Before the wall fell that divided the city of east and west Berlin as well East and West Germany, someone had spray painted on it the following. “This wall will fall. Beliefs become reality.” A US President wrote in response to those words, “Yes, the wall will fall. For it cannot withstand faith; it cannot withstand truth. The wall cannot withstand freedom.” The wall did eventually come down.
Notice what came before the wall was torn down … belief. We all have “stuff” in our lives that needs to be erased and exchanged with Jesus. But do we want our lives to be better? The answer to this question might sound obvious. It’s not though. Some like living behind those walls. They don’t really believe their lives can be better, even though they profess Jesus as God and Savior.
For those who you do want those walls down, those repeated sinful behaviors removed, do you believe Jesus can do it? He says in John 10:10 that He came to not only bring eternal life, but an abundant life now. Belief takes action, the daily usage of your biblical tools. You can say you believe all you want. You actually believe when you put those beliefs into action.
So, what do you really believe?
