Mrs Nancy Dufresne-A Sound, Disciplined Mind
“WHERE IS YOUR FAITH?”
I remember a time of testing I went through years ago as a young
Christian. During that time, thoughts came against my mind in a way
I hadn’t experienced before, and I handled it wrong. I kept trying to
deal with those thoughts mentally, and as I did, they only held me in
the mental arena. When troubling thoughts came, I should have resisted
the devil by speaking the Word, and then refused to listen to them
or meditate on the thoughts that were coming to me, refusing to touch
them in my thought life. But because I turned the thoughts over in my
mind, I was held in the mental arena. I didn’t stay in the spirit, which
is the arena of faith, so the struggle continued.
I had just started preaching, and my husband and I were conducting
meetings in a church during this time. I was scheduled to
preach the Sunday morning service, but the last thing I wanted to do
that morning was preach; I was having such a struggle. As I was sitting
on the platform during the song service, all of a sudden, Jesus
came up the side aisle, walked up the steps to the platform and came
and stood next to me. (I didn’t see Jesus with my physical eyes. All
of this happened by the word of knowledge. Although I didn’t see
Him, I knew exactly where He was at all times and what He was saying.)
I thought to myself, “This is it. He’s going to deal with this!”
Then to my amazement, He asked me a question. “Where’s your
faith?”
