Believe It!
Jesus answered, "Have faith in God. I tell you the truth. You
can say to this mountain, 'Go, mountain, fall into the sea.'
And if you have no doubts in your mind and believe that the
thing you say will happen, then God will do it for you."
-- Mark 11:22-23 (ERV)
KEY THOUGHT:
Jesus had done a spectacular nature miracle in withering the fig tree
with his command (Mark 11:12-21). Jesus wants his closest followers to
understand that they can do amazing things too, if they will truly
believe. Bottom line: Jesus wants us to pursue his will without thought
of limitations and without fear of asking too much. "Have faith!" our
Lord tells us, "and ask without doubt." Let's do these things!
TODAY'S PRAYER:
O Father, today I want to ask you for something that does not seem
possible. I know this cannot be accomplished without your power and
blessing. So I ask this of you in the name of Jesus my Lord ... (Please
share with the Father your personal faith request.) Amen.
