\u201cFor assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, \u2018Be removed and be cast into the sea,\u2019 and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.\u201d\u00a0Matthew 11:23 (NKJV)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine seeing a famous preacher somewhere along the road, speaking to a tree and cursing it aloud. Not only does this preacher curse the tree, but he turns to you and says, \u201cIf you say to a mountain, be removed, it will be done.\u201d Interestingly, this is not fiction. Jesus himself was seen cursing a fig tree, by His disciples, and to their amazement, the fig tree dried up! When they questioned Him about this, He told them that they, by their faith, could do the seemingly impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bible uses the word \u201cfaith\u201d in various contexts. One example is Saving Faith, which relates to salvation. However, in our anchor text, Jesus refers to Charismatic Faith\u2014the unwavering belief in God for supernatural intervention. A powerful example of this is the woman who suffered from bleeding for twelve years (Luke 8:43-48). Upon hearing about Jesus’ ministry, she believed in His power to heal her (Matthew 9:21). Demonstrating her faith, she pushed through the crowd just to touch the hem of His garment. In response, Jesus affirmed, \u201cYour faith has healed you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The real question is: Do you genuinely believe that God can intervene in your situation, no matter what it may be? Faith isn\u2019t just about believing\u2014it\u2019s about acting on that belief. In what ways have you demonstrated your faith in His power and promises?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The demonstrations of faith recorded in Scripture serve as examples to inspire and strengthen our hope (Romans 15:4). It is our responsibility to study, meditate on, and follow these examples. What you hear shapes what you believe, what you believe influences what you speak, and what you speak determines what you experience! Hold firm to faith, declare God\u2019s truth over every situation, and witness His mighty intervention in your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dear Believer, God desires for you to prosper in every way and live in good health (3 John 1:2). Don\u2019t just believe that He can do it\u2014believe that He will do it. He is willing, and He wants you to experience His goodness in every area of your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you go through today and beyond, refuse to give doubt and unbelief any place in your heart. God has spoken\u2014we believe it, declare it, and witness it come to pass!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
