This realm, this world has been created in such a manner that those of faith will be rewarded and those who doubt will not only, not receive anything, but what they do have will be taken away from them by the devil. Again, this world has been established in such a way that those who have faith will be blessed and blessed mightily, and those who are doubleminded and doubtful and unbelieving will not only, not receive anything, but what they currently possess will be taken away from them by satan. For the devil has come into this world to steal, to kill, and to destroy but Christ came into this world so that you and all mankind can be saved and have life abundant!
Matt 13:10-13 10 And the disciples came and said to Him, "Why do You speak to them in parables?" 11 Jesus answered them, "To you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been granted. 12 For whoever has, to him more shall be given, and he will have an abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has shall be taken away from him. NASU
Know this...the one who has...has obtained what he has...solely by faith. One can only receive anything from God, by faith. So the one who has...has...because he has faith. The one who is doubleminded and doubting, the Word of God says that person should not expect to receive anything.
James 1:6-8 6 But he must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For that man ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord, 8 being a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. NASU
There should be no expectation in you and I, of receiving anything from the Lord, when we ask with doubt. God's promises are to be obtained through faith. And since faith is so crucial to receiving anything from the Lord should not you and all His sons and daughters seek to grow in faith? Would it not be greatly beneficial to grow in faith so that you could receive, receive, receive from God all that He has for you? Surely, this is the challenge that He offers those of us who have been born again...grow in faith, by reading and understanding His word (Rom 10:17), as you listen to the Holy Spirit...and pray in tongues frequently (Jude 20)...for surely God desires you not to be in poverty when it comes to receiving His blessings, but rather He desires that you be in abundance, so that you can have something to share, for this brings glory to God. So, grow in His Word! Discover His promises! Obtain His promises by faith! Pray in tongues!
