Hollywood Prayer Network On DoubtSample
OUR JOURNEY THROUGH DOUBT HELPS US BECOME STRONG IN FAITH
“Don’t dig up in doubt what you planted in faith.” Elisabeth Elliot
PRAY: Jesus, You are so powerful that You can look at a tree and say “May you never bear fruit again!” And immediately the tree will wither. You can move mountains, part seas and raise people from the dead. And yet I doubt You. You tell us not to have doubt, but to trust totally in You and You give me the power to throw a mountain into the sea. And yet I doubt. Oh Jesus, fill me new and fresh with Your Holy Spirit and take away my unbelief. I want to move a mountain and make a tree wither, but I need faith and confidence in You in order to do that. Right now, I ask that You change me so that I won't doubt. Thank You that You can do anything and everything, for me, through me, and in me. I praise You for that. Amen and Amen.
REFLECT: Jesus, You are so powerful that You can look at a tree and say “May you never bear fruit again!” And immediately the tree will wither. You can move mountains, part seas and raise people from the dead. And yet I doubt You. You tell us not to have doubt, but to trust totally in You and You give me the power to throw a mountain into the sea. And yet I doubt. Oh Jesus, fill me new and fresh with Your Holy Spirit and take away my unbelief. I want to move a mountain and make a tree wither, but I need faith and confidence in You in order to do that. Right now, I ask that You change me so that I won't doubt. Thank You that You can do anything and everything, for me, through me, and in me. I praise You for that. Amen and Amen.
ACT: Read Matthew 21:18-21 and reflect on the power behind Jesus' words. It's almost overwhelming, and yet He tells us that we can do the same thing! Jesus' disciples were amazed and asked how that tree withered so quickly. Re-read the text and then question your own unbelief. Are you like the disciples or can you say that your God can wither trees and move mountains and you don't doubt Him for a second?!

About this Plan
I think one of the greatest plights of man is this phrase: “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!” We believe God completely in some circumstances and then we doubt Him a moment later by getting fearful, angry, or discouraged. This week we’re going to dig into doubt and ask the Lord to grow our faith so that we can move mountains!
