Always in faith

"But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind." James 1.6

To ask in faith is not asking with a feeling of certainty. To ask in faith means leaving your needs in God's hands because of what He promised.

Have faith in God

"So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God." Mark 11.22

Jesus demands of His followers to have faith in God. If faith were a feeling of the heart, how to make one "feel" the faith in God? Impossible. Jesus does not demand anything impossible from His disciples. This requirement from the Lord is concerning the faith-obedience or practice of the Word of God and nothing else.

The teaching

"Let the righteous strike me; it shall be a kindness. And let him rebuke me; it shall be as excellent oil; let my head not refuse it." Psalm 141.5

When reprimanded, those who are born of the Spirit consider the teaching, learn and give thanks to God. But those who are born of the flesh, the tares, get angry, feel like they have to defend themselves and still hold grudges.

The cry of the believer

"Let the groaning of the prisoner come before You; according to the greatness of Your power, preserve those who are appointed to die." Psalm 79.11

This groaning is not by just anyone, but someone who believes in the promises of the God of Abraham, and yet is a captive. Times have changed but the moaning continues...
O Mighty One of Jacob, rise up from Your Throne and come to the rescue of those who who put their trust in You!

God and Abraham

"Look to Abraham your father, And to Sarah who bore you;For I called him alone, and blessed him and increased him.” Isaiah 51.2

Abraham symbolizes the Lord God, Isaac symbolizes Jesus and the spirit - or faith - that moved Abraham to sacrifice his dream was the Spirit of God. Nobody in their right mind would subject themselves to obey the Word of God unconditionally, without being moved by the Holy Spirit.

Answer

"I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will look forth to see what he will speak with me, and what I shall answer concerning my complaint." Habakkuk 2.1

We have to be filled with that spirit in order to take possession of our rights. If God exists, as we believe, why would we accept any less than His Promises?

Make haste

“Therefore do my thoughts cause me to answer, and for this I make haste." Job 20.2

If faith in the Lord Jesus tells us He won it all for us, consequently,when we act our faith with attitudes, the response to what we have been crying out for must be immediate.
