Recently I received a few mails around the subject of faith and trust in God…I’d like to share them as well as some of my thoughts from the scripture.
What do you do when your faith fails you? When you feel like you have put all your hope in God, but yet he doesn’t come through for you and you feel like has forsaken you? What do you do?
You don’t want to attempt a life without God because the thought alone is repulsive but at the same time you don’t want to trust so much again, with hopes and dreams and goals...what do you do?”
“It then scares me because I have a dream and a vision I want to fulfill in my and I get scared because on my own I can’t achieve it...In a moment where I feel like God has left me, I start to wonder if he will leave me again, and in doing so at times I’m reluctant to go for the impossible....if you get what I mean?
I’m also quite skeptical on the 'hearing from God front' coz there are times where I think I am, but situations tell me otherwise...How does one hear from God?”
It is at this point that you must fight to remain in the spirit, because if you don't you become double minded on a matter. This means believing God when the situations are right, and doubting when the situation is contrary. The enemy wants you in this state because you are not spiritually productive in this instance.
Look at James 1:6 But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7 That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does.
To avoid getting into a double minded state, you must focus on His word, His promise on your life, despite the contrary situations. Walking with faith filled people is vital as they will fan into flame God's word in you. Walking with doubters will fuel a double minded state, which leads to no results.
I trust that this improves your perspective in this season. He will make a way where there seems to be no way!
Remain in His Grip!
