Do We Believe Him?

The Lord may not tell us exactly what He’s doing, or going to do – but He always reveals to us who He is. One thing we can be sure of is that we can trust a known God to an unknown future! This was so evident in John 18 & 19. I was struck at how calmly He answered the soldiers in the Garden when they came to arrest Him and then how He stood before Pilate who said, “Do you refuse to speak to me? Don’t you realize I have power either to free you or to crucify you?” Jesus answered, “You would have no power over me if it were not given to you from above.” (Vs.10-11) He knew where He was headed then and He knows where we are headed now!

So we must ask ourselves: do we believe in a miracle working God? Will we go forward with our eyes fixed on Him, surrendered to Him, and not surprised by anything He does?

He is not only the God who saves, but also the God of kindness, gentleness, and mercy. He is the One who shelters us under His wing. He is the God who loves fiercely, who will never leave us, nor leave us where we are! He is the God who transforms and the God who renews.

“Our God is a God who saves! The Sovereign LORD rescues us from death.” Psalm 68:20

Let us continue to trust Him as we move forward.
