Too Good to Not Believe

Brandon Lake

Mark 9:23

"If You can?" Jesus said to him. "Everything is possible for one who believes."

I Believe for Healing — Faith That Expects

The father in Mark 9 brought his son who had been tormented since childhood, and his faith was honest enough to admit its own limits: if You can do anything, help us. Jesus pivots: if You can? Everything is possible for one who believes. The question is not what God is able to do — the question is whether the one asking will believe it. Too good to not believe is the declaration of a faith that has decided to believe the gospel is as good as it claims to be. Not hedging, not qualifying, not reducing the promises of God to the size of what seems realistic. But actually believing — that God heals, that He restores, that He does immeasurably more than what we ask or imagine. This is not a prosperity gospel or a claim that faith guarantees specific outcomes. It is the refusal to make God smaller than Scripture declares Him to be. It is the choice to pray as though the God you are praying to actually can and will act.

Bring one specific request to God today with genuine expectancy — not as a formula but as honest, believing faith.
