Doubt says:
“You’ll never build your
business, finish high school, get married, and overcome your ordeal with your
son or daughter.” “You can’t overcome your bankruptcy, win over cancer,
overcome your divorce, recover from your mess and failure or see your broken
relationship healed.”
Satan is a liar! All of us have to deal with negative
thoughts that crisscross through our thought life. The problem is, What are
we doing with those deadly thoughts? Thoughts can turn into our emotions
that turn into
decisions of defeat! Missed opportunities, broken paths to our dreams.
Have you ever wondered why
God instructed Joshua who was facing their first city to conquer in the
Promised Land, “Tell the people when you walk around Jericho, don’t say
anything for six days; nothing
until the last day.” I don’t think they could have kept from saying things like, “What a crazy idea this is! Joshua
must have had a heat stroke, Who ever heard of winning over such a strong city
like Jericho by just walking around the walls? What a horrible plan! Why is he
leading?”
God told them to ZIP IT UP!
Don’t say anything till the 7th
day when you walk around seven times. Had they spoken
too soon, they would have lost their victory. I believe that’s
the reason we miss and lose our miracles, blessings, and the favor of God on
our lives. “He that will love life and see good days let him refrain his tongue from speaking evil.” (1Peter 3:10)
Zechariah was told in his old age, “Elizabeth your wife is going to have a child.” He must have said something like, “God, are you sure you haven’t dialed the wrong number?” Because of his doubts and speaking negative about God’s promises, God didn’t allow him to speak another word for nine months. God was not pleased with the negative comment that came out of his mouth, But when Elizabeth gave birth to John the Baptist, Zechariah's tongue was released to speak.Doubts are deadly! What are you doing with the deadly doubts that get inside your head?

Satan says things like, “You’ll
never see your dream come true, Just give up, quit, and throw in the towel.”
When the people walked around the walls the 7th time, “they shouted, and the walls came tumbling down.” Had
negativity come out of their mouth, they would have missed their
miracle.
How many miracles, breakthroughs,
victories and wins have we missed because deadly doubts took root in our
hearts which produced stillborn dreams?
Many dreams have been aborted because of doubt. Ten spies came back to Moses with an
EVIL REPORT! Is doubt evil? YES!
Satan tempted Eve by saying to her, “Hath God said you should not take of the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge?” She took of the fruit because the seed of doubt produced death. It was their action of deadly doubt that got Adam and Eve booted out of the Garden of Eden. Between the promise and the payoff, Satan’s process is interjecting DOUBT to stop the plans of God in your life.
We can win, if we use our faith, confidence, and courage to walk into the promises of God. I declare today, “I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me.” I am blessed because of His favor on my life. The best is yet to come, because He says so! I am more than a conqueror through Him that loved us! Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. He is greater than your doubts.
