Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all the seed, not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all - Romans 4:16

Faith is a law. The kingdom of God functions by laws. A law is basically a principle with a predictable outcome. God's kingdom is highly regulated, it functions on laws. God doesn't have moods, He has laws and He is bound by His own laws. The law of faith has no sentiment for anything or anyone. It also does not function by default but by design because it is optional. For the law of faith to be appropriates, it must be actively engaged. For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith (I John 5:4). We are told in the scripture in Romans 3:27; Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? No, but by the law of faith.

Faith must be developed and it takes time (For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.” - Romans 1:17). The faith way is not an emergency exit; it is a way of life for us as believers. A believer is not meant to function out of the circle of faith.

Faith must be voiced (And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak - II Corinthians 4:13). Whatever is unspoken cannot be heard (So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God - Romans 10:17). You have more faith in what you say than in what anyone else says therefore you are the first prophet over your life. Whatever you're calling is coming. Whatever you're speaking forth is springing forth.

It is what you've stored on the inside that you voice out when pressure comes. Even God had to speak what He desired in the beginning. God's way conceived in a heart and then spoken by the mouth, releases the abilities of God in to your situation. Faith is a requirement for a relationship with God. Faith makes it such that the result of your future is not as a consequence of your past but as a consequence of Jesus's death on the cross.

The operation of faith in your life will prove the reality of heaven (Hebrews 11:6 - But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him). Faith is the power over the world (1 John 5:4-5 NLT). Your faith determines what you become and how far you'll go. The bible says the just shall live by his faith. Faith doesn't struggle with issues, it creates solution.
