Too Many?

We tend to quickly take the credit for anything good in our life. We also have a bad habit of blaming God, or others, for anything negative. God knows this.

That’s why when God was preparing to miraculously deliver His people from their enemies He went to great lengths to ensure that they knew He was the author of their rescue.

Make no mistake. God can just as easily deliver you with an army of ten as an army of 100,000. It makes no difference to Him, except that, a smaller army brings God greater glory.

Our tendency is to strive to gather the largest army possible and then claim at least partial credit for its success. That is why God will inevitably bring us to a position where we cannot trust in ourselves or in our resources, but in Him. He will strip away everything in our life that clamors for our trust. God does not need our resources to do a great work. What He is looking for is our faith. When we have plentiful supplies, we tend to assume that faith is not absolutely necessary. When we have few resources, we have nothing else but our faith.

Could it be that in recent days God has been stripping away from your life the resources you have been trusting in that are weakening your faith in Him?
