Finding Faith In The Storm

            Doubt destroys faith, and it was the reason for destroying

            Peter's faith that he could walk on water with the Lord's
            assistance. But, Jesus still saves him at the right moment.
            This story proves that the Lord is always available to help us
            through our hardships. But, it is us humans who doubt him

            and separates ourselves from him (King James Version Of
            The Holy Bible).

               Today’s  church  must  stay  focus  on  Jesus  even  during

            times of battles and hardships.

               American  churches  have  become  like  an  army  in  the
            recent decades. Christian life has been promoted by these
            churches for their benefits. Faith in Jesus Christ is no longer

            the main focus of these modern churches. Modern churches
            preach  to  people  to  accept  Jesus  Christ  for  benefits  like
            prosperity and peace. It is easy to have faith in the Lord and
            trust in his wisdom when things are going all right.


               The Bible makes it very clear that the Christian life is not
            only  about  prosperity  and  happiness.  In  reality,  it  is  a
            battleground. God does not save us so that we can forever
            live in peace. In reality, Christians are part of the Lord's army

            who have the responsibility to serve the Lord, even in the
            times of hardships and during battle. The best way to serve
            the  Lord  is  to  have  faith  in  him  even  when  everything  is
            going wrong (King James Version Of The Holy Bible).


               Today’s churches must also focus on Jesus Christ. They
            must tie themselves to Jesus when in middle of a storm and
            not just in happier times. Before preaching the importance

            of faith in the Lord during difficult times to the masses, the
