If Dr. Oz or another famous TV doctor states that a certain food helps prevent cancer, a lot of us will immediately start incorporating that food into our diet. If they say a certain vitamin will clear up our skin or help our hair grow, a lot of us will purchase that vitamin. The majority of us don’t research the food or vitamin ourselves to ensure the doctor’s facts were correct. Most of us will simply take their word for it because of who they are and where we’ve obtained the information.

God has been around forever. His unchanged Word has been in book form for at least 1,000 years. Why is it so easy for us to accept new medical facts from TV doctors, but we question in unbelief God’s Word? It seems we have more faith in what “people of importance” say over God’s Word.

We’ll change our eating habits to improve our health, but we won’t change our behavior to improve our relationship with God. We’ll buy a $20.00 bottle of vitamins because we believe it will improve our health, but we won’t give $20.00 in church because it’s difficult for us to believe our giving will improve our quality of life.

We all have faith. It’s just that for some of us, our faith is misplaced. Let’s place our faith in God’s Word and believe that whatever is said in God’s Word, will come to pass in our lives.

Isaiah 55:11 So will My word be which goes forth from My mouth; It will not return to Me empty, Without accomplishing what I desire, And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it.
