At some point in our Christian walk we must stop begging God and stop allowing fear to rattle our our lives. Faith is the ability and gift to survive in trusting God’s hand during difficult times. Did you know that God is not moved by need? He is moved by faith. He is touched by our need but He responds to our faith. James 1:6-7 says, “When you ask for something, don’t have any doubts. A person who has doubts is like a wave that is blown by the wind and tossed by the sea. A person who has doubts shouldn’t expect to receive anything from the Lord.” So, why do we beg God to help us in times of difficulty? Begging is motivated by fear and fear doesn’t know the will of God. Faith begins where the will of God is KNOWN and where our fear runs out, is where our faith begins.
