Bible Verses for Faith & Trust
King James Version (KJV)
Faith is "the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1). Living by faith means trusting God even in the uncertainty — when the way forward is unclear, when prayers seem unanswered, and when circumstances look hopeless.
These Bible verses on faith will strengthen your trust in God's character, His promises, and His timing. They speak to both the moments of great faith and the honest struggles with doubt — because the Bible has room for both.
