DOUBT YOUR DOUBT

DOUBT YOUR DOUBT

DOC LYNCH

So you're doubting? Intellectually and emotionally you have engaged a new ideal, and perhaps it involves Jesus. BUT…you have your doubts.

Doubt is one of the most powerful weapons of the Dark Realm.

I can't believe how many times I have applied this verse across the span of so many topics. It applies here again.

Ephesians 6:12 (AMP) – "For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere."

If you're going to doubt, than doubt for a good reason, and know exactly what it is you're doubting. That is a form of intellectual integrity. In other words, you're not just saying, "Uh…I don't know, I think that stuff is wack!"

Some stuff is indeed "wack", but until you can make an informed decision you are merely going by what you have heard others say, or reacting from a deep seated emotional bias.

When doubt is interjected into the introduction of a new concept, idea, suggestion, etc., it can run what might be the best thing for you right off the rails into a ditch.

I'm not saying a person should not be "cautious". Caution is NOT doubt. Caution merely begs us to move slowly in a decision making process. Doubt on the other hand, cuts that process off at the onset and disallows any further intellectual or spiritual dialog. You can certainly exercise doubt after caution when you feel something is not beneficial or in your favor.

However, I have found when we are talking about Jesus, there is no subject that is more negatively impacted by doubt than when it concerns Him. Doubt makes it's entrance almost immediately. In fact, many people's first reaction is to DOUBT.

You might say it is some sort of sociological, political, religious, cultural attitude that is prevailing over the moment, and while I do not discount that, I think the major influence is the Enemy trying to shut you down from a life saving force that Satan (and his demons) know will rescue you from his effect upon a person.

Matthew 12:30 – Jesus says: "He who is not with Me is against Me; and he who does not gather with Me scatters."

Good enough reason for me to suggest that you DOUBT YOUR DOUBT.

If you are of a nature which is more skeptical and cynical than trusting or believing, than you are accustomed to doubting, so I suggest you doubt the doubt you have.

In other words, give it a chance.

I have NO DOUBT at all, that had I doubted (and I was a doubting and suspicious person by nature) my opportunity to know Jesus, I would have died shortly thereafter. DOUBT would have killed me in the long run, and I would have gone straight to hell.

GOING STRAIGHT TO HELL is a sobering proposition the devil has hidden from people in general. It's one of the things that he instills doubt in people about. He doesn't want the human race getting wrapped up in having to even discuss that stuff. That's what makes what I do so necessary and so important. I am always here to tell people that there is an alternative and not to automatically doubt it.

Instead, for once, doubt the doubt you are having, and remain open to the LIFE GIVING FORCE that Jesus offers a chance.

You lose nothing in life when you opt to doubt insignificant events in your life. When you are dealing with life gone awry, or when your happiness and sanity is at stake, than your doubt could be your demise.

Look: YOUR DOUBT COULD BE YOUR DEMISE.

Demise is so final. Not just of your life but of things that effect your life. Sometimes a life sentence of sadness and morose and melancholy existence is a far worse proposition. Why do you think so many people punch their own ticket?

If there is a time NOT to DOUBT it's in the face of hearing there is an option that brings love, joy, happiness, purpose, meaning, and SANITY into a life that has never been thought possible in light of how you have been living. I have heard it said about Jesus, "I never really knew how bad off I was until I experienced how good life can be."

Yeah…it is that and more.

Take a shot today. Go out on that limb and trust instead of doubt today. We are not dealing with the type of people who might have left you broken for trusting them, we are dealing with The Lover Of Your Soul today. The One Who NEVER Fails. NEVER FAILS. The One Who NEVER WILL LEAVE YOU NOR FORSAKE YOU. Always for you and never against you.

His Name is Jesus. And He is real, alive, and reaching out for you even at this moment.

Jesus will change your life!

All of Him extended to you today with love and peace. This is my prayer for you right now.
