Operating in the God-kind of Faith
()
About this ebook
The Bible says: “faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” It takes hearing, reading and listening to God’s Word with the intent to hear and do, to move a person from a place of ignorance to a place of growing faith.
Operating in the God-kind of Faith will increase your understanding of faith and help you grow in Christ. In this book, Sebastian Weaver takes the reader into a basic understanding of faith and its importance in the life of the Believer.
Within its pages, you will find enlightenment on: faith's importance in the life of the Believer and the importance of its study; how we should exercise faith in God's love and plan for us; why we should take a stand of faith over fear; and the role our faith-words play in our daily lives.

Dedication
I dedicate this book to my wife, Jill, who allowed me the time necessary to focus on this project and has participated in helping bring it to completion. From the initial conception, to the long hours of structuring, writing and editing, she has been there as a counselor, confidant and cheerleader.
Throughout the many years of our marriage, I could always count on her to be the better part
of me. She has always encouraged me to follow the leadings
of the Lord, even when other people thought I was losing it. Therefore, I am grateful and thankful for the gift she is to me and love her so much.
Introduction
The Importance of Faith
"But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." —Hebrews 11:6
Faith for a Christian is a firm persuasion, conviction, or trust in another. This definition when added to the above scripture is the very foundation from which I preach and teach others to practice faith and trust in the Lord. Faith and trust can be used interchangeably. I believe that our faith or trust in God and Jesus should not stop with praying the Sinner’s Prayer. Our faith in God is why we are called Believers.
The Christian Believer is: One who gives credit to the truth of the Scriptures, as a revelation from God. A Christian—in a more restricted sense—is one who receives Christ as his Savior and accepts the way of salvation revealed in the gospel
(Webster’s Dictionary—1828). In other words, this believing is a person’s expression of their faith in God and His Word, to receive Christ into his or her heart as their personal Savior; with the desire to live a life committed to the truth of God’s Holy Word.
Faith, and the need for it, should be Christianity 101 for every Believer. Anyone who dares to say they are a devoted follower
