Hebrews 11:11 (NKJV) 11 By faith Sarah herself also received strength to conceive seed, and she bore a child when she was past the age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised.
Sarah believed what God told her about having a son, even after she was past child-bearing age. She judged Him faithful of His promise to her and Sarah received her promised child.
Genesis 21:3 (NKJV) 3 And Abraham called the name of his son who was born to him—whom Sarah bore to him—Isaac.
What is God promising us today?
Did He tell us or give us vision for something that is way beyond what we can do, or can even imagine to be done with our limited resources or our situation?
What is His promise to us? Do we judge Him faithful? Do we trust that He can and He will do it?
Some say, “well maybe. But I’m not quite sure yet if He will do that for me. I just need a little glimpse of something to reassure me.”
No. That’s not trust. Where there is doubt, we are without. That’s just my own phrase.
I have seen God show up too many times in my life to doubt Him. He has changed the way I think and look at things. I don’t let my eyes, and what I see in the natural, be the final word in what will happen. No.
2 Corinthians 5:7 (NKJV) 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.
God has a way of turning things around at any moment. He is amazing!
If we walk by sight, that is all we will see, exactly what is in front of us. That’s fine if that’s what we want.
But for me, I have always wanted to see what God will do in the moments that life says, “this is it for you, the end of the road.”
If we walk by faith, those little statements only cause us to rise up and get God’s word on the matter. We go after Him, seeking what it is that He has to say. If He says otherwise, we trust His word over anyone or anything else.
We judge Him faithful to keep and fulfill His promise, and we see the impossible happen right before our eyes.
Amen!
