DOUBT

DOUBT

JAMES 1:5-8 

“But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind” (Vs. 6)

   To be doubtful is to be double-minded about God. To have a double mind is to believe God 50/50 and not totally. This is trying to plant something else in one's mind while pretending to trust in God. Doubt is a product of fear and it is the opposite of faith (2 Tim. 1:6). Without faith, no man will be able to receive from God (Hebrews 11:6). We are usually in fear because we do not know God and His word. It is our contact with the word of God that builds faith in us (Rom. 10:17).

    A doubtful Christian is a double-minded person. The Bible says that such people will receive nothing. That is why instead of doubting God as a child of God, you should build up your faith continually. You can do this by regularly studying the word of God, listening to messages of faith and reading books written by men of God to inspire faith in you.

    Every time you ask anything in faith, you commit God to answering your prayers (Mark 9:23) which He is always glad to do. Henceforth, your prayers will always be answered in Jesus' Name. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, teach me to always ask and receive.
