Study Notes
Doubt - The First D
- Doubt is the first tactic the enemy uses to undermine trust in God.
- The enemy sows doubt by questioning God's trustworthiness and withholding the "best".
- This happens by highlighting perceived shortcomings or lack of success compared to others.
- Doubt can lead to resentment towards God.
- Self-doubt is not genuine self-criticism, it's the enemy filling the mind with doubt and attacking one's identity.
- The enemy targets insecurities and perceived failures.
- Bullying can reinforce self-doubt and discouragement.
Doubt in Specific Situations
- Doubt about personal abilities (e.g., music, filmmaking, sports)
- Doubt about God's favoritism towards others
- Fear of making mistakes and disappointing others
The Enemy's Strategy
- The enemy focuses on what one lacks rather than what one possesses
- The enemy encourages focusing on weaknesses rather than strengths.
- The enemy is skilled in creating doubt even about the existence of God.
Dealing with Doubt
- Remember that God created you perfectly for a specific reason.
- Realize that doubt is not from a personal place, but from the enemy.
- Trust in God, not in oneself.
