Matt 17:20
“And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief:
for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye
shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall
remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.”
Mark 4:31-32
“It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when
it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth: But
when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and
shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the
shadow of it.”
Have you ever prayed that God should
increase your faith because you believe your faith is too small to get the job
done? Let me encourage you today and say you have enough faith in you to get
the job done, have your needs met, heal you of that infirmity. How can you say
that you ask? I did not say it, Jesus said it. He said
if you have faith as small as mustard seed, you can say to this mountain,
remove hence to yonder place.
Jesus said, the mountain will move! He did
not stop there, He went further to say something more incredulous to believe:
He said, “and NOTHING shall be impossible unto you”. Now do you know the size
of a mustard seed? It is said it is so small, hardly can it be seen with the naked
eye. Now how small do you think your faith is?
No matter how small, Jesus said even if it
is so small that you hardly feel you have got it, with that size of faith if
you will say to the mountain be removed, Jesus said it will move! Let me
proffer some reasons why such faith will move mountains.
Firstly, because it is a faith that is
rooted in God and is directed towards God. Secondly, it is because, the
scripture says that when that mustard seed size faith is planted, it does not
remain the same size, it grows and becomes greater than what it is planted
against.
That
is when you put your mustard seed size faith against the mountain, it keeps
growing until it becomes larger than the mountain, and that is when the
mountain moves. But when you keep looking at the smallness of your and
because of its size you do not put it against anything, it remains small and
never gets anything done. So, take your faith today and speak to the mountain
in your life, and watch it obey you.
