Greetings Saints,
Has been some time since I was able to write you. Please know that I am always thinking of you and praying for you.
I want to start a series on the Art of Believing. I have been teaching on this every Sunday morning for over a
year now. It is the kind of message that once you get started you just cannot seem to get to the end of it!
We will take a look at each of the scriptures in the King James version that contain the word believe and then
discuss it. Your emails and comments are always welcomed. I love to hear from you.
The first time Believe is found in the Bible is in Genesis 15.6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it
to him for right-eousness.
This actually lays the foundation for the rest of the time.
To believe the Lord is right. God counts it as right, so it is right! Who would argue with God?
Everyday we have opportunity to do just that. We can believe either the promise of God or the situation. We must
choose. No matter how reasonable the situation appears, it is right to choose God.
Yes, even when it goes against all reasoning and natural evidences, it is always right to believe God.
This is a foundational truth. If ever you can be persuaded to believe any reasonable doubt, you are then wrong.
God counts believing Him as right and there is no exception.
You and I face this daily. In our bodies, in our finances, in our relationships, in our decisions, we either
choose the promise, believing it unreservedly, or we go with the situation.
The world may say I am right for going their way. My relatives may say I am right for the seemingly safe way.
My friends may say I am right because of what they say, but it is God that I answer to. I choose to believe Him
in spite of the appearance of anything else.
Now Abraham had two choices here, he could believe the promise of God or he could believe his aged body. His
body said impossible. It appeared right to all our senses and to the world.
He chose the promise of God, and he was right! Right with God and God made him right to everyone else in the end!
The reason? God is always right, so believe Him and it will turn out right! Hallelujah!
What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? Rom 8.31
SEE YOU IN CHURCH!
