FAITH CAPSULE:<\/strong> Do you know His name or do you know about His name?<\/p>\n

1 Samuel 13<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is written, \u201cThe name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe. (Proverbs 18:10)<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0 Do you know His name or do you know about His name? There is a different about knowing His name and knowing about His name. The name of the Lord is Mighty God; the all sufficient, and that settles it. Those who know His name (not those who know about His name) will put their trust and Hope in Him. With lack of knowledge, many do not trust and hope in Him.<\/p>\n

Saul is an example of one that trusted God but not able to hope in God. At a time of war against Philistines, he could not wait for Samuel as instructed before offering a burnt offering disobediently. Bible recorded Saul\u2019s trust but not holding hope in God. 1 Samuel 13:<\/em><\/strong>7-12<\/em><\/strong>, <\/em><\/strong>\u201c\u2026<\/em><\/strong>As for Saul, he was still in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling. 8\u00a0<\/sup>Then he waited seven days, according to the time set by Samuel. But Samuel did not come to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him. 9\u00a0<\/sup>So Saul said, \u201cBring a burnt offering and peace offerings here to me.\u201d And he offered the burnt offering. 10\u00a0<\/sup>Now it happened, as soon as he had finished presenting the burnt offering, that Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might greet him. And Samuel said, \u201cWhat have you done?\u201d Saul said, \u201cWhen I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that you did not come within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered together at Michmash, 12\u00a0<\/sup>then I said, \u2018The Philistines will now come down on me at Gilgal, and I have not made supplication to the Lord.\u2019 Therefore I felt compelled, and offered a burnt offering.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> Without doubt, Saul trusted but could not hold in hope.
\nAre you a modern Saul? Are you one in the church with trust to pray for positive over issue but stepped out after church with negative confession concerning issue that was prayed for?
\nTrusting and hoping in the name of God which you know will work for you. Trust and hope to call \u00a0on Him for healing and He will answer to heal you.
\nYou call Him with understanding and knowledge not because you hear about Him from man. Know it that God is the healing healer; the only God that reverses the irreversible and the God that makes a way where there is no way. Trust and hope in Him to be seeking. The Psalmist stated \u201cFor you, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You\u201d. (Psalm 9:10)<\/em><\/strong> David recognized God as God that does not forsake those who seek Him.
\nWhich God are you calling concerning your challenge? Jeremiah 17:7<\/em><\/strong> buttressed the evidence to trust and hope stating, \u201cBlessed is the man who trust in e Lord, and whose hope is the Lord.\u201d <\/em><\/strong>Trust and hope in Him?<\/p>\n
