I have been opportune to actually witness cases whereby people believe God and at one point of their life, they actually find it hard again to believe God any longer. From my little experience in God, I have actually come to discover that believing God is not only limited to what we hear from other people.
It is majorly what we experience in our own lives. Most of the time as I reflect about life, I actually discovered that one of the reason to believe God is how he works quietly in our hearts.
I personally I have experience it before. There were seasons in my life that I feel peace deep within me in the midst of trouble and I am so sure that that come did not come from me but came from God alone.
The Bible says in Philippians 4:7, “And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
Not even only that, another strong reason why I have come to discover that we should believe God is how he was able to actually order and beautify the world around us. Everything have its own place and purposes. Everything God created was good and not only good, it has it's own purposes and agenda.
Psalm 19:1 says, “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.” When I look at nature, I see evidence of a Creator who is powerful and wise. It is hard for me to believe that all of this came from nothing.
Then lastly, I personally believe God because of what he said in his word. I have heard people always say that the bible is an ordinary book. Well I did not believe that. The bible is not an ordinary book. The bible have a whole lot to teach us and to guide us.
There are times I have read a particular verse of the scripture that I know to a particularly situation I am facing and it changes. In 2 Timothy 3:16, it says, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.”
I have seen God changes the lives of men and even me myself, I have seen him changes me. It is too difficult for me to deny not seeing God. Very difficult. God is real and we must continue to believe him.
