FAITH CAPSULE:<\/i><\/b> As a believer, dwelling in doubt is sinking from faith.<\/p>\n
Matthew 11<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
It was John that baptized Jesus. It is written, \u201cThen Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan to be baptized by him\u201d (Matthew 3:13)<\/i><\/b> John the Baptist bears witness of Jesus, \u201c\u2026Behold The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, \u201cBehold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! This is He of whom I said, \u2018After me comes a Man who is preferred before me, for He was before me.\u201d\u2019 (John 1:29-30)<\/i><\/b> John also exalted Jesus when he stated that, \u201cHe who comes from above is above all; he who is of the earth is earthly and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all.\u201d (John 3:31)<\/i><\/b> Despite all that John the Baptist knew about Jesus, when he was in the prison of his life, he doubted Jesus. John wanted to know what he already knew. Remember you have heard it all and you have seen it all; if you will hold on to all that you have known you will depart from doubt and not dwell in it.<\/p>\n
As a believer, dwelling in doubt is sinking from faith. Doubt is destructive to stand in faith. Also, the ability to be able to hear, see and turn away from doubt can is what every believer needs to hold to in the journey of life. Having heard and seen so much of the power that is in the name of the Jesus, are you still in doubt? John the Baptist doubted Jesus. The Bible recorded, \u201cAnd when John had heard in prison about the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples and said to Him, \u201cAre You the Coming One, or do we look for another?\u201d (Matthew 11:2-3)<\/i><\/b> Was it the prison life that caused John to doubt? Is there any representative of prison in your life that is causing doubt of what Jesus can do?<\/p>\n
Jesus\u2019 response to John\u2019s doubt speaks to all believers. Jesus stated, \u201c\u2026Go and tell John the things which you hear and see: The blind see and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up and the poor have the gospel preached to them. And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me.\u201d (Mathew 11:4-6)<\/i><\/b> Where there is doubt faith has a tendency not to stand. Hebrew 11:6, \u201c\u2026But without faith it is impossible to please Him\u2026\u201d <\/i><\/b>Do not allow your present situation to dictate to you what your God can do or what he cannot do. At all time, when doubt shows like a wave, speak positive and not negative. Remember, \u201c\u2026For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.\u201d (Matthew 12:34)<\/i><\/b> Disappoint your doubt; speak what is right, do not speak negative.<\/p>\n
