By _Etyang_ _Richard_
*Theme* : Pursuing God
( John 17:3)
*Topic* : Communing With God ( Hinderances to prayer) The question of Doubt
*Reading* : James 1:5-8 ( ESV)
6"But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind."
*Luganda*
_Yakobo_ _1:5-8_
6"Naye asabenga mu kukkiriza, nga taliiko ky'abuusabuusa: kubanga abuusabuusa afaanana ng'ejjengo ery'ennyanja eritwalibwa empewo ne lisuukundibwa."
*Swahili*
_Yakobo_ _1:5-8_
[6]Ila na aombe kwa imani, pasipo shaka yo yote; maana mwenye shaka ni k**a wimbi la bahari lililochukuliwa na upepo, na kupeperushwa huku na huku."
Doubt is a quiet suspicion on the ability of God. You are questioning the ability of God. You are uncertain if God will do what you asked for. You actually don't believe God.
You are saying " I am not sure whether God is faithful. When a man doubts, it is an assault on the personality of God. When you come to God in the place of prayer and you doubt, you are simply telling God, I am not sure whether you are faithful and true to what you say." You are distrusting God.
Let him ask in faith. Ask with a simple heart of assurance.
Every time you doubt, you are being tossed. Your heart is in between. You will not be able to get anything from God because you are undecided and unstable in your mind. Be sure. *James:1:6(LT)*
[6] But when you ask him, be sure that you really expect him to tell you, for a doubtful mind will be as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind"
Be sure of your faith, have undivided loyalty don't be unstable in everything you do. Such people cannot make their mind. They don't know who to trust. God is ready to answer your prayer but you must do it with a clear heart with a simple faith. Come believing. Believe that God is able to do what you are asking him to do.
When you are asking in faith, you are putting God to work.
What has rendered your prayer impotent?
If God does not help you, then who can help you?
