Counted Right
-
Romans 4:3 says, “For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness.”
Abraham was a very good man, yet he was not perfect. Abraham was a man of great faith even trusting God to sacrifice his son, yet Abraham still had times when his faith was weak. Through all of Abraham’s struggles and times of weakness, God counted him as righteous because of his faith.
We must strive to live righteous and good lives, yet we have made mistakes in our lives. When we have true faith in God, He counts is as righteous even though we have made mistakes. When we trust God and trust what He has commanded, He counts us as righteous. Yet many times the problem is that we believe God, but we don’t have true faith in Him. We must strive to have a true faith so that He counts us as righteous.
