If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth
to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given
him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that
wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and
tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any
thing of the Lord. James 1:5-7 [KJV]
If all we have to do is ask of God and he will freely give then what is holding us back? What is causing us to doubt? Clearly doubt is a tool from the enemy, if we doubt we would not receive the wisdom that God has for us and since it's so easy to doubt, so easy to let that feeling overtake our hearts, we lose out on the wisdom God has to impart upon us. Is it really so simple? Believe = gain wisdom ... doubt = no wisdom? If it is so easy then why doubt?
I want to stop the doubt! I don't want the gift that I should be receiving to be stolen by the enemy, it's time to fight back against it. Are you with me?

Amen!
the concept is simple - but it is easy to believe and yet have a little bit of doubt. I think the reason we don't see a lot of results sometimes is because we do not have complete faith.
