TRUSTING GOD
In its most
mature phase, faith becomes an experiential confidence that Jehovah-Jireh will surely
provide for the unknown needs of tomorrow.
After all, He has already proven Himself (repeatedly) in the affairs of
yesterday and today. So never doubt or
debate whether or not He will show up on time.
According to Thomas Carlyle, “a man lives by believing something, not by
debating and arguing about many things.”
So we must evict tenuous and wavering behaviors.
Focus. Pray. Believe.
Receive. FAITH it into existence!
According to the teachings of Jesus Christ,
“all things, whatsoever you shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive.”
(Matthew 21:22) Indeed, your “faith is
the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews
11:1)
Remember
this: The sovereign God typically works in mysterious and unanticipated ways –
often totally opposite to our human expectations, limitations, or dreams. According to Brett Blair, faith understands
that God always intervenes in the natural course of events. And even if the natural course of
events should appear to answer our prayers--that which we call a
coincidence--faith still believes that the omnipotent God is entirely and
powerfully present.
I dare
to trust in ALMIGHTY GOD…as do you.
Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and
please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING.
Maranatha!
