Dare to Believe

How easy it is for us to believe the promises of God especially when we are not in challenging situations. For instance, it may not be difficult for us to believe that the Lord provides all our needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Phil 4: 19) when we are holding good jobs. However, it will be difficult for us to believe and acknowledge His promise in tough and challenging situations. 

When we know that in some situation we need purely but a miracle, we will easily forget God's promise which says that God can do much more than we think or ask (Eph 3:20) and go about life by working things with our limited strength, knowledge and the best of our limited intellect...sarcastic isn't it?

Are we people who will believe God's word according to our convenience? Or do we dare to believe His word no matter the situation? Do we have the daring faith like the heroes of the Bible in Hebrews 11...

If yes, than I am sure you will acknowledge and claim this promise of God for your life and situation...

Ephesians 3:20 (NASB)
Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us,

And believe me He will only do that which is good for us ...and not as per our whims and fancies. Let us make sure our heart, will and desires are right before God. Amen.
