📜 “Now the LORD was gracious to Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did for Sarah what he had promised. Sarah became pregnant and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the very time God had promised him. Abraham gave the name Isaac to the son Sarah bore him. When his son Isaac was eight days old, Abraham circumcised him, as God commanded him. Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him. Sarah said, “God has brought me laughter, and everyone who hears about this will laugh with me.” And she added, “Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would nurse children? Yet I have borne him a son in his old age.””
— Genesis 21:1-7 NIV

If God has spoken, we must believe that He will fulfill what He has said. God keeps His word and performs what He has spoken. As it is written, "The righteous shall live by faith," we too must live by faith. As we see in the example of the centurion, Jesus amazed at the faith in His word. The centurion believed that it was enough for Jesus simply to speak the word.
Therefore, what we must consider is what God has told us in His word. Then, we must walk in cooperation with Him by believing in His word. When we obey God in faith, we present ourselves for Him to accomplish the work He desires to carry out in our lives. God's way of working surpasses human thinking and calculation. Therefore, we must trust in Him.
God speaks, and He fulfills what He has spoken. He is faithful and cannot lie. When we think about what He did for Hannah, we see that God heard her prayer and gave her a child according to His promise.
Jesus asked His disciples, "Who do you say that I am?" It is important how we believe and understand who Jesus is. Our knowledge and faith regarding Him influence our relationship with Him and our life of faith.
