Faith In God's WordSample

Satan calls into question the integrity of God. But as we see in the Bible, it is impossible for God to lie—it’s against His nature. While it is impossible for God to tell a lie, it is nearly impossible for Satan to tell the truth. In the Garden of Eden, he pulled Eve away from God using a lie that looked good to her.

This is every Christian’s battle. Satan starts by introducing a little lie that casts doubt. The reason we believe the Bible is the Word of God is because Jesus said it was the Word of God. If Jesus was wrong about that, then He was not Jesus. Jesus would be in error, so He could not be the Son of God. We know Jesus could not be in error and be God as well. So then the Bible is the Word of God.

Satan wants us to doubt God’s Word. Whether we’ll admit it or not, we’ve all failed to act on His Word. We often turn to other sources of assistance in dealing with money, family, life, priorities and choices.

When we consider the Biblical heroes found throughout the Old and New Testaments, there's one major shared characteristic between them: their faith. They each made the decision to believe and act on the words God had spoken. If you have a relationship with Jesus today, then you have a reason to act in faith on God's Word. Following in the footsteps of Biblical heroes does not require you to walk across a sea on dry land. It simply means that you're choosing to respond in faith to the Word God has spoken.
