What does the Bible say about the spirit of faith?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible distinguishes between faith and the spirit of faith, with the latter being faith in active exercise.

In 2 Corinthians 4:13, we see that the spirit of faith is described as faith in exercise, akin to a gentle breeze stirring the air. While faith can sometimes appear dormant, the spirit of faith awakens it to active operation through the influence of the Holy Spirit. This transformation is crucial because it reflects the believer's ongoing relationship with God, where faith is not just an intellectual assent but a dynamic and living trust in Him.
