NO DOUBTS IN THE LIGHT

October 4

NO DOUTBS IN THE LIGHT

Psalms 4:6 There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? Lord, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.

Does it seem that the screaming of this skeptic world is getting so loud that it has become difficult to hear the voice of God? Does it also seem that even among believers, the voice of certainty of God’s care is fading, giving way to doubt and self-reliance? Is this be a sign of the great apostasy spoken of by the Apostle Paul?

Such times when public opinion mocks and ridicules the person of faith are not times for us to heed their criticisms. Such times are rather for us draw closer to God, to let His countenance shine upon us.

It is as we look upon Him that our countenance is lifted. It is as we meditate upon His gracious love and abundant care that our faith in Him grows. It is as we focus our face on His that that the sun can rise on our world of darkness and worry. It is as we hear His songs of comforting reassurance that the voice of the world is drowned out and made insignificant.

Rom 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
