Bible verses about believing God

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-30-17

by

Psalm 89:8 (NKJV) 8 O Lord God of hosts, Who is mighty like You, O Lord? Your faithfulness also surrounds You.

God is faithful to help us ordinary people do great things on this earth, and still remain humble.

Here are just a few examples…

If Joseph didn’t do his part, if Mary didn’t do her part, if John the Baptist didn’t do his part, where would we be today? These were just ordinary people following God’s plan with their hearts.

You see, Joseph’s part was to believe what God was doing in Mary. This child of the Holy Spirit, this child who would come and save us from our sins, was in his soon-to-be wife’s belly. He had to believe and accept that it was as he had been told. It took an angel to convince him, but he accepted it.

After the child was born, he had to follow God’s steps in keeping Him safe and protected. Right from the beginning, his son was sought after. Herod wanted Him dead. In order to keep Him alive, Joseph had to listen to God and obey Him, taking the necessary steps to keep his Son alive.

Mary’s part was to accept God’s word for her, that she would be pregnant by the seed of the Holy Spirit and carry God’s Son, Jesus Christ.

She had to believe that she would be impregnated without ever being intimately involved with a man. That takes faith!

John the Baptist was to be a witness for Jesus, telling people about Him before anyone knew who He was. He was a ground breaker, so to speak. He was a preparer; someone who puts his reputation on the line. And he couldn’t care less what people thought about him.

The birth and preparation of our Messiah took place through God speaking to ordinary people like you and I. All they did was believe and obey.

We ask the question; do we know what God is speaking to our hearts today? Believe Him, listen for the steps, and obey. He is faithful to see it through! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-22-16

by

Matthew 13:58 Now He did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.

The He that they are referring to in this verse is Jesus. Because of their unbelief, Jesus did not do mighty works there in that area.

It’s important that we understand that unbelief will cause us to miss out on seeing mighty works done, in the church, in our homes, in our lives and in our town. Unbelief will hold back the mighty works of Jesus Christ.

Mighty works come, and change happens when we believe Jesus for them. We can’t do them on our own.

A Pastor, Priest, Evangelist, etc. can not do them on their own and we can not talk ourselves into making it happen.

Jesus Christ needed the people to believe if they wanted to see mighty works done.

If we are in need today of a mighty work of God, whether in our own lives, or maybe others we see around us, but we are struggling with unbelief, ask God for help.

Mark 9:24 (NKJV) 24 Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!”

He is willing to help us. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-12-16

by

John 4:50 (NKJV) 50 Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your son lives.” So the man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.

Jesus spoke His WORD to this man and the man took Him at it and BELIEVED Him.

This man implored Jesus, meaning he made a very serious or emotional request to Him.

How serious are we when it comes to getting Jesus’ help? Are we STILL trying to fix things on our own and then blaming Him because nothing has changed?

This is huge, because in this verse there is a need. The man’s son needs healing or he will die.

John 4:47 (NKJV) 47 When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and implored Him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

It is a life-threatening need.

What are we going through today? Maybe we are facing a life-threatening situation as well. Maybe with ourselves, or a loved one? Maybe our marriage is falling apart, or our relationship with our children needs help, etc. Maybe we are up against something very hard and we need His WORD for our situation.

But, it doesn’t stop there, we can not just get a word and that’s it. We have to do what this man did and believe. We have to believe HIS word, BEFORE we see the results.

Here it is…The man did not know his son was healed, but he believed Jesus’ word. It was after, when he arrived home that they told him.

John 4:52 (NKJV) 52 Then he inquired of them the hour when he got better. And they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.”

The same hour that he believed!!

John 4:53 (NKJV) 53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives.” And he himself believed, and his whole household.

Some of us are on the fence, waiting to SEE the results before we completely believe. It’s not going to happen that way. Believing comes first.

First, we need to make a very serious request for Jesus’ word for our situation. Very serious; that means even if we don’t like what we know or hear, we must submit to it and follow it out. Second, believe that it will be done according to His word and what He shows us, even before we see the results.

If we want His results, we must hear it and believe it!

May His healing be upon you, your life, your situation and all that you are dealing with today. Amen.
