Leaky faith?

<!-- wp:paragraph -->

<p id="viewer-foo">The devil stirs up circumstances to keep you from embracing your destiny. Since walking in your destiny requires faith, the devil tries to distract you and separate you from faith by stirring up negative circumstances. His aim is to get you to look at your circumstances so that your faith will be drained. That was what happened to Peter (Matthew 14:22-33).</p>

<p id="viewer-d14rh">Even though you have faith but because you keep looking at the circumstances, doubt will creep in. Once doubt sets in, your faith is punctured with a hole - and this begins to drain out your expectations.</p>

<p id="viewer-a7q66">Since faith cannot work without hope and since hope is nothing more than expectations, a leaky faith therefore drains out expectations.</p>

<p id="viewer-1rp9l">Remember this: The circumstances are designed to take away your faith so that you are not able to get the results promised or get results like you used to get. The implication of this is that everything now becomes a struggle and you are just trying to make it and that is when you are sinking.</p>

<p id="viewer-a98dj">If you get the Word of God in your heart then you can use the word of God to do things you naturally couldn’t do. God wants you to do these things because He wants you to stand out; not so that people see how great you are but so they can see how great and mighty He is.</p>

<p id="viewer-77nfm">God will give you things to do that are beyond your natural abilities because you have His potential in you that needs to be exposed but the exposure occurs as you step out where He directs you.</p>
