*BELIEVE HIM*
*Read Genesis 6:11-22*
*MEMORISE*
*God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good? (Numbers 23:19)*
*EXPOSITION
To believe is to take someone for his word. It is trusting without reservation. It means we have to confidently depend on Him who neither can fail nor disappoint.
Noah believed what God said about his world. He built the ark as directed. His singular act saved the generation of men. He only needed to trust God for it to happen. Gideon received the promise of victory against the Midianites. It happened according to God’s words (Jdg. 6:16; 8:28). He promised Hannah a son in Shiloh, and it was done to her (I Sam. 1:17, 27).
God’s promises to David were done to him. David believed God and all he said; they all came to pass (Psa. 89:19-21). Why? God has the power to do (cf. Rom. 4:21). God’s promise was fulfilled to Paul (Acts 27:22-25).
God promised to bless our works (cf. Psa. 37:5; Pro. 16:3). He kept His promise to bless Isaac. He asked Isaac not to leave Gerar, despite the hostility there. Isaac believed and obeyed, and got bountiful harvest (Gen. 26:13). He cannot fail on His promise.
Trusting and believing God may be tasking, yet you can achieve it. Is there anything committed to you? All you need is to believe and trust His ability to deliver on His promises. If He did it for great men of old, He will surely do it for you. All you need is right attitude towards the assignment, seeing the possibility of God in it. Take God for His words. He can never lie (Num. 23:19).
*PRAYER POINTS*
1. Help me to put absolute trust in You in all situations of life, O Lord.
2. O Lord, I trust You that You can never lie. I therefore eagerly, without doubt, expect the fulfillment of all Your promises for me.
3. Open our eyes to see in Your Word, and believe all the promises You have made available to us.
