Believing or Knowing

The aspect of believing is not the same as knowing. When we believe something, we have a measure of faith in it, as "I believe I am a winner". But to know something is completely different. If I know, for instance my name, I don't believe I am Rob Spurlock, I know I am. What if we had that mentality towards the things of God. If we could stand and profess that we "know that Jesus lives" instead of "I believe he lives". There is a very big difference in the two aspects. So let's not just believe in the promises of God but rather let's draw so close to God that we have no room in our spirit for doubt. That we may profess with all confidence as Job did "I know my Redeemer lives".
