What does it mean to walk by faith

Paul said about himself and other faithful Christians: “We are walking by faith, not by sight.” (2 Cor. 5:7) What did Paul mean? In the Bible, “walking” sometimes refers to the way a person chooses to live his life. When a person walks just by sight, he makes decisions based solely on what he can see, hear, and feel with his physical senses. On the other hand, when a person walks by faith, he makes decisions based on his trust in Jehovah God. His actions show that he is convinced that God will reward him, that he will benefit from following Jehovah’s advice found in His Word.​—

To "walk by faith" means to live life guided by trust in God rather than just relying on what we can see or feel. It involves making decisions based on belief in God's promises and wisdom, rather than solely on physical evidence. This approach reflects a deep confidence that following God's guidance will lead to positive outcomes.
