LORD, HELP MY UNBELIEF

In the past, I thought that the only thing that would prevent God from answering our prayers is our sin. Then there was this father in Mark 9 who brought his son to the disciples of Jesus so they can cast out the demon that possessed him. But the disciples could not. So the father argued with the disciples and rebuked them for failing him. When they went to Jesus, Jesus rebuked all of them for being part of an unbelieving generation. Initially, I thought that the disciples' lack of faith prevented them from casting the demon that possessed the boy. Then I learned that it was only after the boy’s father said, in Mark 9:24, “Help my unbelief,” that Jesus was able to cast out the demon from the boy. I realized that there are times that God would not answer the things we ask for because we doubt His ability to do so. Have you been praying for something important, but the Lord has not responded, even though you know that He can easily give you what you want?  I made this message because I was intrigued by the father of the demon-possessed boy. I wanted to understand what unbelief means so that I may learn to completely believe in Jesus. I am hoping that when I learn this, He may answer the prayers that are important to me. Sana, this message may bless you, as the story in Mark 9 has blessed me.
