A faith promise involves waiting before the Lord for His instructions as to what He wants you to give in reaching the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. A faith promise is just that- given on faith that God will supply for other things which arise as you proceed in giving what you promised Him. (II Cor. 9:7-8) The Faith Promise is scriptural. The apostle Paul practiced it. He would ask the churches to promise a certain amount and gave them an allotted time, then picked up their gifts and used them in the establishing of churches and winning the lost for Christ. It is never aimed to glorify individuals or organizations, but only Jesus Christ. Its sole purpose is to support the work of world evangelism which is commanded by our Lord (Mark 16:15). It’s designed to bring us into a closer and completely dependent attitude upon God and a deeper fellowship with Him, an act of absolute faith. (2 Cor 8:4-5 and 9:7)
