“Faith is a living, daring confidence in God’s grace, so sure and certain that a believer would stake his life on it a thousand times.” Martin Luther

In the book of Daniel three servants of God, on pain of death, refused to bow down to their captor king. They boldly explained that God was able to deliver them; that He would; but even if He didn’t, they would bow down only to God. Our confidence in God isn’t that He will always give us what we ask, but that He will never give us anything short of His goodness. Such confidence promotes a bold faith not in our prayers, but in the loving Father who answers them.

“Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” Heb.4.16  Conversations Within” ts 9/20/2019
