Doubting Your Doubt

Doubting Your Doubt…

Zacharias was performing his priestly duties in the Holy Place inside the Temple when an angel of the Lord appeared and told him that he and his wife would have a son in their old age.

His response was, “How can I be sure?” That’s a good question. How can we be sure about anything? If we can’t be sure of anything, then we can’t be sure about not being sure because doubt requires faith.

If you doubt, then ultimately, you’re trusting in your doubt, your reasoning, and your own judgment. Can you really trust yourself, your feelings, or your reasoning? Isaiah 55:8-9 tells us that God’s ways are higher than our ways.

So, either way, faith or doubt, you have to trust something or someone. Doesn’t it make sense to trust God whose ways are above you? Because if you’re afraid to really believe in something, you’ll never live for anything.

If you’re afraid to trust in what’s good, you’ll trust in what’s not good – you’ll trust in doubt. So why put your faith in doubt? Stop putting faith in doubt, and put it where it belongs, with God.

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. 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. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.  James 1:5-8

Today, start practicing holy doubt ” start doubting all your doubts ” and anything that is not of God.

God says, instead of doubting me, doubt your doubts. They have so little power, and I have the power to destroy them in second. Pray to me.

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,
