How does looking unto Christ impact a believer's faith?

Answered in 1 source

Looking unto Christ strengthens a believer's faith and assurance in their salvation, shifting focus away from their own abilities.

When believers look unto Christ, they shift their focus from their own weaknesses to His sufficiency. The act of looking unto Him fosters genuine faith since it is rooted in His finished work rather than in personal assurance or faithfulness. This perspective helps us understand that it is not our amount of faith that saves us but the object of our faith—Jesus Christ. Thus, believers are encouraged to rest in the knowledge that Christ's sacrifice is sufficient, bringing peace and assurance of their salvation.
