"For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith". Romans 1:17 ESV
The Christian life is a life of faith and as Christians we know the value of faith. For example, we know what the Bible says concerning it. Hebrews 11:6 says “Without faith it is impossible to please God..."; Mark 11:22 says “Have faith in God”; Mark 9:23 says “All things are possible to him that believes.” and Hebrews 11:1 gives us the definition of Faith; “Faith gives substance to our hopes and makes us certain of realities we do not see.”
Most of us do not question the value of faith. It is the acquisition of faith that we struggle with. Have you ever longed to have more faith but didn’t know how to get it? Have you ever wanted to live by faith, like those we read about in Hebrews 11? Have you ever said to yourself, “I wish I had more faith because I know that I would be a better person.” Well, right in our text is the key to opening the door to a greater faith. It's from "Faith to Faith.”
Faith, is like muscle, it grows strong with exercise. From faith to faith means; from saving faith to a power-giving faith (fruitfulness); from faith as a foundation to faith that identifies us; from faith that is all about assurance to faith that tells us what we can become; from faith that deals with redemption to faith that deals with Truth. The faith of last year cannot sustain the faith for this year. The faith of yesterday cannot nourish today's faith neither can the faith of today validate the faith for tomorrow. Faith to Faith is activating the real you from one level of success to another; exercise your faith daily because the just shall live by faith.

Declare This: Dear Lord, I will exercise my faith on a daily basis and I ensure to grow it and move higher in Jesus name Amen.
