| Consider Your God |
|
| THE SCRIPTURE: |
| “And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body...he did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform...” |
| (Romans 4:19–21, NKJV) |
|
| THE WORD: |
Abraham, who is known as our father in the faith, had
many obstacles coming against the promise of God in his life. God told
him that he would be “the father of many nations.” Abraham was over 90
years old before he ever saw that promise begin to come to pass. This
scripture tells us that He didn’t consider his body. He didn’t think and
meditate on all the reasons why he couldn’t be the father of many
nations. No, he considered and thought about the strength and ability of
God! He thought about God’s faithfulness and gave praise and glory to
Him. The faith that Abraham exercised opened the door for God to do
mighty things in and through Him.
Today, what are you believing God for? Does it seem
impossible? Has it taken a long time? Consider your God. Consider His
Word. Consider His faithfulness. Just like Abraham, you’ll grow strong
in faith as you give glory to God. Trust Him today and experience the
victory He has in store for you tomorrow!
