TOPIC: Faith That Sees A Better Future (DCLM Daily Manna 22 July 2025)
KEY VERSE: “By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went” (Hebrews 11:8).
TEXT: Hebrews 11: 7-16 (KJV)
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.
8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.
9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
11 Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.
12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.
13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
14 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.
15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.
16 But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.
DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:
On the website of Preaching Today, we find the fascinating story of Admiral William H. McRaven, a former Navy SEAL officer in the U.S. Army. He said, “Hope is the most powerful force in the universe. With hope, you can inspire nations to greatness. With hope, you can raise up the downtrodden. With hope, you can ease the pain of unbearable loss. Sometimes, all it takes is one person to make a difference. We will all find ourselves neck-deep in mud someday. That is the time to sing loudly, smile broadly, lift up those around you, and give them hope that tomorrow will be a better day.”

The heroes of faith have one thing in common. That is the rare capacity to see the tangible objects of their faith, though they are yet hidden in the womb of time. From our text, Noah received God’s warning of an impending flood and was commanded to build an ark to salvage those who would believe. Prompted by the reverential fear of God, he ventured to do what no other had ever done in known history. His faith put him on the pedestal of righteousness, towering above the sinful world that was later condemned because of their unbelief. Abraham obeyed God’s call to relocate to a land that would be his future inheritance and that of his progeny. Years wore on, but he dwelled in the strange land with Isaac and Jacob, believing with unadulterated persuasion that God could also perform what He’ had promised. Sarah, too, had passed the age of childbearing but by faith “received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age.”
Delay in the fulfilment of the divine promise could not sink the patience of any of these faith-worthies. They saw the objects of God’s promises afar off, and no delay could dampen their enthusiastic expectation. Indeed, they saw themselves as pilgrims on a nobler journey in quest of a heavenly city prepared for the faithful.
Beloved, your confidence in God’s promises has great reward. Keep on trusting in His promises. Run your faith engine on the unalloyed fuel of patience, and He will not fail you.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Patience is the power that runs the engine of enduring faith.
