Prove Him
“Prove Me” (Malachi 3:10).
Two simple words, but what a great challenge they offer!
Are you willing to take up the challenge today? Are you ready to prove the Lord in every aspect of life — practical, emotional, and spiritual? If you are, you will find that, unlike earthly supports, He will never let you down and is always worthy of your trust.
As you prove Him in the little, everyday things of life, you will find that your faith in Him grows. Reading the accounts of those in Scripture who proved Him will also help to increase your confidence. Take for instance the stories of Abraham, Joseph, Moses, Joshua, Gideon, Nehemiah, and Queen Esther, just to name a few. And of those “Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions…” (Hebrews 11:33).
Now it’s your turn. He is the same Lord that they had, and the promise in the rest of the opening verse is, “Prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of Hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it” (Malachi 3:10).
