Scripture is so crystal clear that faith receives from God. BUT - Because not everyone gets healed, people say that faith is scam. It's the most ridiculous thing ever. It's unbelief through and through. Looking at the world to define God is the definition of UNBELIEF.

Peter looked at the WAVES of the SEA. And doubted the word of God. And he SANK. Even though Christ told Peter to walk on water, Peter doubted mid-way and STILL sank! If you think our response doesn't matter, I honestly don't know what Scriptures you're reading.

BECAUSE:

1. God wanted him to walk on water.
2. Peter doubted and couldn't. Even though God wanted it for him.
3. Jesus told him why he couldn't when He said, "you of little faith"... Why did you doubt?
4. Peter believed it was possible because he SAW Christ do it.
5. Jesus' example is OUR example. God is with us!
6. Jesus commissioned us to do His works!
7. We are called to be disciples! That means we learn and grow BEYOND our own personal experiences!
8. Skepticism isn't discernment. Bereans were more noble because of their eagerness not their skepticism.
