Big God: what happens when we trust him

The Story

Faith is trust. It is confidence in the power and goodness of God. But how can you know that He is trustworthy, that He is big enough to deserve your faith? By seeing how He has shown Himself faithful in the lives of people just like you. The stories of men and women who put their trust in God at critical, pivotal moments of their lives fill the pages of the Bible. These people were not perfect, but when it really mattered, they chose to trust the big God who knew and loved them. And once they did, these men and women of faith found out exactly what happens when God's people put their faith in Him. The Bible issues this challenge to anyone who longs for a closer walk with God: 'Be imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises' (Heb. 6:12). Big God will introduce you to some everyday people who trusted God's promises and saw those promises fulfilled. By looking at their lives you will see that throughout history God has shown Himself faithful to His promises and His people--time and time again. You will learn that He is worthy of your trust today, and that no matter how overwhelming your problems, heartaches and circumstances appear to be, God is bigger.
