How do you overcome the spirit of unbelief?

[WeWalkByFaith]

I apologize for posting it in this thread, but I did not know what other category this topic falls on.

Anyway, recently for the past 3 weeks I've been attacked by the spirit of unbelief and this is causing me to doubt God and his Word, thus I'm not able to seek refuge in him, as I constantly question myself about my trust in him, his love for me and such.

I've asked a few others and they said it has to be a decision made from the heart to take God at his word, but how do I do this when there's a spirit of unbelief filling my heart with unbelief and unable fully trust in God? Will prayer help? Please respond fast!!

I would think that prayer would help. You posted in a rather inactive forum, so maybe you should post this again under the forum for Christian Advice or the Prayer Wall. I'm sorry you are struggling so much. I'm sorry I don' think I have the answer to your question, maybe someone else in one of the other forums will though. I like to remember all of the prophecies that are fulfilled both by Jesus and the Bible.

That's good to hear, hopefully God would tear down these spiritual strongholds in my mind from preventing me into fully believing in him. And thank you for the suggestion, will do that right away

Remember the verse that faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God? Try listening to bible audio this really helped me. Even if you are not listening 100 percent it seeps into your subconscious and increases your faith and removes doubt.

God holds you responsible for your unbelief, not any spirit. Faith is a gift from God. We try to believe, we act as if we believe, and we hold onto whatever faith we have, but beyond that you just need to leave it up to God. Examining why you believe and looking for more evidence (there's more than you can study in a lifetime) is profitable, but choosing to obey based on your hope that he is who he says he is will reveal God's help for you. (Re)Listen to the testimony of other people who have experienced God in their lives.
