Spiritual Reckoning

Faith is simply believing that God is Who He says He is and that God will do (or has already done) what He says He will do. Faith is not believing something after you see it happen. I call this "spiritual reckoning." I am referring to Romans 6:11: "Reckon yourself to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God through Jesus Christ our Lord." We do not reckon something to be so after we see it happen, but before we see it happen. God rewards our reckoning. He delights to see us believing in His Word when it seems impossible
