Believing enough

It is not difficult for us to believe, the miraculous healing or provision or any other miraculous intervention, the Lord bought in the lives of the people during His time on earth. We rejoice when we read that Jesus healed the blind man, the leper, deaf, mute and various other diseases. We are amazed to see His feeding the five thousand, or provision of manna and water in the desert. But when it comes to our need and provisions in our life, do we believe that He is able to do the same, what He did for them.

Yes, Jesus is able to do now what He did to the people of His times or even before. For He is the same today, tomorrow and forever more. But we need to have that faith and confess that He is able to do so. For it is our faith that can move the hand of God.

Heb 11:6 (NIV)
And without faith it is impossible to please God...

Matthew 9:28-29 (NIV)
When he had gone indoors, the blind men came to him, and he asked them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?"
"Yes, Lord" they replied.
Then he touched their eyes and said, "According to your faith it will be done to you"

Jesus waiting to see us demonstrate our faith. And it will be done according to our faith in every matter of life. Amen.
