Title: *Double-minded man*
*VERSE OF THE DAY*
James 1:6-8 NIV
But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do.
*The text*
Could you imagine someone praying and a few minutes or days later, they return to God with a change of mind? Yes, some even tell God they reverse the prayers or have lost interest in what they have asked of. Just imagine someone who is always changing his/her mind at every slightest point.
The Bible says whosoever did that receive nothing from God. This is serious, right? Yes God means it, you can't serve God without faith in Him, and double-mindedness showcases your faithlessness.
You just imagine yourself surprising someone with a gift and you realize that you don't really know what the person likes. You literally don't buy anything at all perhaps, when he/she asks you about the gift, you respond with an excuse that you don't know what to buy for you. That's what inconsistency in the mind can do. You don't have anything at all.
Change of mind or double-mindedness especially without any tangible reason or revelation can be demonic, deal with it before it delays you.
Sometimes, you don't even know what you want or like all because you are uncertain as the waves of the sea, this may not take you to hell but you having nothing from God alone is hell. People are so critical about some things not because of safety but because they don't have faith and doubt the possibility of it.*Many Christians are victims of this, pray for your deliverance*
*Prayers*
Father, only you see my heart and know my thoughts, align me to your plans. Deliver me from double-mindedness in Jesus' name. Amen
