Why our faith wavers in life by Dr. Charles Stanley: When trusting God is in conflict with human reason, we will be tempted to doubt. We will waver in our faith when we allow our feelings to rule us. When we fail to see God at work in our circumstances, we may stagger in our faith. Negative counsel from others can often cause us to doubt. When we focus on the circumstances rather than God, our faith may waver. As long as we are ignorant of God’s ways, our faith will continue to stagger. Our feelings of guilt about past sins may also impede us from fully trusting the Lord. Our faith will waver when we listen to the enemy’s lies. The Consequences of Wavering Faith Unfortunately, when we nurse our unbelief, we leave ourselves open to terrible consequences. We are in danger of: Being double-minded. Becoming unstable in our ways. Missing the blessings of God. Having our faith destroyed. Misleading others about God’s character. Losing our influence. Weakening our testimonies. Making wrong decisions. Forfeiting our peace. Committing costly mistakes. Being discouraged in prayer.
