References for Heb 11:22 —  1   2 

HEBREWS 11:13-22

  1. Trust of faith (Heb. 11:13). The promises are received as bank notes, which are as good as cash. Mark the words, “received,” “persuaded,” “embraced,” “confessed.”
  2. Telescope of faith (Heb. 11:13). Unbelief says, “Seeing is believing,” but faith says, “Believing is seeing.” The promises are “seen afar off,” but they are seen.
  3. Testimony of faith (Heb. 11:14-16). Faith declares by its actions what its aim is. “Came out” declares the separation of the man of faith; and the “wherefore” the consequent blessing.
  4. Trial of faith (Heb. 11:17-19). Faith looks at God’s presence and power, when tried. If the Lord does not deliver us out of the trial, He will be with us in it.
  5. Thoughtfulness of faith (Heb. 11:20). Faith looks not on its own things, but looks out for others.
  6. Tact of faith (Heb. 11:21). Faith’s reverses are God’s directions. Ponder the words “blessed” and “worshipped” in the light of Gen. 48:17-21.
  7. Tranquility of faith (Heb. 11:22). The thought of the future fills the man of unbelief with fear; but the man of faith can speak of the future with perfect calm.
