What mountains are you dealing with
Matthew 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. Jesus is dealing with His disciples here in there unbelief. They were unable to cast the devil out of a mans son. What are we unable to cast out due to our unbelief? There are mole hills that come our way that we turn into mountains because of our lack of faith. Could Jesus say to us what He said to His disciples in vs 17: Matthew 17:17 Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.
Are there things in our lives that God has placed there that we will have to learn to deal with? Absolutely. He gives us help in those situations. 2 Corinthians 12:8-9 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. [9] And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. However, we continue to battle things in our lives too often just because of our unbelief. How many times have we said: -How am I going to get past this?
-How am I going to get thru this?
-How are they dealing with that.
Answer: our faith in God. It sounds too simple, but that’s really it. If we put our complete confidence in Him, then we can tell those “mountains” to “ remove hence to yonder place” and the6 can be removed.
