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 overcome my own unbelief, Lord, so I can start taking You at Your Word.
I pray that the eyes of my heart may be enlightened in order that I may know the hope to which You have called me, the riches of Your glorious inheritance in the saints, and Your incomparably great power to us who believe!
(Ephesians 1:18-19).
As You did for the jailer who received salvation through the witness of Paul and Silas, fill me with joy when I choose to believe You. (Acts 16:34).
(taken from Praying God’s Word Day By Day by Beth Moore, page 6)
“Nothing on earth compares to the strength God is willing to interject into lives caught in the act of believing.” (Beth Moore)
May you be caught in the act of believing God!

So nice to have you visit today. We all need the reminder to believe God anew & not waver. May you have a great week!
I’ve always thought that father was one of the most honest people in the Bible. And of course, God honored his request. Thanks for sharing!
So true, Kim. It is in admitting our shortcomings that we find He supplies us with what we need. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
