TO THE BIBLE:
Matthew 9:28
“And when He had come into the house, the blind men came to Him. And Jesus said to them, ‘Do you believe that I am able to do this?’ They said to Him, ‘Yes, Lord.’“
LET’S TALK
A man came to Jesus one day to ask the Master to heal his demon-possessed son. The man said to Jesus, “If You can do anything, have compassion on us and help us” (Mark 9:22b). The Master replied, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes” (Mark 9:23). Finally, the man blurted out, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief” (Mark 9:24)! He was trying to put the responsibility for his believing on Jesus, which shouldn’t be. The Lord, nonetheless, compassionately healed the boy.
Many people are like that man today. They think that if they’re unbelieving, it’s up to God to help them believe, but it’s not so. The Bible says, “…with the heart one believes unto righteousness…” (Romans 10:10). You believe with your heart. This means that believing is a choice, which is entirely up to you; it’s your responsibility to believe. God isn’t the one to make you believe His Word. You’re the one to choose to believe His Word, and when you do, you’ll see His glory in your life (John 11:40).
God is looking for someone who can believe! Every time He locates such a person, He does mighty things in his life. Abraham believed God and received a son in his old age. Moses believed God and led more than six million Jews through the midst of the Red Sea. He’s looking for those who can stake their lives on His Word.
Make a choice today to believe; cast yourself on His Word, trusting that everything the Lord has said is true. Your dreams—whether it’s getting into the right school, acquiring a scholarship, or becoming who God has called you to be—are possible if only you can believe. Praise God!
GO DEEPER
John 11:40
Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?
Mark 9:23
Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
PRAY
Dear Father, thank you for giving me a heart that can believe. My hope and my faith rest completely in your Word, because it’s the only sure foundation. I believe that everything your Word has said concerning me is true, dependable, and sure, and I cast myself wholly upon your Word, knowing that my future is secure in you, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
