True Faith
Why is faith in the one true God so important to our
daily walk? God makes great restoration promises to His people, but in Jeremiah
29:5-7 He says: 5 “Build houses and settle down; plant
gardens and eat what they produce. 6 Marry and have sons and daughters; find
wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage, so that they too may
have sons and daughters. Increase in number there; do not decrease. 7 Also,
seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile.
Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper.”
He lets them know they will not be returning to their
homeland. Many times we want things to be “just the way they were”. But God has
other plans which are better for us. We need to have faith in that.
And without faith it is impossible to
please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and
that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. - Hebrews
11:6
