After the feeding of the 5,000 in John chapter 6, those mesmerized by Jesus power asked, “What must we do, to do the works of God?” Jesus answer was, oh, so interesting. His response was, "This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent."
The work of God is to believe. This is the root that brings the fruit. It is the defining difference between ordinary and extraordinary. Jairus (Luke 8) and Abraham (Genesis 22) demonstrate the difference that faith makes. Their example begs the question, what are we believing Jesus for?
