Faith Is Not Blind

Hebrews 11:11

Even though it was impossible what He had promised, Sarah knew He Who had promised was faithful. This was the key to her faith. It was not based on the situation, it was not even based on the promise; it was based on her knowledge of Him.

We must have the knowledge of God. We must know Him and know His faithfulness, or we will have what we call faith, but it is blind, and faith is not blind. Somehow, the enemy has gotten this lie into the church of "blind faith," "stepping out on nothing." Faith is in fact the opposite of this! Faith is seeing! Faith is knowing! Faith is evidence (Hebrews 11:1)! Faith is substance! You can't live years and years on this "blind faith." This is not how Abraham died not having received the promises but seeing them afar off embraced them (Hebrews 11:13). Faith is using eyes that can actually see.
