Why it is Difficult to Believe God

  • If a person is a believer, knows God is faithful and all-powerful, and the promises in the Bible then it would seem that faith/belief would be simple, easy and powerful.
  • All believers realize that this is usually not true in daily life. One of our most serious difficulties is in this area of faith. Doubt is apparently intuitive and overwhelming.
  • Although we know that faith is an ability given in salvation, that it is a decision to trust God in the application of His Word to daily life -- we seem weak, hindered, and often confused when we attempt to do so. Why is this so?
