Proof is irrefutable. When you have tangible proof, you lose the restriction placed by fear. Those around you can see, know and hear the sound of fearlessness coming from certainty. It's the same with faith in GOD. At first, we come to GOD in faith. Shaky as it might be, testing the waters, just maybe, this JESUS thing may be more than just a coincidence. We walk with GOD as though on water. Until we step on the first proof of GOD on the earth: the ground. Then we experience miracle after miracle and our faith is built up. See, you don't regard the ground as a miracle because you think it always was. Think again. My Bible tells me GOD called the earth to be. It wasn't always there. Matter of fact, Genesis 1 clearly makes the statement that "In the beginning, GOD created the Heavens and the Earth. And the earth was without form and void and darkness covered the face of the whole earth." So if you came to the earth then, you would have dwelled with water and darkness. Think about it. Then look at the ground again, and intentionally recognize it as a miracle. When you do, gratitude flows like a river! When I'm going through a stressful, challenging season, I look to the ground and recognize that I am standing on a GOD-made miracle. I recognize that Almighty GOD has not left me. That when GOD promised to help and strengthen me, HE will. That GOD meant it when HE said I will never leave you nor forsake you. That JESUS is indeed my healing, my provider, my defender, my protector and my shield. Amen? The man driving the car you long for, has problems you don't want to touch. All rich people are not miserable, but it's better to have JESUS than wealth. If you ever have to choose, choose Jesus. We are such a proof-driven generation that we cannot accept faith easily. But today, if you will start believing GOD before the thing HE promised you comes to pass, you will experience unequaled joy knowing that at worst, if it doesn't happen in your generation, GOD will do it in your childrens'. With GOD, step one is always faith. When I was in Israel, and entered the Garden Tomb, before I stepped out, I touched it. I had to make sure of what I saw and heard. I wanted to leave with full assurance, not only because I believed, but also because I touched. JESUS is alive. When I say this now, I say it with full assurance. I know for certain that JESUS CHRIST defeated death, hell, and the grave. JESUS crushed sin, failure, sickness. The greatest Proof of all is the cross on which JESUS died. Publicly, with the audience of both subjects and kings, citizens and foreigners, prisoners and soldiers, JESUS died a public, shameful death--to make sure everyone saw the purchase of eternal life for humanity. What must we do in the face of such irrefutable proof? Believe. Believe in the Name of JESUS CHRIST and we shall be saved, as Scripture says. The enemy may do everything to show you that you are not healed, saved or delivered. Simply shove the eternal price paid by JESUS for you and me in his face. Stand firm in the proof of GOD's Word and promises, and one day, just like the thousands of prophecies in the Bible that have been fulfilled, your divine promise, your Proof, will become physical reality. When it does, make sure to shout it loud, and give GOD glory. Then, those you love will learn to go to GOD for their own solutions, a.k.a, proof.
