DRIVE OUT DOUBT AND UNBELIEF!!
II Corinthians 10:4-5 "For the weapons of our warfare are not
physical weapons of flesh and blood, but they are mighty before God for the
overthrow and destruction of strongholds. Inasmuch as we refute arguments and
theories and reasonings and every proud and lofty thing that sets itself up
against the true knowledge of God; and we lead every thought and purpose away
captive into the obedience of Christ."
What is the biggest hindrance in our lives that keeps us from living the
Supernatural life that God desires for us to live? Doubt and unbelief! What
keeps faith from operating in our lives? Our wavering trust in the Lord. James
1: 6-7 says that we must operate in faith with no wavering, no hesitating, no
doubting, and no unbelief. A person who wavers, hesitates, doubts, or has
unbelief is like a wave out at sea that is tossed hither and thither by the
wind. It goes on to say, "Does such a person believe that he will receive
anything from the Lord?" If you can't fully trust the Lord, don't
expect to Him to bless you.
Doubt and unbelief are our greatest enemies to a victorious life! Take your
burdens to the Lord and leave it in His hands. If the enemy tries (and most
times he will) to convince you to pick your burdens back up, immediately repent
of such a thought, and give your burdens back to the Lord. Leave it there and
trust Him to fight your battle. Don't doubt Him! He doesn't need your help! He
simply wants you to Trust Him. To trust Him to fight and win this battle for
you. You must take your thoughts captive and turn them around to a positive
statement of trust in the Lord God. You must conquer doubt and unbelief. This
trial you are going through is only your training ground. This trial that you
are going through is not to destroy you, but to strengthen you. TRUST HIM!
Our minds must be renewed! Renewed every day, so practice. Remember how
you practiced saying your speeches for Easter? You practiced until you could
recite it without looking at the paper? Well, practice every day confessing the
Word of God and cast down doubt until it takes root in your soul. Step on doubt
and unbelief! Declare I will trust God no matter if my back is against the wall.
Take the Authority over the enemy in the Name of Jesus Christ! Command
things to line up according to God's plan! Don't give place to the devil in any
area of your life! Fill yourself up to overflowing with the Word of God. Your
flesh and your reasonings must die! Remember you can't mix faith and trust, with
doubt and unbelief! Like oil and water, they don't mix!!! If doubt has a place
in your life, faith cannot operate. Faith cannot operate with reasoning. Faith
operates with complete trust in God and Who He Is! Faith is believing when
common sense tells you not to. YOU MUST BELIEVE!
Doubt comes in the moment you let a little thought of 'Is it real?' "Can I
do this?" 'Will God really be there for me?' enter your mind. Where
do these thoughts come from? God? NO! The devil? YES! The enemy is the one who
causes you to start questioning God's promises. The Word says, If thou can
believe all things are possible with God; I can do all things through Christ
Jesus who strengthens me; God will never leave me nor forsake me. So you see
it's the enemy that constantly asks you those questions. The devil knows if he
can get you to doubt with by asking you those simple questions, he has won. It's
a new year, time out for all that old foolish thinking. It's time that we rise
up and take our rightful place as a child of God and say 'I will trust Him, and
will not doubt! We need to declare these statements out loud daily. We need to
declare them as often as we can!!!! Like taking medicine, you may need to
repeat them once every 4 hours, or as needed. YOU MUST TRUST HIM!
Remember the devil was defeated when Christ died for us and rose on the third
day. He can only operate when we let him! Arise! Arise right now above the
things, which have held you captive! Arise, Arise now and take authority and be
victorious in Jesus over all the enemies of your soul! DRIVE OUT ALL DOUBT AND
UNBELIEF!!
