Unbelief is far more serious than just not knowing how to get God to do what you ask of Him. Unbelief is the denial of who God is—either knowingly or unknowingly.
Yes, God is certainly our source for everything that is good and perfect.
“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.” (James 1:17 NKJV)
But when we limit our relationship with God to no more than a resource for what we want, we will treat Him like a vending machine and we will use our faith as the currency to get those wants.
While this is certainly an improvement over trying to get what we want without “any” relationship with Him, there is still little of the life He has for us in such an approach.
Saint Genesius of Rome is the Roman Catholic patron saint of comedians, dancers, actors, musicians, printers, and torture victims. He was an actor in many plays that mocked Christianity. While performing a piece mocking baptism, Genesius had a sudden conversion experience on stage and refused to renounce his faith even at the orders of emperor Diocletian. He was then martyred by beheading. His feast day is August 25th We invite you to join the production team, make a donation, tell your friends or just watch.

If God had always done exactly what you had asked of Him, you would have no problem with faith. Your faith in God would remain unchallenged.
But your faith in God has been challenged. And the challenger is called unbelief. Unbelief is your human nature's direct attack against the true nature of God, trying to convince you that God is not who He says He is.
Rachael and Dustin are shocked to find out their unborn child could possibly go into heart failure. Watch as they choose to accept God's will, rather then their own. A true miracle!
2 years ago Jose lost his beloved dog Chaos who had helped him through tough times. He was heartbroken and feared he'd never see his dog again. Then he got a call that changed everything. And seeing this dog see his human again for the first time in 2 years will move you to tears. How sweet is this!?!
The fun folks from the Goodness Knows decided to teach 100 strangers how to play just one note on an instrument. Watching them learn was great enough. But when it all came together at the end I just had to smile!
Haven't you been in situations where you needed to count on God, but didn't think you could? This tension is the battle between faith and unbelief. And unless you understand this tension, you will make a wreck of your relationship with the Lord. But while it would seem so, unbelief is not the exact opposite of faith—at least not in the way it plays out in our daily lives. While faith has its substance in our spirit (our divine nature), unbelief has its substance in our flesh (our human nature). And both conditions can be (and usually are) present at the same time. It is critical to your progress (and to your sanity) to understand that just because you are dealing with unbelief “does not” mean that you have no faith. On the other hand, just because you have faith “does not” mean that you won't have to deal with unbelief. Don't let your unbelief convince you that you don't have any faith. And don't get so cocky that you begin to think your faith in God won't be challenged by unbelief. givemethatmountain.org/article/faith-and-unbelief-day-sixty-two/
Ruth is gutsy and proactive, yet filled with goodness. God takes her under His wing and turns her misery into happiness. In synagogues they will discuss the Book of Ruth late into the night at the upcoming festival of Shavuot. Watch video to remind yourself of the story, then go to post at https://testimonytrain.com/ruth to unravel its layers of meaning.

Dr. Scott Stewart, Pastor of Agape Church in Little Rock, Arkansas has a series of Q & A videos where he answers questions that have been sent to him. The answers are surprising and enlightening!
Dr. Dobson looks at the early-teen period of physical and social development, and in particular four "extremes" that perennially cause so many children such enormous distress: i.e., the late-maturing boy, the late-maturing girl, the early-maturing girl, and the early-maturing boy.
That flood of negative thoughts and emotions which comes against you when you’re trying to have faith in God is called unbelief. Unbelief lives in your flesh. Faith lives in your spirit. Please don't consider unbelief as just a lack of faith—because it isn't. Great faith and great unbelief can go on at the same time. And if you don't treat them as separate conditions you will be unable to bring your faith up to the level that God intends for you. givemethatmountain.org/article/faith-and-unbelief-day-sixty-one/
What do you do with all your emotions? Does it say something about you? Do you find yourself comparing yourself to the new person? Should you confront or react to your ex?
Because God is not intimidated by what we face, we don't have to be intimidated either. He will walk us through our circumstances in a demonstration of His love toward us. He has even made it possible for us to have joy and peace as we go through our circumstances with Him. “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33 NKJV) When we add a pain‐killer (in any form) to any request we make of Him, we have mixed two different systems. And we have neutralized faith, because faith in God plus anything else is no longer faith. The “anything” we add to faith is called “unbelief” in the Bible. givemethatmountain.org/article/faith-and-unbelief-day-sixty/
The Garnett Family, composed of Mom and her 3 daughters, left the judges amazed with their audition on Britain's Got Talent. Their soul-filled rendition Jess Glynne's 'Take Me Home' sent actual goosebumps up my arm. WOW!
