Faith (Instagram)

What has God promised you? That's the key. Lack of faith will cause you to keep your eyes on everyone and everything else but the Promise Keeper in Jesus. Uncertainty can drive you to act out of haste just to MAKE things work, instead of acting on faith to ensure things work! Ever wonder why people change career paths 10 times? Or try "new" things to MAKE life work? Date multiple people to find the "right" one? Oftentimes we lose faith because (1) we covet what others have, that wasn't promised to us (2) we aren't sure what God has promised (3) we haven't spent time hearing the studying His Word to stand on what God has promised us. If He promised it, we should settle it in our hearts. If He promised He'd keep your marriage, then settle in your heart that divorce is not an option. If He promised He'd save you and your house, don't be moved by the wayward child. If He promised you a car, don't be comfortable with riding the bus forever. If He promised you total health, don't be discouraged by the Doctor's report. If He promised you'd be an entrepreneur, don't covet someone else's company nor grow weary in doing well. When we believe right, we begin to live right. Faith in God's promises will move you to pray for your rocky marriage, speak life into your wayward child, get a job and start the process of looking for a car, see yourself whole and healed, and begin research on the company He's birthed in you! Abraham's proof of belief? He never wavered, He believed God, and then have glory to Him!
