Happy September!
I know its been years since I have posted, but I am back and better than ever! Still going through my trials, but trusting and depending on God. I hope you all have been well!
For the month of September, I want us all to concentrate on praying for our unbelief. Did she just say unbelief? Yes I did. But you may say what is she talking about? I believe in God. A friend of mine pointed out to me just how much unbelief I truly have when we were talking about a situation I was going through. And I sat back and thought, "Wow, I really do have unbelief." It was an ugly truth. Because the word of God clearly says that without faith it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6).
The dictionary defines unbelief as, "the state or quality of not believing." Unbelief also represents two Greek words,"apeitheia," which means disobedience and "apistia," which means distrust. So when we exhibit unbelief we are not believing God, we are being disobedient and also distrusting Him.
As a single woman we always face doubts about if we are beautiful, will we ever meet the right one God has for us, will we ever get married, will we ever become a mother? The enemy brings so much doubts to our minds, that we actually start to believe each of these lies and exhibit unbelief.
God wants us to believe Him. You might say, I'm a Christian of course I believe in God, but God isn't asking you to believe in Him, but to BELIEVE HIM! Believing God is so critical to demolish these strongholds that the devil places on us. Strongholds that make you believe you are not beautiful, strongholds that make you doubt if you will ever get married and strongholds that make you believe that situations in your life will not work out!
But you can't just believe in Him to be free from your stronghold. You must believe Him! Believe He can do what He says He can do. Believe you can do what He says you can do. Believe He is who He says He is. And believe you are who He says you are!
So this month let's abolish this unbelief and pray daily for God to help us with our unbelief. Make a list of things in which you doubt whether it be your beauty, your relationship, being single, financial needs. Let's pray on one accord this month and demolish this unbelief!
"Father, so often I feel like the boy's father who first exclaimed, "I do believe!" then in a flood of sincerity cried out, "Help me overcome my unbelief!: (Mark 9:24) Please help me to overcome my own unbelief, Lord, so I can start taking You at Your Word."
