How to Overcome DoubtSample

Do you remember the story in the Bible where the father of the son who was demon-possessed comes up to Jesus? After speaking, the father replies to Jesus and says, "Lord, I believe, help my unbelief." He admitted to Jesus that he was struggling in his faith. Jesus worked with the faith that he had. When Peter was drowning, He called out to Jesus and Jesus helped him. Don't think for a moment that because you're doubting, the Lord will not listen to you. John the Baptist had questions –"Is Jesus the One?" Jesus didn't shame him for having those questions, he only reminded him of what He was doing. John thought that Jesus was going to deliver him and when He didn't, doubts arose within Him. Call on Jesus during these times. He will help you. Today's Challenge: Make a note or mental note of all the things that are causing you doubt. Identify the root causes, and spend some time bringing them to God in prayer.
