Believe, Lord I Do Believe, Help Thou My Unbelief

Greetings in the Lord Everyone

Have you ever had to say those words to the Lord? Lord I do believe but if there is any unbelief in my heart, then help my unbelief to believe. I have, many times and sometimes still do say those very words to Father God in Jesus name.

When a person is believing God for a miracle, or a divine breakthrough in a situation, or for debt cancellations, or for major financial favor, or deliverance from an addiction or bad habit and you have done all you know to do through prayer,prayers of agreement,praise and thanksgiving,speaking the Word of God over the matter and still believing,somethimes you may have to cry out to the Lord God Almighty and say "Lord I do believe but if there is any unbelief in me then help my unbelief.

Mark 9:23-24 **And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.
(Now I know that in this Scripture it was about a child having an unclean spirit.).

I was thinking about Believing God with all of my heart and the Holy Spirit put that Word in my heart.

So, here’s my question again, have you ever had to cry out to God and say: Lord I do believe by faith with thanksgiving, but only you know if there is any unbelief in my heart, help thou my unbelief.

Blessings to you all in Jesus name

The Father struggled to believe that Jesus could heal his child, Not that he struggled to believe in God.

There is nothing wrong or sinful in having questions or doubts about ones Faith, so long as one is searching for answers.

we’re told in 1Peter3::**15 **But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.

We need to be aware that the lies of " prosperity gospel " don’t become part of ones faith.

Greetings in the Lord, Who-me

Yes, the child’s dad’s response was to what Jesus had said. Jesus told him to believe, and he said, “Lord I do believe, help thou my unbelief” and that’s exactly what Jesus did by delivery his child it was to show him and those around him where the man’s faith was and that his faith was truly in God.

Thanks for the Feedback.

Now God Almighty has a lot of promises in His Word from the Old Testament to the New Testament that says we are to prosper not just in Spirit and Truth with His Word, yes we are to be rich in knowing HIM through His Word,His Faithfulness,His Goodness,His Favor,His LovingKindness, His Gentleness,His Forgiveness, His divine Healing,His Righteousness, His Mercy,His Grace, with the divine Help that comes from His Holy Spirit,and Prosperity in the natural.

Let’s be real because the God I serve wants me heal,healthy,whole,debt free with His wisdom guiding me,and He wants me to prosper in the natural even as my will,mind,emotions, and body prospers in His Word.

The blessings of the Lord maketh rich and He adds no sorrow with it.
(Proverbs 10:22)
Beloved I pray above all things that you prosper and enjoy good health, as your Soul prospers. (3 John 1:2)
Jesus prayed: “Forgive our debts and we forgive our debtors” (Matthew 6:12)

What about when Jesus supplied the money to pay for his and Peter’s taxes?

What about when God SENT Elijha to the widow woman, she was so poor, and all she had was enough oil and flour to make some bread. But here comes God, sending His Servant to bless the poor woman (1 Kings chapter 17)

Psalm 5;12 For surely, O Lord, you bless the righteous, You surround then with Your favor as with a shield. (NIV)

There are other Scriptures in the Word of God that points to us as His Children that we can Believe Him for wealth in the natural as we grow in and be rooted in Christ Jesus.

God also blesses the works of our hands, and He uses job assignments, He uses ideas, He uses His favor and generosity to prospers us in the natural it is for His glory,because He is a Good Father. It’s for our good because we make our boast is in our God and it’s also to be a blessing to others to show forth His Covenant in Jesus name.

Deuteronomy chapter 8 says a whole lot about prosperity especially Deut.8:18

So please don’t tell me that God wants me to have the world’s mentality of low income,poverty,and just barely getting by, because My God said in Jeremiah 29:11 that He wants me to have His peace and success in this World.

Didn’t God Bless Abraham with His Words First, and then HE manifested is Covenant Promises that all Families of the Earth would be Blessed through him, first by His obedience and second in the natural. Abraham was wealthy in the natural and had 318 employees that prospered even as he had prospered.

God does not want us to get caught up in the things He gives to us or blesses us with but He wants us to enjoy ALL that Jesus died on the Cross for us to have now and throughout all Eternity.

Again, Thanks for your feedback, and May all your needs be met according to the Father’s riches in glory not just spiritually but naturally as well through Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19)

I love Jeremiah 29:**10 **This is what the Lord says: “When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will come to you and fulfill my good promise to bring you back to this place. **11 **For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. **12 **Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. **13 **You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. **14 **I will be found by you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile.”

Context is always important and this passage is about people returning to God, not about his people succeeding.

Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. **29 **For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. **30 **And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.

verse28 ALL things work for our good, that is poverty, ill health, riches etc etc

Greetings in the Lord,

Context is good and I know that, but when the Holy Spirit gives revelations on His Word then it is no longer Context, but Rhema and Rhema comes from having a closeness with God in Jesus name.

I know now why God hides so many of His people from other people so they can’t crush what He is doing in their heart.

I know the Word of God by studying and seeking HIM and leaning on the Holy Spirit for insight, revelations, and rhema, a quickening of God’s written Word and by living the Word of God out daily with HIS help. Thank God for the Holy Ghost and to be led by HIM in Jesus name.

Jesus said the Words I speak are spirit and life not context.

Thanks again for the feedback, God’s Blessings to you and your household in Jesus name.
