Heb. 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. There is a dullness, and emptiness, or even a cluelessness among the lost.

Heb.11:9,10 – By faith he dwelt in the land of promise as in a foreign country, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise; for he waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God. This verse describes the tension or the unseen elephant …
Heb.11:34 – “Out weakness were made strong.” This is a great description of God’s glory being displayed in weak human vessels.

Heb. 11:3 ¶ By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.

By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. Heb.11:9 To someone who has never experienced the supernatural, faith is irrelevant, in other words it has nothing to do …
By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured as seeing Him who is invisible (Hebrews 11:23-25;27 NKJV).

Heb. 11:5 ¶ By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, “and was not found, because God had taken him”; for before he was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God. Enoch walked with God. We don’t know much more than that about Enoch; that pretty much says …
