TOO GOOD TO BELIEVE - My Sign Series 005

Hebrews 11:1, 3, KJV

"1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 3Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear".

That's the gospel - too good to believe! That's incredible - too good to believe. The Bible says, "why would you think it incredible (difficult or impossible) that God should raise the dead? (Acts 26:8).

There are many too good to believe in people's minds. Some of us have lesser too good to believe because of our journey with the Lord and how by faith and experience we have learnt that, " nothing shall be impossible for God to do". However to the heathen and those whose growth is impeded (though born again), many things are too good to believe to them. Those who things might be too good to believe excusably will however be those who'll be seeing their long seen signs for the very first time in a long while. Having lost hope in recovery and reoccurrence, it'll become too good to believe to them. 

When you see your signs again, there's a question you'll ask. It'll be, "is this really real?" It'll just be too good to believe. Jacob reasoned that it was too good to believe and he wouldn't have believed if not for the wagons he saw. It was then he said, let me go and see my son Joseph before I die". 

Genesis 45:25 - 28, KJV

"25 And they went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Canaan unto Jacob their father, 26 And told him, saying, Joseph is yet alive, and he is governor over all the land of Egypt. And Jacob's heart fainted, for he believed them not. 27 And they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said unto them: and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob their father revived:28 And Israel said, It is enough; Joseph my son is yet alive: I will go and see him before I die".

What he heard about Joseph being governor over all Egypt and being alive, it was too good to believe for him. It just became a too good news to him. I'm seeing some people in that picture. Your lost signs that shall be recovered you shall be too good to believe. You will doubt it and any who hears shall doubt and question its possibility with you also. Not that you're an express doubter, a failure or a faithless Christian. However, because of the sun you have for long seen shining, your faith has been tampered with and this might have buffeted you, condescending you to a place where you can no longer understand simply and immediately by faith. Yet, the Bible says, we understand (believe) by faith (Heb. 11:3). 

Those of you who have long seen your signs, listen to me. It'll come with the waters. Yet, it'll come flowing with the waters. It'll come with this new month. It'll come and not withold and when it comes, it'll be too good to believe. Look at Peter, Herod is planning executing him. James had been executed and though the church prays for Peter with zeal and all fervency, yet they doubted that God would be that fast to swing into action in saving him. His immediate rescue became a debate and a too good to believe news. How did I know? When Peter was delivered from his difficult and naturally impossible hole (in the prison), when he came knocking, nobody believed it was him. As a matter of fact, other disciples to whom his news of escape and arrival was broken called Rhoda mad - telling her it was Peter's angel she had seen. They saw their signs again and couldn't believe it. Peter who was taken was restored back to them but when this sign came back, it brought with it awe and unbelievability. It became too good to believe!

Acts 12:13-16, KJV

"13 And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to hearken, named Rhoda.14 And when she knew Peter's voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Peter stood before the gate.15 And they said unto her, Thou art mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel.16 But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened the door, and saw him, they were astonished".

Nothing more. Did you read that? It became, "and when they had seen him for themselves, they were astonished". You will be astonished. Your sign which you thought had gone and gone for good shall reoccur to you and you shall be astonished. God will throw you into shock and overwhelm you with surprises when your long gone spouse reunites with you or that lost thing comes back home. It will become too good to believe. It will become the gospel truth. It will become the news. It will become the testimony. I see you at the door soonest - opening it up to your lost but returning joy. I see a door opening ushering in your signs. I see a Rhoda at the gate telling you of it even before you chance upon it yourself. You gotta believe. Friends, believe. It is flesh and blood that'll appear to you and not an angel or the fellow's ghost. It will be reality and not a scam of any sort. 

CONFESSION/PRAYER: I receive the too good to believe news. My doubt shall be overridden as I receive my lost signs. Indeed, I'm made for signs and wonders. God is causing one!

BIBLE IN A YEAR: Isaiah 57:15-59:21; Philippians 1:1-26; Psalm 71:1-24; Proverbs 24:9-10
