How can we deal with doubt as Christians?

Doubt is part of the human experience, even for saints like John the Baptist. The key to overcoming doubt lies in anchoring our faith in the unwavering promises of God. The Scriptures remind us that God understands our frailties: 'He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust' (Psalm 103:14). Engaging with Scripture, praying, and seeking fellowship with other believers provide avenues for receiving encouragement and clarification. In John 20:27, Jesus tells Thomas to 'not be faithless, but believing,' indicating that doubt can be transformed into faith through engagement with Christ. Prayer and firm trust in God’s sovereignty help rid believers of anxiety and doubt.
