Whatever happened to believing God, just because He is, just because He says so, just because He does what He says, just because HE IS GOD! Are we missing the blessing of God because we doubt, because we acquiesce, because we will not move unless we can see? If faith is based on something we cannot see, can't we move just on His Word? If we know the promises of God, not just that He can, but that He will, can't we just move on His Word? If the only way we can please God is by faith and He is constantly testing our faith, shouldn't we just diligently seek Him and move based on His Word? Shouldn't we just believe that He is and that He will reward those that go after Him? Are you receiving the blessing God has for you?
What is the basis of such strong belief? Simply believing God and His faithfulness!
God is faithful to keep His covenant, His agreement.
God's faithfulness surrounds us, He is perfect, He will never fail you.
God is not man and He will not lie, if He said it, He will do it.
God will not allow you to be in a situation you can't handle, but provides a way of escape so you can bear it.
God will complete the work He began in you.
God has strengthened you and will protect you.
God has forgiven those who believe Him from the power, penalty and guilt of sin.
God is always a refuge and strength and will hide you in His shelter if you abide in Him.
God will keep you in perfect peace if you focus on Him.
God has always done and will continue to do everything He has said He will do.
God never changes so His faithfulness is forever.
You can trust Him because He is faithful.
When you trust God, you will be like a tree planted by the rivers of water.
When you trust God, you will not fear.
When you trust God, His grace WILL be sufficient.
When you trust God, your prayers are full of thankfulness and not a rehearsal of woes.
When you trust God, you may be in trouble, but your heart is not troubled.
When you trust God, life is not like Russian roulette, He promises abundance today!
Just as Noah built an ark when God said build - you build.
Just as Abraham believed God could call into being things that did not exist - believe God.
Just as Joseph believed God in the pit and the prison and was elevated to the palace - believe God.
Just as Deborah moved into battle with Barak when God said this is the Day - you move.
Just as Jehosophat did not know what to do but kept his eyes on God-let God fight your battles.
Just as Paul believed He would finish His course with joy - finish your course.
Just as Job believed that even though God was slaying him, he could still trust Him - you trust Him.
Just as Joshua believed that the wall would fall - you begin to march around the obstacles.
Just as Caleb believed they were well able to overcome, live like you are overcoming.
Just as 3 teenage boys believed God could deliver them, you move toward the fire.
Just as Moses endured as seeing Him who is unseen - you endure, believing God can.
Believing God, trusting God leaves no doubts, but brings hope, peace, confidence and increased faith. Notwithstanding your situation today, believe God in the good times, the bad times and the ugly times. He is faithful, you can trust Him, without seeing the solution, SEE GOD, receive your blessing!
Grace and peace,
