God will do for us what we believe Him for! Isn’t that an awesome thought? Hi, this is Dorette Schaal with your dailyeword. To keep moving forward, to keep expanding, and to keep increasing, it is important for us to mix faith with the promises of God. Let’s choose to believe God. We are believers! That’s who we are, and that is what we do. So be encouraged today.
Monday
None of us are batting 1,000 at our faith walk, but that certainly shouldn’t make us discouraged. It should encourage us to believe for more. We can all improve in the area of believing! All God wants is for somebody (you and me) to believe something (His Word)! We all know that we need to base our faith on scripture. It is important to have a solid foundation, and there is nothing more solid than the Bible! But believing alone isn’t even enough. To make our faith produce, we must believe it in our heart, and then do something! We can speak it out with our mouth! Faith speaks! If it is not speaking, it is not faith! We are to believe in our heart and then confess with our mouth. Just like cars drive, planes fly, and shovels dig, faith speaks. It is the corresponding action that goes along with faith.
Just like the car needs a key to start, to activate our faith, we need to get our engine going and shift into gear to move ahead in God. In other words, get our rear in gear! Let’s get out of park, out of reverse and neutral, and start moving toward God’s will for our lives. It isn’t that we need an army tank to move ahead, we just need to get moving in our vehicle. (In other words, we don’t need more or bigger, more impressive faith. We just need to use the faith we have!) Just put your car in drive! We need to be disciplined and be reminded to keep moving forward by putting our words in line with our faith, and believe God for great things!!! Let’s not go backward, or roll backward. Stay out of neutral and never sit around wasting gas on idle -especially at these gas prices! God is into progress….let’s get moving….! Today I encourage you (to get your faith out of park, and start driving!)
