Increase Your Faith, Change Your Life!

Faith or Doubt? Which Way are You Trending?

Luke 17: 5 says, “Lord increase our faith.” And yet, in our day to day lives, how many of your moments do you catch yourself thinking thoughts of confidence and hope, or, are you questioning and hesitant about life? Are you doubtful?

It is interesting that Luke was asking God to increase the faith of the people. That must have meant that Luke was discerning a culture of uncertainty, chaos, lack of confidence, and a lack of faith. As a result, Luke turns to God and requests an increase in the faith of the people.

Fast forward, where do you find yourself today? Let me encourage you, at any moment, to take steps to increase the faith factor in your life. We can’t live on yesterday’s achievements, nor can we live on yesterday’s faith. We thrive as we grow in our confidence, positive thinking, and achievement. All of these words are related to strong faith. Doubt is much to the contrary of these same words.

Action Step:

1) Spend increased amount of your time around people of faith in God.

2) Invest time in reading the Bible and devotionals every day

3) Increase your prayer time–as we grow closer to God, He draws closer too.

4) Stay away from negative people–just that simple.

A little bit of increase in faith each day will lead to a significant change over your life. Start today!

God’s very best,
