If you have trouble believing, ask God to help with your unbelief. The power of prayer is evident throughout the whole bible and He will give you anything you ask in His Name for His sake, as long as you are willing to accept the truth, already revealed to us in the Scriptures.

The disciples were also struggling with the same challenges we face today. They were preoccupied with their “status” and reputation and concerned with the success of others who were not following them. Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?

Sometimes I question my own motives and priorities. Then Jesus shows us the example of how to treat a child and the consequence for causing “one of these little ones to stumble” (vers 42). This could also refer to someone who is a young christian, still finding their way, while we become a stumbling block for them.

My prayer for today is this. May the Lord grant you the grace and comfort, so that you can come before Him with your struggles and temptations. We cannot be salt for the earth as believers and at the same time have our fleshly indulgences cause us to sin. Ask the Lord to give you the strength to remove everything in your life that is not from Him.

Have a blessed Friday.
