I am no preacher, but, I am a sinner and living in this world in HIS mercy. For a sinner like me too, God gave me the following words from the Book of Life (The Holy Bible-KJV).

Tried Faith

Abraham – Hebrews 11:verses 17-19

17. By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac:
and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,

18. Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:

19. Accounting that God was able to raise him up,
even from the dead;
from whence also he received him in a figure.

Revelation Faith

Isaac – Hebrews 11: verse 20

20. By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau
concerning things to come.

Prophetic Faith

Jacob – Hebrews 11: verse 21

21. By faith Jacob, when he was a dying,
blessed both the sons of Joseph;
and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.

Authoritative Faith

 Joseph – Hebrews 11: verse 22

 22. By faith Joseph, when he died,
made mention of the departing of the children of Israel;
and gave commandment concerning his bones.

Fearless Faith

 Amram and Jochebed, parents of Moses
– Hebrews 11: verse 23

 23. By faith Moses, when he was born,
was hid three months of his parents,
because they saw he was a proper child;
and they were not afraid of the king’s commandment.

Persevering Faith

Moses – Hebrews 11: verses 24-28

24. By faith Moses, when he was come to years,
refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter;
25. Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God,
than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
26. Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches
than the treasures in Egypt:
for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
27. By faith he forsook Egypt,
not fearing the wrath of the king:
for he endured,
as seeing him who is invisible.
28. Through faith he kept the passover,
and the sprinkling of blood,
lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.

Enduring Faith

Israel – Hebrews 11: verse 29

By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land:
which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned.

Conquering Faith

Joshua – Hebrews 11: 30

By faith the walls of Jericho fell down,
after they were compassed about seven days.

Just shall live by faith

Habakkuk 2:4;

Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him:
but the just shall live by his faith.

 Romans : 1:17;

For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith:
as it is written,
The just shall live by faith.

 Galatians : 3:11;

But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for,
The just shall live by faith.

Hebrews : 10:38;

Now the just shall live by faith:
but if any man draw back,
my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

Hebrews 11:7  By faith Noah,
being warned of God of things not seen as yet,
moved with fear,
prepared an ark to the saving of his house;
by the which he condemned the world,
and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
