The word translated 'faith' in Hebrew
is "emunah".
Emunah - acting with firmness toward God's will.
Emuna 'Faith,' is best learned and applied when we don't have what we need, or see any way out of the circumstances we are in. It is most profitable to us when we don't have the things we need, and then is used to appropriate the things we need. It is based on God's promises.
We don't need emunah faith when we already have everything we need or when everything is ducky, do we?
"Trusting is being confident of what we hope for, convinced about things we do not see." Hebrews 11:1

Recentlym a man who went to our
men's retreat in the mountains of Montana came home to find out his
wife had left him. An opportune time to hold on to your faith and not
throw it out the window; wouldn't you say . . .
It's times like these that faith comes in most handy, aint it?
What do we normally do with our faith when the poop hits the fan . . .
. . . Hold on to it and act accordingly or throw it away? What should we do?

first. Usually, you have to do that by faith that there is water
somewhere under the ground ya haven't seen YET.
What do ya do when you dont 'see' the promises of God happening around you?
Well, ya just keep diggin!
The righteous live by faith and NOT by sight!
