[Discoveries] 12-31-07 A window to God -- Acts 3:16

[Inspiration in Your Inbox]

/*By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know was made 
strong. -- Acts 3:16*/

I often think about the verse, "And I saw a great white throne and Him 
who sat upon it from whose face earth and heaven fled away and there was 
found no place for them." When God is revealed, everything is 
transformed. I can't find words strong enough to express what happens 
when God makes His entrance.

I was asking the Lord why faith was so important to Him, and I think He 
was telling me that faith provides an avenue for God to show up. He 
conceals Himself most of the time so men can be free to choose good or 
evil. But faith pokes a little hole in the curtain and allows the light 
of His presence and power to shine through.

We say that we must believe because we cannot see. But I think it is 
more a case of: we must believe in order to see.

Where can we direct our faith today? God, grant us the grace to believe 
so that Your presence and power can be revealed in our lives.

Be encouraged!
Dwight
