Luke 22:31-32
"Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift you as wheat. 32
But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith may not fail..."
Can one’s faith fail? Yes it can, if not
Jesus would have been lying. What does it mean for your faith to fail? Firstly,
I believe it means your faith did not deliver the expected results. What would
make your faith to fail?
The first thing is wavering or staggering:
Rom 4:20(KJV)
“He staggered not at the promise of God through
unbelief…”
“No unbelief or distrust made him waver (doubtingly question) concerning the
promise of God...” (AMP)
From the above passages we see that
unbelief, doubts and questions will make a man’s faith to fail and not deliver
the expected results.
Let me say a little bit about questions.
The Scripture says in Romans 10
Rom 10:6-7
“But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise,
Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ
down from above Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up
Christ again from the dead.)”
