Enemies of Prayer: Part 3: Praying for Faith

Another Enemy is Praying for Faith.

How many times have we gone to the altar and to the prayer room to pray for more faith. What a delusion that was.

You never heard of anyone getting more faith or having their faith increased by praying for it.

Why? Because the prayer for faith is a prayer based on unbelief.

If unbelief were not your master, you wouldn't need faith, so praying for faith is an absolute proof that you will not get it, and that you are insulting the Father by doing it.

Why, if a child should say to its mother, "Mama, I want you to increase my faith in you. I've been trying all morning to believe that what you said about that trip that Saturday were true." The child is insulting the integrity of his mother.

So when you pray for faith you are insulting the author of the Word. You don't intend to, but you are doing that.
-- E.W. Kenyon, In His Presence
