Why Do You Doubt?

Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, "Lord, save us!
We are perishing!" But He said to them, "Why are you fearful, O you of
little faith?" Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and
there was a great calm. (Matthew 8:25-26)

It is by faith that God's mighty power is released into the life of a
Christian (Heb 11:33-35). The fact that you have doubts indicates that
you do not know God as you should. If your prayer life is infiltrated
with doubts, you have denied yourself the greatest, single avenue of
power that God has made available to you. Without faith it is
impossible t please God (Heb 11:6). God never comforts you in your
doubt. Jesus consistently rebuked those who would not believe Him. He
had revealed enough of Himself for His disciples to have believed Him in
their time of need.

God wants to build your understanding of Him until your faith is
sufficient to trust and obey Him in each situation (Mark 9:23-25). The
moment you turn to Him with a genuine commitment to rid yourself of
doubt, God will match your doubt with a revelation of Himself that can
convince you of His faithfulness. When Thomas doubted, Jesus revealed
Himself to him in such a way that every doubt vanished (John 20:27).
You can only resolve your lack of faith in God's presence. He must
reveal Himself in such a ways that any doubt you might have is removed.
Jesus did this with His disciples. He involved them in a consistent,
growing relationship with Himself. Jesus took them through teaching, to
small miracles, to large miracles, and to the resurrection. Jesus knew
that the redemption of the world rested on His disciples' believing
Him. What does God want to do in the lives of those around you that
wait upon your trust in Him and the removal of your doubts?
