CONFIDENCE IN GOD (1)

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. Confidence

a) The definition of the word confidence according to Webster's dictionary is "faith or belief that one will act in a right, proper, or effective way." That definition shows the importance of confidence in the life of a follower of Jesus Christ.

b) People that know the Lord should live differently than the rest of the world. The Bible speaks of this throughout the pages of God's word. This started all the way back in the Old Testament when the Israelites were told to act in a way different than the rest of the cultures at that time. There were to have this type of confidence in the Lord and act and live in an effective way.

Confidence in God

Psalms 44:6  
For not in my bow do I trust, nor can my sword save me.

Proverbs 3:26  
For the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being caught.

Proverbs 14:6   
A scoffer seeks wisdom in vain, but knowledge is easy for a man of understanding.

Galatians 5:10  
I have confidence in the Lord that you will  take no other view, and  the one who is troubling you will bear the penalty, whoever he is. 


The End ...
