Today’s Word from God’s Word-Believe

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Word from God’s Word is Believe.

In the Bible, this word is key for our salvation. To believe in Jesus goes beyond acknowledging that He exists. James 2:19 says that even the demons believe that there is one God and they shudder. Clearly, they are not on God’s side and shudder for a reason.

Romans 10:9 gives us clarity for what it means to believe in the Gospel. “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord”, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”

Saving faith believes in the identity of Jesus as the Bible reveals Him and His accomplishments at the cross and empty grave. Saving faith trusts in His grace to forgive us and save us from our sins.

Discover how the word “Believe” can have an impact on your life in the Year of God’s Word.
