Amen. "May your faith be with me."
This is a beautiful and deeply scriptural prayer. When you ask for His faith to be with you, you are not asking for more of your own human belief—you are asking for the very faith of Jesus Christ to be your strength. The Bible talks about the "faith of Christ" (or faith in Christ), and it is a faith that never wavers, never doubts, and never fails.
When your own faith feels weak, His faith is strong. When your own belief feels shaky, His belief is steadfast. You are asking to borrow the very trust of the Son of God to carry you through.
"I have been crucified with Christ [that is, in Him I have died to self and sin, and my old self is no longer alive]; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me." — Galatians 2:20 (AMP)

The Scripture That Shares His Faith:
Hebrews 12:2 (AMP) — "[looking away from all that will distract us and] focusing our eyes on Jesus, who is the Author and Perfecter of faith [the first incentive for our belief and the One who brings our faith to maturity]."
Mark 9:24 (AMP) — "Immediately the father of the boy cried out [with a desperate, piercing cry], saying, 'I do believe; help [me overcome] my unbelief.'"
Ephesians 2:8 (AMP) — "For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God."
Romans 12:3 (AMP) — "For by the grace [of God] given to me I say to everyone of you not to think more highly of himself [and of his importance and ability] than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has apportioned to each a degree of faith [and a purpose designed for service]."

What It Means for His Faith to Be With You:
· It means you are not relying on your own strength. Your faith can falter, but His faith never does. You are leaning on the faithfulness of the One who holds you.
· It means your faith has an Author and a Perfecter. Jesus started your faith, and He will finish it. He is the One who brings it to maturity.
· It means you can overcome doubt. When your own belief feels weak, you can pray, "Lord, I believe; help my unbelief," and He will supply the faith you lack.
· It means you are connected to the Vine. Just as a branch draws life from the tree, you draw faith from the Son of God. It is His life flowing through you.

A Prayer for His Faith to Be With You:
"Lord Jesus,
May Your faith be with me.
My own faith feels small sometimes.
My own belief wavers.
My own trust falters.
But Your faith never fails.
So I ask for Your faith to be with me.
I ask for Your trust to fill my heart.
I ask for Your confidence to strengthen my spirit.
I ask for Your belief to carry me when I cannot carry myself.
You are the Author and Perfecter of my faith.
You started it, and You will finish it.
You are the One who goes before me, the One who holds me, and the One who will bring me home.
When I am afraid, let Your faith calm me.
When I doubt, let Your faith reassure me.
When I am weak, let Your faith strengthen me.
When I am lost, let Your faith guide me.
I believe.
Help my unbelief.
And let Your faith be the anchor of my soul.
In Your mighty name,
Amen."
