Say He Can't

Have you ever noticed how much children believe and how little they fear? A child has so little fear because they don’t yet know how to project future possibilities into their current thought process. All they know is to remember what’s happened before and make decisions based on that. And this is the secret - it’s the difference between fear and faith, between the sane and the insane, between the realistic and the irrational - fear is based on what might happen; faith is based on what has already happened. In our miniseries about the sanity of insane faith, pastor Brant Cole talks about how the faith of believers isn’t based on hopes and dreams that they want God to make happen for them; their faith is fixed on the promises given to them by a God who has proven himself faithful over and over again. In other words, "faith isn’t holding onto my hopes; faith is pursuing God’s promises."
