Hello all. I am wondering if Belief / Faith is something we have or is it something we are given. I know the Bible says Faith comes from Hearing and Hearing by the Word of God. Well I read the word, and have done so since I first encountered the message, I used to say since I was born again, but now my Belief seems to be at its end and I am sadly not sure where I am anymore, maybe I wasn't born again 35 years ago. The fact I don't know perhaps says I wasn't. So how do I know if I was born again? How do I get belief? The scriptures speak of the man saying he believed but need help with his unbelief. What does that even mean?

So I am asking desperately for prayer to remove the doubt from my mind, to give me reassurance. I have much to decide on regarding my future and if I remain like this I am not sure what I am going to do.

Please I beg you all. Pray for me. Let me Hear Him Speak to me. Let my belief grow, let my faith become the EVIDENCE of things Hoped for.

Right now all I have is HOPE

ummm im not sure what you are trying to say,
Proverbs 3:5-6 (KJV)
5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

Surely to trust in Jehovah we need faith first.

and there is the issue, to believe it is Jesus doing it takes faith, I only Hope it is Jesus doing it.

I am struggling to BELIEVE

I will say a prayer for God to comfort you and strengthen your faith. A lot of Christians go through a dry period and start to doubt certain things such as salvation.

your prayers are appreciated as I am at my wits end to know what to do
