Fully Persuaded

Romans 4:21 "And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform."

Do you ever stop to think that most of us found it easy to believe in the power of the gospel at the time of salvation?  Most of us have little trouble in believing that God is capable of saving us and rarely ever doubt our salvation.  We find it easier to trust in a God we have never seen to deliver our souls from a hell we have never seen and take us to heaven, which again we have never seen.  It's almost like as long as the issue is  dealing with things we have never seen then we are fine with trusting the Almighty to care for us for all of eternity.

Then we have the other side of the coin.  In matters of normal life we suffer greatly from unbelief because we somehow doubt His ability to care for the needs we can see (food, money, debt, health, etc.) that impact our lives daily.  How absurd is this?  Our minds live in two separate worlds...one for the spiritual and the other for the tangible.

The truth is that God is able to meet our every need both the seen and unseen.  We must, as Abraham, be fully persuaded that He is able to perform all His promises.  The problem is being fully persuaded.  We tend to be fully persuaded in the might of our strength and the ways of this humanistic world order. 

Romans 8:31-32 "What shall we then say to these things?  If God be for us, who can be against us?  He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him freely give us all things?"  Considering this truth why would we ever doubt or be anything but fully persuaded that He is willing and able to perform His promises concerning our well-being?

God's Word is replete with promises that God will provide for His own and would never withhold from us anything good that we need to be happy and secure.

God has provided all you need to have a great day today...make it happen!
