Walk in the Word

Scripture Declarations

When All You Have Is a Promise...

March 2023

It's easy to believe in things we can see and touch with our senses, but that's not what real faith is.

Faith is believing in something as though it were sitting right in front of you. It means believing for something even though your senses and maybe even the world around you tells you not to. It's choosing to believe in a promise God has given you... before it comes to pass in your life.

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1 (NKJV)

We can take a look at Abraham and his life as a perfect example of holding onto faith. God promised him and his wife Sarah not just one child, but descendants that would outnumber the grains of sand on Earth and stars in the sky! And all he had was that promise.

Abraham didn't know HOW God was going to do it. In his mind he and his wife were far too old to have children.

He also didn't know WHEN it would happen. He had to wait many years for this promise to come to pass.

And he didn't even fully know WHY God had promised it. He wasn't given all the details of the impact he and his descendants would make on the world.

All he had was a promise—and he held tight to it!

Right now you might be holding onto a promise from God for your life. You might not know how it could ever happen, when it will happen or even why that promise is important for you to walk out.

When doubt began to creep into Abraham's heart, he turned back to God's words, that his descendants would be more than the grains of sand on Earth and stars in the sky. When doubt creeps into your heart, turn to God's Word. Drown out the fear with words like, "Even when I can't see answers yet, I choose to walk in faith and believe that God's Word is the evidence of what's mine in Christ."

Shoot for the moon, because whatever you're planning, God is thinking higher. Take action and say, "When I declare God's Word in faith and don't let doubt take root in my heart, mountains move aside! I receive in faith everything God has promised me." He wants to bless you greater than you could ever think, dream or imagine!
