BECOMING THE BEST VERSION OF YOURSELF
Why Divided Faith Is Unstable Faith
Scripture offers a clear principle that applies directly to everyday life: no one can function effectively while being pulled in two opposing directions.
“No one can serve two masters.” — Matthew 6:24
When faith begins to compete with other priorities, subtle shifts start to occur. Obedience becomes selective rather than consistent. Prayer becomes occasional instead of instinctive. Convictions become flexible, adjusted to fit convenience or comfort. Over time, faith becomes conditional activated only when circumstances feel favorable.
You may still believe in God, but you’re no longer fully leaning on Him. Decision-making becomes unstable because trust is divided.
“A double-minded person is unstable in all their ways.” — James 1:8
Unshakable faith develops when trust is undivided, when God is relied on without competition and followed without reservation.
Reflection:
When pressure hits, where do I run first? What gets my time, attention, and emotional energy before God?
What am I trusting to make me feel secure? Awareness always precedes transformation.
