You’re on a need-to-know basis.

When we contemplate the sun rising every morning or the seasons changing during the year, it is easy to say that God sure is on the job. He sure is trustworthy, or we can rely on Him. When it comes to personal matters are we just as confident?

When Abraham and Sarah were promised by God that they would have a child, even in there old age, were they confident that it would take place? Sarah even laughed as if God were telling a little joke. When their confidence wavered, and they tried to produce an heir by way of a proxy, it didn't negate the fact that God had made a promise, and when God makes a promise, it will come to pass. The Bible is full of God saying what will take place, and we are on a need-to-know basis that He is always reliable.

This same reliability comes into play with what His Son Jesus said about being crucified and rising from the dead. To some that is even harder to handle than having a baby when your bio-clock has popped the main spring. Like Sarah and Abraham, just because it seems almost impossible to some, it doesn't make it any less possible when it comes to God. If producing a child from two has-beens was reliable and happened, it would only seems right to believe all His promises, like when Jesus said, "I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies, and everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die. Do you believe this?" John 11: 25, 26 NASB.

Do you believe the sun will come up tomorrow?

We need-to-know to rely on the One we need-to-know.
