We talked about seeing God in the things around us
what about when we can’t see God?
Prayers unanswered
fear
lose hope
sight
Faith means choosing to believe and to trust God, even when you don’t see a way.
Somehow you know a way will be created.

Praying for it
Prayers are heard by God BUT there is a spiritual battle going on
Satan wants to destroy you
while waiting for prayers to be answered
doubt, discouragement & dissapointment, impatience
Daniel has a vision of an angel
Daniel prays and is discouraged b/c it’s been a while and he hasn’t seen any answer to prayer
Angel shows up to let him know the status
heard from day one and have been in an intense battle over this
Michael the Arch Angel came to help me so that I could come and tell you that an answer is on the way
A delay is not a no but it means that God has sent an army who is fighting for you
we are a vessel to carry the message of Jesus throughout the world
Cup
sin in cup
sexual impurity
drunkenness
addiction
gossip, bitterness, hatred,
unbelief
envy, ungodly desires, wrong focus
A delay is not a no but it means that God has sent an army who is fighting for you
we can hold on becasue we know that God has not given up on us nor has He quit fightiing for us
We need faith
(end of 10)
assurance: confidence that it’ll happen
conviction: truth or verification
not like gambling
leaping into the dark
into the light
Russian rullet
we are comfortable with faith in many things
I don’t worry about my next breath
step
car
bed to hold me up
family to turn on me
experience builds faith
not believing in Him but believing Him
Faith is a choice
experience builds faith
It’s easier to believe when everything lines up and the moon is shining brightly in the sky
but what about when the clouds move in and it seems like light is a thing of the past?
faith is still a choice
in the moments of difficult faith are times for potential growth in faith
or if we let go of our faith they can be a time of great hinderance to our faith
car sickness
read a book
eyes say not moving
ears hear road noise are moving
contradiction
roll down window and allow your hand to feel the air helps b/c there is more sensing what is true than what is false
this is true about our faith
when circumstances followed by satans tactics try to have you doubt what you thought was true about God
Hand out the window:
read His Word
remember how good He has been to you and those around you
grace & mercy, kindness, rescued you,
Seek Him rather than draw away
Sp 13:5-6
remember last weeks message about the moon in the sky and how beautiful it was
sometimes we see a full moon & other times partial, sliver or none
just because I can’t see the whole moon or even see it at all doesn’t mean that I don’t believe that it is still there
at times our view of God may be obstructed by our circumstances
we can’t see His goodness
don’t feel His power
can’t hear His voice
Our Father has an incredible track record
more constant than the moon or the sun
Psalm 42:
remember how good God has been
the way we speak can change our hearts
talk about how terrible their spouse is
they prepare their heart for failure
even a great wife could not please a husband who has hardened his heart to her love
a man who is constantly speaking positive truth about his wife will be so in love with her when he arrives home that the same relationship
if you keep saying that you can’t or God won’t
you are short changing yourself
have faith and live in light of your faith in God
faith is an action
we can’t just say that we believe but we must act like it
Where have you felt in the dark?
where do you struggle to have faith?
hardship
pain
salvation
