So let me ask you this.

Do you struggle to trust in God’s promises, presence, power, and provision in the midst of challenges, circumstances, and celebrations?

If so, you’re not alone.

But that also means that you should not use it as an excuse to build a wall and claim your territory here on earth your way.

And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. ~ Hebrews 11:6

Notice that faith is not just a nice accessory for your life, but a crucial component of your relationship with God.

The key word is relationship!

But then turn the tables. A lot of times, we are harsh on ourselves more so than we are on God.

• I can do better at being a mom or dad.
• I didn’t do my best.
• I should not have spoken those words.

Stop doubting yourself so God can stir your faith.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Stir your faith!

One thing I believe we harness is that God is an equal. And not in the direct since, but because our earthly minds can’t wrap our brains to comprehend any differently.

Faith – Walk by faith, not by sight.

If you were to take away all your senses, and still believe…that’s faith.

God can do anything at any point, but we judge based on our time on our points.

And I don’t think we mean to do this directly that God is an equal. We do it indirectly. But this thought, this idea then becomes what stifles our faith and can eventually extinguish our faith.

God deserves better from you and me.

If you want to experience that the best is yet to come, you must stir your faith!

As a follower of Jesus, you don’t have to let your doubts lead your day or define your destiny.

Instead, stir your faith by remembering God’s character and His promises. He will not let you down. But consider that it’s by His standards, not yours. So what you want is not always what you get.

Look back on God’s faithfulness for you in the past. What do you have to celebrate and be thankful for? When we review God’s presence in our lives, our doubts can be radically transformed, drawing us to know Him more. Also, it gives us the opportunity to praise Him for His goodness and power that transcends our circumstances and reminds us that He is not limited by our doubts or fears. Hallelujah!

Respond to His invitation to pray and seek His will for you every day.

When you need to stir your faith, you can turn to God in prayer and seek His will, His guidance, and His comfort. You can also ask Him to show you any areas of unbelief or disobedience in your life, and to help you align your heart with His purpose and priorities.

PRAYER: May God bless you and keep you, and make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you (Numbers 6:24-26).

“Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!“
