This is the audio from the October 3, 2022 live social media broadcast of encouragement and prayer by Impact Prayer Ministry’s director, Tom Lemler.
“Then he said to Thomas, ‘Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.’”
John 20:27 (NIV)
This week’s prayer emphasis will focus on overcoming doubt even as we consider how Jesus loves those who doubt. It ought to be comforting to everyone to know that Jesus understands the doubts we have and loves us so much that He patiently walks us through our disbelief. When we take our doubts to Jesus, He presents Himself to us in such a way that we can believe fully in Him. As you pray this week, ask God to help you be aware of the doubts that enter you life at any time. Pray that you would know the evidence of Jesus that is strong enough to overcome all doubts. Pray that you would know the love of God that doesn’t waver because of your doubts and embraces you in a way that removes doubt. Pray that you would love people who doubt and share with them the good news of a God who can be believed in.
“Immediately the boy’s father exclaimed, ‘I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!’”
Mark 9:24 (NIV)
Pray that you would always turn to God when you have doubts. Pray that your belief would be strengthened by God as you recognize the tension between belief and unbelief. Pray that you and the people around you would know God’s love even in moments of doubt.
