The enemy seeks to have us question our faith. Whether it be our Christian character; our belief in God; our belief that Jesus is the son of God and that He died for our sins; that God's Word is true... But we have to understand that without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him
So, what does this mean. It means that no matter how contradictory the words of the person who keeps trying to plant negative seeds in your thought life are to the Word of God and what HE has spoken (although the words may make sense at the time spoken), you must continue to stand on God's Word without wavering and without doubt. It means that the harder the test or trial ... the harder you press into God. It means that you understand that the reward is not in material things; but, that the reward is victory over strongholds; victory over situations and circumstances; victory over the opinions of people... The reward is knowing more of God intimately. The reward is having your name written in the Lambs book of Life. The reward is knowing that because you continue to pray, study, read, worship, converse with God the Father ... He covers you, protects you, hides you, fights FOR you, carries your burden, gives you peace that surpasses ALL understanding, fills your mind with creative ideas, makes EVERY crooked place straight....
Knowing that God is means that He is real to you; and, that no one can make you doubt it. How do I know if my clothes will fit ... I try them on. How do I know if my dinner will be pleasing to my family... I taste and see that it is good. There is an old adage that says "I tried Him and I know Him..." Keep "trying" Him. He said in His Word for us to "prove Him". Don't stop, don't give up, don't let go... remain DILIGENT in your walk with God, in your pursuit of WHO He is not just WHAT He can give you and He WILL reward your Faith in HIM!
