Matthew 28:6 NASB1995 He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said. Come, see the place where He was lying.

Why do we doubt the words of God? The faith of man has been so underwhelming that if it wasn't for God's mercy I doubt we would be here today.

The women showed up on the third day at the tomb and were surprised that He wasn't there. The Angel stated "He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said."

Just as He said. When God says it then it will happen. You need not doubt it or question it. If it is His word then it is fact. No man/woman will ever be 100% accurate or factual with all their words, and therefore, they will disappoint you and let you down. However, Jesus is the Word in flesh and is the Truth. He is God who cannot lie. Just as He said, so it is!

Matthew 17:22-23 NASB1995 And while they were gathering together in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men; and they will kill Him, and He will be raised on the third day.” And they were deeply grieved.

According to the Word of Jesus, when they came on the third day they should have been expecting Him to be raised.

We look at this and wonder why were they not expecting it. However, Jesus also said, John 16:33 NASB1995 These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world.”

Yet, we question and worry and wonder why we suffer in this world. We should expect it. However, in our expectation, we should have peace and courage because Jesus said, " I have overcome the world."

We need to realize, "Just as He said," so it is!

Jesus also said in John 14:3 NASB1995 If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also.

He is coming again. "Just as He said."

So when you struggle with your faith remember if He says it, it will happen!

Just as He said, Come see!
