Real faith is based upon God’s Word. Real faith in the Word says, “If God says it is true, then it is.” Believing God is believing His Word! I like something Smith Wigglesworth said: “I can’t understand God the Father by feeling. I can’t understand the Lord Jesus Christ by feeling. I can understand God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ only by what the Word says about them.” He went on to say, “We need to get acquainted with God the Father through the Word. He is everything the Word says He is. We need to get acquainted with the Lord Jesus Christ through the Word. He is everything the Word says He is.” Too many people try to get acquainted with God through their feelings. When they feel well, they think God heard them. If they don’t feel well, they think He’s not hearing them. Their faith is based on their feelings.
