Believing God

Today was the last day of the Believing God study. It has been an absolutely amazing study! We have learned so much about what it means to believe God - not just believe in Him, but to believe Him - continually, present active participle believe. I want to continue this thing - believing God, even when the circumstances make me wonder, "What in the world is He doing?" Because He is a HUGE God, His ways are perfect, and the Bible tells me so.

The Commission to Faith

Lord, today I accept my calling
not to perfection or performance.
My calling is to faith.
I have been chosen for this generation.
I have a place in the heritage of faith.
I'm going to stop wishing and whining
and start believing and receiving.
What Your Word says is mine.
I won't let others steal my hope.
I won't argue with a Pharisee.
I will believe and therefore speak,
for You, my God, are huge.
Nothing is too hard for You.
Our world needs your wonders.
Rise up, oh Lord!
Please renew Your works in our day.
I confess the unbelief of my generation
and ask You to begin Your revival of faith
in my own heart.
For You are who You say You are.
You can do what You say You can do.
I am who You say I am.
I can do all things through Christ.
Your Word is alive and active in me.
Satan, hear me clearly:
My Father is Maker of heaven and earth.
You are under my feet,
because today and the rest of my days,

I'm Believing God!
