J.C. Ryle a well-known bible scholar of yesteryear once said, “doubting does not prove that a man has no faith, but only that his faith is small. And even when our faith is small, the Lord is ready to help us.” In the first 19 verses of Matthew chapter 11 we are going to see one of Jesus’ greatest servants, John the Baptist experience doubts about his faith. Like John, when we earnestly seek Jesus in those difficult moments the Lord does not turn us away for having a small faith. It shows us that even when we do experience seasons of doubt God still uses us mightily for His purposes.

“…doubting does not prove
that a man has not faith, but
only that his faith is small. And
even when our faith is small,
the Lord is ready to help us.”
10. Malachi 3:1
“Behold, I send my messenger, and he
will prepare the way before me. And
the Lord whom you seek will suddenly
come to his temple; and the
messenger of the covenant in whom
you delight, behold, he is coming, says
the LORD of hosts.
