Am I in Faith?

Scripture: 2 Corinthians 13:5 Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you–unless, of course, you fail the test?

Observation: I hate tests, always did. I was so afraid to fail and now I’m asked to test myself in one of the most important parts of my Christian life, faith. I know I failed the test before, several times. I know Christ is within me or I wouldn’t even be here and without his strength I wouldn’t been able to accomplish anything. I examined myself and my faith is weak, but is getting stronger each day.

Application: To examine myself daily to see where I stand in my faith. To depend on God each day so that my faith will grow stronger as I see him working in my life. Be willing to test my faith each day as I know the Lord is with me.

Prayer: Dear Father increase my faith and draw me nearer to you. Test me to see if my faith is honoring to you. You are my Lord and my master show this servant how to please you this day.
