Believe God

Lady of Light

In Romans Chapter 4:3, it says:

"For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God and it was counted unto him as righteousness."

Abraham had no reason to think in the natural that God would give him a child in his old age and he waited a long time for the promise to be fulfilled. His wife, Sarah
tried to "fix" the situation in the natural by having him impregnate their maid.
It's difficult to believe everything God says, and to wait on him to perform his miracles and work things out his own way. Later, Abraham obeyed God and went to sacrifice his son, Isaac, and trusted God, who sent an angel to provide tell him not to sacrifice his son, and God provided a ram.

God has given us so very many promises in his word. How often do we try to do things our own way or try to "hurry God up" instead of trusting, believing and waiting on him? If we fully believed everything God says, most of us would live differently, and we would always be joyful. There would be no depression, discouragement or loss.

Let's try to meditate on God's promises and believe them for our lives so that we can live more fully.

God Bless You!
