Take Him At His Word!

We're supposed to believe the Word simply because God said so! The Lord wants us to have faith in His Word & not always have to have a sign. The Word is all the sign we need!

Why does God insist we have to believe in something we cannot see & cannot feel, purely by faith in His Word, trusting Him just like a little child has to trust a parent? It's because the Lord loves faith! He loves us because we believe Him, just because He said so! It's a way of showing our love & our confidence in Him. Faith really shows that we have love.--"But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him." (Heb.11:6)

It's just like a child has to trust a parent even though he doesn't always understand why he must do or must not do this or that. He just has to "do it because Daddy says so!" It's a form of love that the child trusts his parents & has confidence in them & takes their word for it.--And that's the way we have to do with the Lord. We should just say to Him, "Yes, Sir!"--And believe it & do it simply because He said so! Trust Him! Take Him at His Word!
