I know you have heard the phrase BLIND FAITH. Well, what does that really mean? Simply put, BLIND FAITH means surrendering to God, letting Him have total control of a situation and getting out of His way. Period. Now for some, that is easier said than done. One reason is due to the spirit of DOUBT. We may tend to doubt ourselves and God and His ability to get the job done. So what do you do when you have doubt? Pray and trust God. Proverbs 3:5-6 reads, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your crooked path straight.”
BLIND FAITH also requires us to have a certain level of humility. Sometimes we think we can solve any and everything because of our accomplishments, problems we have solved in the past and or our financial status. But sometimes, while riding on our high horses, we forget that we would not have been able to accomplish anything if not for God giving us wisdom, His grace and mercy.
Here are some steps to help you to be able to have BLIND FAITH. Identify what you can and can’t control, address what you can control and surrender to God what you can’t; meditate on His promises to us like, Jerimiah 29:11, which reads, “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for good and not evil, to give you a future and hope.” Most importantly, you have to operate off of FAITH OVER FEAR, faith in God that He will to do what He said He would do, whether you know what that is or not. 1 Peter 5:7 tells us, “Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about you.” You are not going to win every battle and every fight. There comes a time when you have to just say, “God I surrender all. You got it.” That’s when you will have officially entered THE BLIND FAITH ZONE.
