Do you sometimes doubt your salvation?
Do you doubt the forgiveness of your sins?
The work of God's Word?
Matthew 11:4-6
Jesus told them, "Go back to John and tell him about what you have heard and seen-- the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised to life, and the Good News is being preached to the poor. And tell him: 'God blesses those who are not offended by me.' "
I think every one of us have doubts at one point in time. Jesus was trying to say, when you stop and look at all the miracles God does. The miracles you see and hear, there is no need to doubt who he is!
When you start to second guess God, here is what you need to do:
1) You need to look at the evidence in the scriptures.
Pick up your Bible and read it! All the proof is written right there. Gods word is promising. There is nothing but truth to be found in it!
2) Look at the changes in your life.
Sit down and think back on how you used to be.
Now take out a piece of paper and write down all the times God has helped you.
Can you even count them all?
How much have you changed?
No one is perfect. The only perfect man is Jesus Christ. You may not be perfect, but you are not like you used to be. That is something you can give God great thanks for!
3) Turn to Christ
When you doubt, don't turn away from God. That is the last thing you should be doing. Instead turn to him.
Pray, ask for his guidance, and give him your all. He will never fail you and will never let you go without. When you look at all he has done for you and you turn to him, there will be no doubt that he is our one true God.
He can give you strength beyond imagination. But when your strength runs out, that is when his starts!
What kind of things has God done for you?
