Lyn Fite
When we lack faith in God, we doubt the sufficiency of His Word. We ask marketers and sociologists
for counsel when we want the church to grow. We ask experts in entertainment for guidance when
we want to enhance our worship. We ask professionals trained in secular psychology for healing
when we want to mend our broken lives. We ask management theorists for plans when we want to
effectively do the Lord’s work.
We consistently rely on the best and brightest ideas human wisdom can construct. Perhaps before
taking counsel of all these experts, we should have taken counsel from God.
Lacking faith in God leads to doubts in the inspiration, authority and sufficiency of the Bible. This
disregard for God’s Word leads to a disregard for God’s people. The same lack of faith that doubts
God’s competence to speak accurately in His Scripture also doubts God’s competence to work
effectively through His people.
Yet there is no pattern of righteousness apart from what we read in Scripture. Paying attention to
the prophetic Word brings the hope of a new day. Applying the pattern of Scripture to our lives is
essential if we want to follow the Savior. “Follow the pattern of the sound words that you have heard
from me,” Paul wrote in 2 Timothy 1:13, “in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.”
Rejecting the Word of God leaves one in darkness. As God warned in Isaiah 8:20, “To the teaching
and to the testimony! If they will not speak according to this word, it is because they have no dawn.”
Christian effectiveness requires knowing the Word of God, applying it in our own lives, and guiding
others to apply it in theirs. This approach is guaranteed to provide blessings in the Lord as He leads
us in righteousness.
