Each morning we awake and go about our day based on one of two beliefs: Either we believe in God and our every action is motivated by this central value, or we do not really believe and our actions reflect so.
You can be a believer yet act as though there is no God. Whenever you fret over life circumstances, you immediately demonstrate unbelief. Whenever you move out of fear or anxiety, you believe a lie about God's nature.
Each day your actions affirm or convict you of your belief system. It reveals who the central focus of your life really is-you or God. It reveals who you place your ultimate trust in-you or God. It is one of the great paradoxes for believers. One day we can believe Him to move mountains. The next day we can question His very existence.
- Peter believed God and walked on water.
- A sick woman touched the hem of His garment and was healed.
- A Canaanite woman believed and freed her daughter from demon-possession.

Lord,
My prayer this week is to take my knowledge and be a doer that acts on my beliefs and faith.

Lord,
In what will be the busiest month of the year, please help me to believe in you to help me resolve each trial.
Lord, I thank You, along with my brothers earlier, for being Who You are and treating us all with mercy and grace. Please help us all to be aware of You today as we go through our day. Help me not to be stingy with the Truth of Your amazing love for your kids! Thanks for these guys who share the Faith that I have.
Worthy, worthy, worthy of ALL blessings, honor and praise. God, may we never lose sight of you in the midst of life. I love the honest confession of "Lord, I believe, help my unbelief." Praise you that we do not find condemnation when we come to you in honesty and trust.
Continue to expand our faith and trust in you.
in Christ's great name,
er
