Are you trying out God, or
are you SOLD OUT TO GOD?
The difference is faith
instead of hope so.
No unbelief or distrust made him waver (doubtingly
question) concerning the promise of God, but he
grew strong and was empowered by faith as he gave
praise and glory to God, fully satisfied and assured that
God was able and mighty to keep His word
and to do what He had promised.
ROMANS 4:20, 21
IF YOU HAVE not surrendered your heart completely to God your faith
will not stand up to what life brings your way.You can't try God
out to see whether you like Him in your life or not. Faith, to be
real, must totally rely or lean on God. Abraham had God's promise
that he would bear a son but his physical disabilities made it seem
impossible.Yet, "He did not weaken in faith when he considered the
[utter] impotence of his own body, which was as good as dead
because he was about a hundred years old, or [when he considered]
the barrenness of Sarah's [deadened] womb" (Romans 4:19). He looked
through the difficulty and believed that the word from God was
greater. Join Abraham and know that because you believe your faith
is reckoned to you as righteousness, a right standing with
God!
