Pastor’s Pen for Sunday, 11-15-26
Our God is the awesome God. He’s BIG! REAL BIG. So big that it’s why we have faith in Him, because we believe who the Bible reveals He is. It’s the basis of our faith. Hebrews 11:6 (KJV): 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. We must believe that He is before we can believe that He can. Genuine faith manifests in the actions it produces. We see this throughout scripture when different Bible characters are seen reacting in different situations, Luke 7:9 (KJV): 9 When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. Matthew 14:31 (KJV): 31 And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? Acts 6:5 (KJV): 5 And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch, and many other scripture that reveal how our faith is seen in the actions it produces. That faith is a result of our understanding of the God revealed in the Bible, and our believing it. As Heb. 11:6 says, he that comes to God must believe that He is. We don’t worship what we don’t believe in. We don’t pray to what we don’t believe in, and we don’t have faith in what we don’t believe in. This big God wants to have a relationship with His people, fellowship and communion, and He proves it by wrapping Himself in human flesh, coming through 14 generations (from Abraham to Christ), born in a manger, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead and buried, but rose on the third day, that men might be saved. I am convinced that this awesome God, who is as big as big can be, was willing to die for me, won’t tell me something that will harm me now. I have faith in Him.
