Good morning dear ones!

Did you know that nothing in the world glorifies God more than a simple rest of FAITH IN HIS WORD? When we say, “I believe in God”, what does that mean? It means having FAITH IN HIS WORD ~ Believing what He said. See, when we know what God’s Word says, and have FAITH IN HIS WORD, we can lay hold of any of the 7,000 promises and not struggle anymore. 2 Corinthians 1:20 says,

• For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.

Our FAITH IN GOD’S WORD is an experience of our confidence in God and HIS WORD. Faith in God grows out of the Word of God, so let’s make HIS WORD our final authority, and not what other people say.

FAITH IN GOD’S WORD will always cause us to be victorious in every situation in our life. 1 John 5:4 says,

• For whatever is born of God is victorious over the world; and this is the victory that conquers the world, even our faith.

The WORD OF GOD also declares in 2 Corinthians 2:14,

• Now thanks be to God Who always causes us to triumph in Christ…

Did you know that God actually watches over His Word to perform it? Yum ~ this is what Jeremiah 1:12 says. So, when we meditate in GOD’S WORD, like we’re instructed to do from Joshua 1:8, believe it, and begin to speak it out of our mouths, great changes will take place ~ Supernatural things, because God is watching to see that HIS WORD is fulfilled. How amazing is that?

It’s imperative that we meditate on GOD’S WORD long enough so that GOD’S WORD becomes our new reality. We must build up our confidence in what God says, and believe that more than anything else. Confidence is like the match that ignites the faith fuse. It’s something that’s developed as we spend more time with God, just like we develop confidence in certain people because we spend so much time with them. By constantly fellowshipping with the Lord, meditating on HIS WORD, and putting ourselves in remembrance of what He has already done, we develop ultimate trust and confidence in Him. The more confident we become, the more our faith will be activated. Hebrews 10:35 says,

• Therefore, do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward.

According to Webster’s Dictionary, confidence is defined as, “reliance or trust; a trusting relationship; a feeling of self-assurance.” So, when we have confidence in God, we firmly rely on Him and trust that HIS WORD will surely come to pass. Confidence leaves no room for doubt.

I exhort you to not let your confidence in GOD’S WORD dwindle, because there is a great reward attached to remaining steadfast in our trust in God. When we’re confident that what God said will come to pass, we’ll become bolder when it comes to stepping out in faith. When God tells us to do something, we won’t hesitate.

During the times we’re living in, we have plenty of opportunity to exercise our confidence and FAITH IN GOD’S WORD. You may be experiencing financial challenges, issues with your health, or things going on in your relationships. Whatever the situation might be, the key is to find the solution in the WORD OF GOD and begin releasing your faith in what God has promised. He will never fail you and He honors the confidence of the one who trusts in Him completely.

Believing in God’s Word,
