What does it mean to walk by faith according to Scripture?

Answered in 1 source

Walking by faith means trusting in God's promises and His word, even when circumstances seem challenging.

Walking by faith, as taught in Scripture, involves a complete trust in God’s character and His promises. In John 4:49-50, the nobleman exemplifies this when he initially seeks Jesus for a miracle but, after being commanded to go, believes His words without visual confirmation of the outcome. This act of faith indicates reliance on God’s word rather than solely on personal experience or visible evidence. The New Testament writers frequently affirm that faith requires believing in what we cannot see, which is exemplified by the nobleman’s response to Jesus. True faith rests not on physical manifestations or just signs, but on the unshakeable truth of God’s promises, leading believers to peace and hope amidst life's trials.
