How do we know that Jonathan had faith in God?

Answered in 1 source

Jonathan demonstrated faith by believing that God would deliver the Philistines into their hands even before the battle began.

Jonathan's faith is evident in his declaration to his armor bearer that 'the Lord hath delivered them into our hand,' prior to engaging in combat. This statement reflects his confidence in God’s promises and power, as he instructs his companion on how to discern God’s will based on the Philistines' response. Jonathan’s faith is not just a belief; it is an assurance grounded in the knowledge of who God is. He reflects the biblical truth that the faithful are empowered to take action, embodying the conviction that God empowers those who trust Him to achieve great things for His glory.
