I think that the message contained below is for you today and always.

Just Believe!

The great thing about God and His Word, is that he has made it so simple. Sadly, there are lots of books, magazines, audio or even people who will tell you things that you should do to make your life joyful and worth living. ...With all those things around, sometimes it even confuses us because of the diverse views that are available out there. Don't listen to man and the world, for it will just complicate things. Go to the source that controls the situation. THE BIBLE - GOD'S WORD!!!
BELIEVE THAT YOU WILL HAVE TRIBULATION

God didn't say that if we become a Christian, it will all rosy and easy for us. In John 16:33 Jesus is giving his disciples his instructions for when he goes to be with the Father. In verse 33 ‘in the world you will have tribulation, but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” We are to expect tribulation; we tend to think that it is strange that bad things are happening to us. We feel picked on, we say how unfair it is, but Jesus warns us we shall have tribulation. It will be apart of life. God did not create us to have this kind of life, but because sin came into the world, the world and our bodies became imperfect; we became susceptible to disease, to attacks from the ruler of this world. Satan.

* When Jesus says He overcame the world, He means He overcame sin and death. When He bids us to walk in His way and by His light, it is because He has walked this way before us. He knows where the sharp stones and stumbling blocks lie hidden and where thorns and thistles are the most severe.

BELIEVE THAT GOD IS GOOD

Know this, that God is good and all tings that come from Him is good. We again must know where the bad things come from. They come from sin and the prince of this world, Satan and not God. Satan's only purpose is to make your life miserable. He wants you to think that God is not capable of anything and that He does not care for you. These are the lies of the enemy.

In Psalms 34 & 37, it speaks of his desire to give us the desires of our hearts, how he wants to deliver us from all our afflictions. He is not angry with us; he is not looking to withhold things from us as punishment. In Psalms 84:11 “no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. Our problem is we give into the lie from Satan of how unrighteous we are. How bad we are deep down, how we fall short of the mark. These are all lies, because you received the atonement, you are now seen through his eyes “as white as snow.” We can go boldly before the throne, not because we see ourselves as right, but because he sees us as right. It is one of Satan’s tactics to bring guilt, or a feeling of unworthiness, so that we won’t even ask God for the thing we need and the answer that God wants you to have.

BELIEVE THAT GOD IS POWERFUL

God can pull you out of the situation you are facing now. Fear has a tendency to give us amnesia. We quickly forget that to God all things are possible. No matter what kind of sickness you have, he can cure you. We forget that he effortlessly spoke all things into existence. He is all powerful, His power is endless. He knows our body better than any doctor, scientist, even better than ourselves. After all he created us all things are from him. Nothing is more powerful or on equal power as God.

There is not an impossible situation or thing for with God all things are possible. We must believe this in order for the impossible to happen. It is important to remind us though of this very thing. He is powerful enough to change any situation. “Is anything to hard for the Lord?” Genesis 18:14 says, and the answer is no. Blind eyes can see, limbs can grow, the dead can rise, marriages restored, forgiveness giving, even our minds can be transformed or metamorphosis. We can expect the impossible to become possible. In Isaiah 26:4 “for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength.” He is just waiting to use it in your situation. We should expect supernatural things to happen in our lives.

BELIEVE THAT HE IS ABLE AND HE WILL

After we recognize that God can do anything. After we recognize he has good intentions toward us that he is good. We then must know that he is willing to do it for you, today. Every story that you have read in the Bible are true. He still wishes to be that kind of God today as he was in the Bible. This is where most people are misguided about God. They think that God either won’t do this for them, or that God will do something when he wants to. They think of him as inconsistent some even think he is moody like we are. There are days when you want to do a lot of things. Then there are days that you just do not feel like doing anything at all. We think God is the same way, we beg him to try and get him to act. We fast to get His attention, we cry out, we go and do good deeds. We do all this in an attempt to get God to move for us. He is our heavenly Father and He says He will be a better father than any earthly dad. He even has been proactive to help us in the world. He has already taken care of all our disease, infirmities, sins, he has giving us weapons to defend ourselves, and weapons to go on the attack. God has already spoken your victory. You no longer must get his attention you must use what he has giving you. Your only must trust that he will. God is no respecter of person, what he has done for one he will do for everyone. God is waiting on us to ask, to believe, then to receive. He does not act until we give him the permission. We have a law called “The Good Samaritan,” it is to protect a person who performs first aid on someone. When you go through first aid training one of the first things taught is we must ask the victim if we may permission to perform first aid. With God we must grant him the authority to act on our behalf.

BELIEVE...JUST BELIEVE!

When we FIRST accepted Jesus Christ, the only thing we are required to do is believe. Hebrews 11:6 says “he that comes to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. We are saved by faith, and we are healed, delivered, provided for also by faith. Faith is simply believing that God will do what he said he would do without having it first. It is knowing that you are healed before a doctor or even your own body says it. Its taking God’s spoken Word as truth over what your senses say. As you read through God’s word you find out that it is not hard to receive from God. In Matthew 9:28-29 “and when he was to come into the house, the blind man came to him: and Jesus says unto him, believe you that I am able to do this? They said unto him, yea Lord. Then touched he their eyes, saying according to your faith be it unto you.”

Just believe means that no matter what it looks like on the outside. God loves you unconditionally; you don’ have to change before receiving his forgiveness or healing. He wants to meet you where you are at right now. He will help you change but he first wants to show you that he loves you. Jesus preformed so many miracles in the gospels and he always asked the person or the person confessed that they believed he was able and willing to act.
