Psalm 94:16-19
Let’s be honest, there are times when doubts fill our minds. It is hard not to be swayed by what we see sometimes but God is faithful. He always comes through. Our issue is often the time involved before our deliverance comes. A test of faith? Almost always, but it leads to another testimony of God’s unfailing love, setting us up for our next challenge to overcome. You see, Scripture says we go from faith to faith. Our faith grows through adversity or resistance much like our muscles grow. We have to work them for them to get stronger. In the same we, we must exercise our faith for it to grow.
Our belief and faith in God is precious to Him. Our Hope in Him is never misplaced.
Peter states in 1 Peter 1:6-7:
“So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you must endure many trials for a little while. These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.”

In fact, as Hebrews 11:6 states:
“And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.”
Hebrews 11:6 NLT

Our belief in Him unlocks the storehouses of heaven for us in times of need. As Hebrews 4:16 states:
“So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most.”
Hebrews 4:16 NLT

God can be trusted to come through for us but as Jesus laments in Luke 18:8:
“But when the Son of Man returns, how many will he find on the earth who have faith?””
Luke 18:8 NLT

Keep the faith!
