Of Course You Believe It 3/11 Monday Meditation
[I will be posting only Monday and Tuesday this week.]
Now another thing, beloved, you do not have to try to believe the Word, do you? That would be an awful thing for me to have to try to believe my own Father. How would I feel if I were to write to my little boy and say, "Son, I am going to send you $5.00." And then he would go to his mother and say, "I want you to help me believe that papa will send me $5.00. I want you to stand with me in faith that I will believe that papa will send me the $5.00."
Do you know I would get a telegram from her if he would talk like that? She would say, "John, you better pray for that boy. Something has gone wrong with his head." There must be something wrong with us when we try to believe what He says. Let's stop all that baby business. In the name of Jesus Christ, don't ever magnify the devil by letting him know you do not believe that book. Don't you ever lower the standard. Don't you weaken it. It is God's book. Of course you believe it . His people for ages and ages have believed it, and it has never failed.
-- John G. Lake
