Day 9: Disbelief Belief

Oh the power of three letters~

D I S

The power to change

agree to DISagree,

approved to DISapproved,

obedience to DISobedience,

interested to DISinterested,

order to DISorder,

advantage to DISadvantage.

"DIS"~

expressing negation.

WHAT ARE YOU DISing? 

When you add the prefix DIS to any word you miss out,

because what you really are plagued with is

DISBELIEF~

when we don't have something that we really BELIEVE in that is reliable, true, or real.

Who, what, where or when are you BELIEVING?

The father approaches JESUS to heal his son

"If YOU can?"* rolls off his tongue.

DISBELIEF~

"If I can?" said JESUS.

Then JESUS responds with,

“Everything is possible for one who believes” *

BELIEF~

"trust, faith, or confidence in someone or something".

And then~

"Immediately the boy’s father exclaimed,

“I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!” *(Mark 9:23-24)

The father KNOWS about JESUS and that HE could heal his child, but

"If YOU can" rolls off his tongue.

The father then

RECEIVES JESUS

and

BELIEVES IN HIM

and now asks JESUS to really help him.

Have you ever questioned JESUS

whether HE can or will do what HE said HE would do?

"If YOU can"

has rolled of my tongue numerous times.

And then

in the midst of my DISBELIEF

JESUS

responds back with

"If I can?" 

because

HE hears,

HE sees,

and

HE wants to

because

HE CAN.

Is JESUS enough to take away the DIS from your BELIEF?

If JESUS CAN turn water into wine.

If JESUS CAN walk on water.

If JESUS CAN heal the blind man.

But do you BELIEVE?

If JESUS CAN take away your anxieties.

If JESUS CAN forgive the unforgivable.

If JESUS CAN  love the unlovable.

If JESUS CAN give you eternal life.

IF JESUS CAN,

CAN

you

BELIEVE HIM?

Let's FAST from the weight of DISBELIEF.

Every time you are DISing something,

put on FAITH~

"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" (James 1:6).

What if DISBELIEF isn't an option for you today?

Would you BELIEVE JESUS CAN?

Well, DISing isn't an option today,

because you wear

FAITH

&

"BELIEVE FOR IT"
