What does it mean to have faith in God?

The object of your faith reveals your heart, your earnest desire.  Faith alone is just a statement without substance.  You should want to trust in something or someone that is true and checks out with reality.

In the Christian faith, Jesus Christ is the object of a person’s faith. Jesus’ life teachings, miracles, death on the cross, resurrection and ascension into heaven are documented facts. They are truth. Therefore, when Jesus, the son of God, is the object of your faith you have the certainty that you can trust Him and believe all He said. Those who put their faith in their good works or other religions have false hope for eternal life because Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”( John 14:6)
