    do god need faith for anything

    No, Donnie,

    God does not need to have faith or trust in anyone. He is faithful always and can be trusted thoroughly by us, His children. God is in need of no thing. In Himself He possesses all that is needed for His existence, happiness, satisfaction, state of blessedness.

    I do wonder though, did the human nature of Jesus need to have faith in the Father or in His divine nature?

    My thoughts on this is that as both God and Man, Jesus would not need to believe in His divine nature because the human nature and divine natures were in perfect union with each other, but were not mixed.

    But the human nature of Jesus may have needed to have a human relationship with the Father. This seems to be evident in that He prayed to the Father, He said "Not My will but Yours (the Father) be done." in the Garden of Gethsemane. These are uniquely human things to do.

    AS far as the interactions within the Godhead towards each other, we do not know how they related to one another in areas of agreement as we know that they are always in total agreement with one another. They always works cooperatively to accomplish the will of God. But most of this is still a mystery to us as it has not been fully revealed to us in Scripture. Perhaps when we enter the eternal state we will learn more about this.

    No GOD does not need faith for HIS word Is Faith as its written. Romans 10:17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

    Remember all the words of God is pure and there's no unrighteousness with HIM.

    Amen

    Remember

    acts 20;21

    Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
