Jesus said if you believe you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer. He also said, don’t be afraid, just believe. Set aside worldly reason and believe the Word. When you do, your eyes will be opened and your heart renewed. Overcome your doubt.
If you believe, you will get anything you ask for in prayer. Matthew 21:22
But Jesus paid no attention to what they said. He told the synagogue leader, Don’t be afraid; just believe. Mark 5:36
Faith means being sure of the things we hope for and knowing that something is real even if we do not see it. Faith is the reason we remember great people who lived in the past. It is by faith we understand that the whole world was made by God’s command so what we see was made by something that cannot be seen. Hebrews 11:1-3
But when you ask God, you must believe and not doubt. Anyone who doubts is like a wave in the sea, blown up and down by the wind. Such doubters are thinking two different things at the same time, and they cannot decide about anything they do. They should not think they will receive anything from the Lord. James 1:6-8
Show mercy to some people who have doubts. Take others out of the fire, and save them. Show mercy mixed with fear to others, hating even their clothes which are dirty from sin. Jude 22-23
