BE CERTAIN OF GOD

Life gets hard sometimes and the clouds just seem to stay

And as hard as you might try, they just won’t go away

There’s no reason you can find to say this is the cause

It’s nothing that’s external though the mind still fights this war

Though shadowed in the sunshine, there’s assurance to be had

All is well within the Word, things really aren’t that bad

So with minds energy depleted and annoying lethargy

Though the tunnel may seem long, there’s a light that you can see

In the Word we’re clearly told, of God we can be certain

Though joy and peace seem far away, it’s just hid behind a curtain

It’s a curtain of illusion, God’s just testing for reaction

Will we pass the test, to God’s satisfaction?

Jesus said He’d never, leave me nor forsake me

And it won’t be long before, to His home He’ll take me

So regardless of my mood I’m still in love with Jesus

The Word still satisfies and my soul it pleases

 

 

If you've met God's requirement, and in your heart you believe that He is, God's only testing your faith, for He loves to do that. You've confessed your sin and you've met every requirement that God requires, and still He lays silent, remember, faith says that He is. Then faith holds onto it, not knowing what it's all about, but it knows that He is, and it's certain that He is.

 Then remember, if He is, His Word has to be true. And if He required you to meet these circumstances and you did, He's obligated to take care of His Word. Don't back off and say, "Oh, I never got healed." Oh, you poor, weak faith. Don't believe that. If everything's confessed, and everything's out, and you met God's requirement, faith holds right there. There's nothing will move it. He is, and you're sure. "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with the wings of an eagle. They shall run and not be weary; if they walk, they shall not faint."
Wait, when you've met His requirements; that brings your faith to a showdown. If God's requirements has been met, and you have fully considered it, and you have done everything that God required you to do, then your faith rests right there that He is. Be certain of God.
