The word of God is alive and powerful, sharper than any sword, but the question is never whether God is on the throne; it is whether you believe He performs His word in you. It is one thing to believe He is close by, and another world entirely to believe He is actually leading you. You will never walk on water as long as you are afraid to get your feet wet, and you cannot stand back and watch the word perform for you like a show. Your steps are ordered of the Lord, so take the step, do not have a discussion at the foot of the mountain.
