The God of Promise and the Life of Faith
(Wheaton, Ill.: Crossway Books, 2001), 93
Our faith and God’s faithfulness
God is not a prisoner of our faith, but of his own perfection. Faith obligates God to act not because it is a magical incantation that can be used to control God but because faith in God’s promises calls attention to God’s own faithfulness. The assurance upon which faith is based is the glory of God’s character, not the power of our believing.
