Bp524 - Believe

“I will take you as My people, and I will be your God” (Exodus 6:7).

God desires that we know Him. He revealed and manifested Himself to His people through great deliverances, signs and wonders — and yet they did not know their God.

“For forty years I was grieved with that generation, and said, ‘It is a people who go astray in their hearts, and they do not know My ways’” (Psalm 95:10)

God is still looking for a people who will let Him be God to them. We are like Israel in that we have witnessed miracles, experienced manifestation of His presence and had our prayers answered. When troubles come we still doubt Him and we don't fully trust Him.

Rest in the knowledge that Jesus loves you dearly.

When the enemy comes in like a roaring lion, don't panic. When the floods overwhelm you, don't despair - just rest. Say, "God loves me — Jesus loves me. I know and believe in His love.” Let us be a people who know their God and know His ways.

Surely, this is our God; we trusted in Him, and He saved us. This is the Lord, we trusted in Him; let us rejoice and be glad in His salvation.' Isaiah 25:9

The word " trusted" appears twice in this verse. The word trust means, you have faith in Jesus, in your waiting, in your pleading, in your praying. It basically means to rest, trustfully, in God at all times.

Perhaps you are waiting for God to do something in your life. You don't understand why things are not happening in the way you expected it to happen. I want to encourage you, God knows everything and He sees everything. He knows your fear , He knows every anxious thought.

It may not make sense now, but He will cause you to see the salvation of God, the goodness of God, the greatness of God, and the wisdom of God, in ways far greater than you could think or imagine. Don't lose heart. Be of good cheer.

Walk through the doors God opens, His plan for you is unstoppable.
