"I believe, but help my unbelief!" That's what the father of the boy with convulsions said to Jesus (Mark 9:24). This probably is your prayer at times, too! As we look at the great heroes of faith in Hebrews 11:2-40 — which follows our verse — we know this must have also been their prayer. Their faith wasn't always perfect. Their trust wasn't always mature. But they stayed at it; they believed and acted with a relentless assurance that somehow, someway, God would act and deliver based on his faithfulness and their faith. Let's "hold unswervingly" to our certainty in our God's faithfulness as we look to the Savior and pray, "I believe, but help my unbelief."
Video Commentary...
We've included Phil's ToGather video from four years ago as an added blessing to our verse today:
Dear God, "I believe, but help my unbelief." Please mature and empower my faith so my life will be a steadfast and consistent testimony to your presence and grace. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
