“If you have faith in God and don’t doubt, you can tell this mountain to get up and jump into the sea, and it will.” Mark 11:23 CEV
Listen To God’s Truth
Had many mountains in your life? I don’t believe many of us could answer ‘no’ to that particular question! How many of us have tried to ‘cast them into the sea’ – and nothing appears to have changed!
Make Believe?
So…. what’s gone wrong? Did we imagine that Jesus made up His statement about speaking to the mountain? No – because God’s Word doesn’t lie. Am I not clever enough to understand? No – Jesus wouldn’t have made a statement like that if it wasn’t for each one of us! So what am I missing…..
Action!
Some of us tend to ‘talk about’ our mountains – rather than getting on and doing something about them. We’re instructed by Jesus to talk directly to the mountains in our lives – which is very different from talking about them.
Listening
But…. if we’re going to have power and authority in what we say – we have to be talking in obedience out of what the Lord shows us – NOT what we think. And that means listening to the Holy Spirit. And, a critical point – we need to ask Him to show us any unforgiveness in our hearts – and deal with it, if He shows us there is. You see, at the heart of it all is our relationship with Father – so that we walk in His way – not our own!
Join with me and make this declaration over your life: “Mountains are moving out of my way, and are being thrown into the sea.”
God is so good to us! Be blessed…. 🙏❣️
