THE DANGER OF UNBELIEF

And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat. Genesis 3:6 Beloved,I think unbelief is actually faith. It is just faith in something other than God and His words. When Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, they were in faith. But their faith was in what the serpent said instead of what God said. Their unbelief was just their God given misdirected causing them to believe in a lie. We are faith beings. God created us to have belief in Him, However, some of us do belief in something else instead of God. Whether we like it or not, you must have believe in something if not God. We drive cars and ride on airplanes because we believe they will safely get us to our destination. We eat in faith, we sit in. Faith.....Everything we do is done in faith. Faith governs our lives. We use faith everyday. No one can function without faith. All of our actions are based on faith. But if we base our faith on things that contradict God's Word, we are in unbelief and using faith in reverse. Therefore unbelief is actually the power of faith working in a negative way. Just as faith is the power that releases God's ability 1John5:4, unbelief is the power that releases the will of Satan in our lives. Therefore, realize that you do have faith and you use it every day consciously and unconsciously in either a positive or negative way. Choose to direct your faith in the positive direction of God by basing it on the promises of God.
