LIFE LESSONS FROM THE BOOK OF MATTHEW 21:21 (NIV)


"Jesus replied, "Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and it will be done."





10 KEYS ABOUT DOUBT  THAT WILL STIR YOUR FAITH .




1. Doubt - will stop you from taking the right steps , that ought to be taken. Luke 24:38 (NIV)"He said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds?".

Take your stand . you can't be in between .1 Kings 18:21(NIV)"Elijah went before the people and said, "How long will you waver between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow him; but if Baal is God, follow him." But the people said nothing."
3. Anytime you fall short of the word , you doubt God .Key build on the word and erase your doubts. Scripture says in the book of Colossi-ans 3:16 "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord." Anything less , leads to doubt .

7. Doubt is an enemy showing you the wrong picture of the real you .2 Cor 4:18 (NIV)"So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal."
