By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know was made strong. — Acts 3:16
I often think about the verse, "And I saw a great white throne and Him who sat upon it from whose face earth and heaven fled away and there was found no place for them." When God is revealed, everything is transformed. I can’t find words strong enough to express what happens when God makes His entrance.
I was asking the Lord why faith was so important to Him, and I think He was telling me that faith provides an avenue for God to show up. He conceals Himself most of the time so men can be free to choose good or evil. But faith pokes a little hole in the curtain and allows the light of His presence and power to shine through.
We say that we must believe because we cannot see. But I think it is more a case of: we must believe in order to see.
Where can we direct our faith today? God, grant us the grace to believe so that Your presence and power can be revealed in our lives.
Be encouraged!
