Put God to the Test Oh, put God to the test and see how kind He is! See for yourself the way His mercies shower down on all who trust in Him (Psalm 34:8). Sam wanted to receive Christ, but he was reluctant. Somehow, he just could not bring himself to make that necessary commitment of the will to exercise his faith and receive Christ. Because of unfortunate experiences in his youth, he had a distorted view of the goodness of God. I encouraged Him to make his commitment, but he still hesitated. Finally, I turned to that wonderful promise of our Scripture for today and asked him to read it. As he read, the Holy Spirit gave him the faith to believe that he could trust God. Put God to the test. Taste and see how good and kind He is. As you prepare to write your exam put him to test and hold on to that faith and you will see the goodness and kindness of God in your result. Sam discovered that day, and for the rest of his life, the faithfulness and the goodness and the kindness of God. Do you have reservations, uncertainties, fears about the trustworthiness of God? If so, I encourage you to place your trust in Him, and you will find, as millions have found, and as I have found, that God is good, faithful, and true. Similarly, you and I can put God to the test and find a friendly haven in the midst of enemy territory. More important, perhaps, is the certainty we can have that God does hear and answer our prayers - in situations where He and He alone knows the end from the beginning and can provide deliverance. How vital to the supernatural life to know that we have immediate access to the God of the universe, the very one who alone can guarantee victory and deliverance.
