Allowing God to Prove Himself (Episode 117)

As Christians, we often make claims about God based on the declarations of His Word. We say God is our healer or our deliverer or our provider, etc. These become what we call our confessions. But how willing are you to allow God to prove Himself to be the God you say He is in your life? What the world is looking for is proof for our assertions. It’s one thing to quote the Scriptures about God’s goodness and His awesome power. But it’s another thing to produce some proof of the same. Also, a big difference exists between trusting God because you have no other choice and trusting Him even when you have other options. Many times, when we face a challenge, we have options other than trusting God. If we stand in need of financial help, for instance, we can choose to seek God’s provision. Or we can go to a lending institution or a to person and borrow money. But in this episode, Evangelist Frank King challenges believers to choose to trust God even when other options exist. This is how we allow God to prove Himself to be who we go around saying that He is to us. It’s human nature, however, for us to not want to put ourselves through the rigor of trusting God—especially when we have other options. And that’s why today we have comfortable Christianity and so few living testimonies about the goodness and the greatness of our God. A main reason for attending church to hear the Word of God and for studying the Bible in our home SHOULD BE so we can put His promises to the test. God cannot prove Himself to be the God we claim that He is if we don’t trust Him enough to allow Him to do so.
