Faith in God is like a treasure chest, and inside His heart are gifts of faith that He provides to all believers. Not gold, silver and jewelry, but more lasting things like salvation and the fruit of the spirit. Romans 11:29 says, “God’s gifts and his call can never be withdrawn.” Whether you know it or not, your faith in God provides you with these life-changing gifts. They are already in your possession.
Get ready! Let’s go treasure hunting and find 8 Gifts Faith Provides for You.
The Gift of Salvation
“God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God.” –Ephesians 2:8
The first among the gifts of faith that Jesus provides believers is the gift of salvation. Jesus gave His life, defeated sin and death, and rose victorious from the grave so you can be saved. Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance translates the word salvation as: “deliver, health, saving.” When you believe that Jesus is the Son of God and accept Him as your Savior and Lord, you are saved and delivered; and can have health in your spirit, soul and body. When the Philippian jailer asked Paul, “What must I do to be saved?” Paul answered, “Believe on [have faith in] the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household” (Acts 16:31, NKJV).
If you have not yet made that commitment to God, do it now! He wants you to be saved, and gave you a gift to make it possible. Come into His family and experience the love of God.
The Gift of a Christian Life
“The just shall live by faith.” –Romans 1:17 (NKJV)
The second gift faith provides for you is living the Christian life. The Christian life is different from your natural life. Jesus offers you the gift of an abundant life (John 10:10), full of the fruit of the spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). It’s a good life that will never end.
The Gift of Victory and Overcoming Power
“For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. –1 John 5:4 (NKJV)
The third gift faith provides includes victory and overcoming power. It’s one of the most important gifts of faith because we need victory and overcoming power in this life. There is a real enemy, and his name is Satan, the devil. He hates God and he wants to destroy God’s creation—that’s you!
Jesus promised that with His help, you can fight the good fight of faith…and win! You have the same gift of victory and overcoming power that Jesus had on earth. “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him” (Acts 10:38, NKJV). It may not happen overnight, but as you continue to live a life of faith in God, you will get the victory and overcome all the devil throws at you!

The Gift of Freedom From Sin
“For whatever is not from faith is sin.” –Romans 14:23
The fourth gift faith offers is freedom from sin. To be free from sin is a treasure that comes in two parts. First, you are forgiven from every sin. Jesus took your sin on Himself when He died on the cross. Second, you avoid (step away from) sin. Paul said you can renew your mind to think like God, talk like God and let your actions reflect God (Romans 12:2). That means you don’t have to give in to anything that leads you away from God. You don’t have to sin!
The Gift To Stand Firm
“We want to work together with you so you will be full of joy, for it is by your own faith that you stand firm.” –2 Corinthians 1:24
The fifth gift faith gives you is the ability to stand firm. You know the type of person who goes back and forth from one thing to another. Some people call them “wishy-washy.” James called them “double-minded” (James 1:8, NKJV).
Many people stray from God’s plan to help them, and revert to an indecisive lifestyle. That’s not you! You have the treasure to stand firm in believing God’s Word no matter what is going on around you.

The Gift To Quench the Arrows of the Enemy
“In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil.” –Ephesians 6:16
The sixth gift faith arms you with is the ability to quench all the sharp darts of the enemy. You have an enemy, and he doesn’t sit idly by while you grow in faith. He is actively trying to hurt you. He wants to steal, kill and destroy you and your faith in every way. One of your treasured possessions is your “shield of faith.” Maintain a defensive and offensive presence to counter every enemy attack. Your shield of faith protects you and pushes off his attacks.
The Gift of a Blessed Life!
“So then those who are of faith are blessed with believing Abraham.” –Galatians 3:9
The seventh gift faith provides is a blessed life. God blessed Abraham with everything he needed and more, and He wants to bless you. Years ago, Jeremiah the prophet wrote the words of the Lord: “‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ says the LORD. ‘They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope’” (Jeremiah 29:11). God has planned a blessed life for you! It’s a gift and a treasure for you and your family.
The Gift of Pleasing God
“And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.” –Hebrews 11:6
The eighth gift faith grants is the gift of pleasing God. You, a human being, can please the Creator of the universe, the great God Almighty, who knows everything and can do anything! How do you please Him? Believe God exists and He is a rewarder of those who sincerely seek Him. Take time today to seek Him and spend time with Him by reading His Word. God loves you and wants a close relationship with you (Psalm 25:14, AMPC).
