“I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go,
throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart
but
believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.”
Mark 11:23
You’ve been faithfully abiding in the
Vine.
You have been faithful to repent of
sin in your life.
You have been quick to say “Yes” to
God’s direction.
And still, the answers to your
prayers have not seemed to come.
What do you do?
You
stand in faith!
You persevere in prayer.
You don’t give up!
Jesus uses and a mountain to
illustrate His point on faith.
What better picture of a natural,
immovable object?
Man has built roads up mountains, around mountains and even
through mountains.
Up, around and through the unmovable
object.
What I am not aware of is any
engineering project to literally move an entire mountain.
As I said, in the natural they would
appear to be immovable.
But with God, all things are possible.
Faith, just the size of a mustard
seed, can move (what seems to be) a huge mountain out of the way in your life.
Why does it not always happen then?
We give up.
We surrender our faith to the doubts
and fears that make that mountain immovable.
Ask God to help you increase your
faith that you might speak, without doubting, to the mountains before you.
I guarantee you that kind of faith,
and the desire to walk in that faith, gets noticed by God.
Stand in faith!
