".... Have faith in God. I assure you that whoever tells this hill to get up and throw itself in the sea and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him."
Friends, why is it that we so completely underestimate the power of faith? We are children of God, we are His disciples and we share in His almighty power.
We doubt ourselves far too much and sell ourselves short too often. It is time that we lay claim to what has been given, through faith.
Could you imagine life as a superhero? Saving the lives of many and changing the outcome of situations that would otherwise end up in disaster would be absolutely brilliant. Thing is, if our faith measures up, we can DO it. Why? Because God's Word says so.
Luke 1:37: “For no word of God shall be void of power.”
Faith makes us stronger and, sometimes I wonder if we even understand what exactly faith is. I once heard it explained by a very unlikely source, a character in one of my favourite novels by author Stephen King. The guy more or less said: “Faith is when you sit in a chair, knowing that it wouldn’t break and spill you to the floor. You trust it will hold.” [from ‘Pet Sematary’ by Stephen King]
I know you are all gasping at the fact that I actually read these books, but stop focusing on the origin of the explanation and see the point I’m trying to make, please. Faith is trusting that something will be as you expect it will. Without a shred of doubt. You accept it as fact.
When we pray and ask God for something, the human in us whispers: “Why do you even ask? You know this won’t happen.” Doubting Thomas?? Yes, indeed. Actually, I suspect it is not the human in us that does the whispering, it is Satan, trying to sow uncertainty to orchestrate failure.
If you throw faith into the equation, if you believe your prayers will be answered beyond a shadow of a doubt, you can silence that whisper.
What are you waiting for? Give it a try….and BELIEVE.
