult for our flesh but are not burdensome for our spirit (1 John 5:1-3).
- Our faith gives us victory over the world, because Jesus has already overcome the world (1 John 5:4-5).
- Believing God’s word, like the account of creation in Genesis 1:1, shapes how we see ourselves, our purpose, and our ability to overcome.
- Trusting in God’s love and the sacrifice of Jesus (John 3:16) gives us confidence that nothing can separate us from His love.
- With faith the size of a mustard seed, we can move mountains, because nothing is impossible for God (Matthew 17:20).
Anthony Walker encourages building our lives on the unshakable foundation of faith in God and His word.
