O LORD Almighty, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
Psalm 84:12 (NIV)
Many times in The Bible faith has saved people, sinners, murderers, adulterers, and even you and me. But the lack of faith has caused a heap of trouble. Even the super heroes of The Bible had their moments of unfaithfulness.
Abraham didn't have faith in God's covenants and took things into his own hands by having a child with his wife's servant. The Israelites could have taken the whole Promise Land, but they didn't trust God to fight their battles and they were later overthrown.
I know that our distrust doesn't create the same consequences as it did in The Old Testament, but God has saved us from so many things. And still we don't trust him with the little things like tithing and trusting authority.
God deserves our trust, and when we trust him he blesses us. He never ceases to amaze me and blow my mind everyday.
"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”
Deuteronomy 31:6 (NIV)
