The faith that moves the mountains

in #sc-v5 years ago

Reading to reflect: Matthew 17: 20
Jesus said to them: Because of your little faith; for verily I say unto you, That if ye have faith as a mustard seed, say to this mountain, Get thee hence out of the way, and it will pass away; and nothing will be impossible for you.

The bible tells us about many men and women who managed to perform feats and miracles through a word called "faith".
Throughout Bible history we find men and women who managed to impact God through faith, but also tells us the failure of many for lack of faith.
It is for this reason that Jesus tells his disciples: by your little faith; Quitense and she would flee from you, because nothing in God is impossible.

When we speak of faith we are talking about major words, many speak of faith, but few people manage to live it. Certainly we need to believe with conviction that Jesus is the powerful one of the world, of our lives, of the impossible ...
Faith is the means by which we can observe the grace of God and be worthy of his wonderful blessings.

Hebrews 11 gives us a true description of faith, tells us how faith works. Faith is a firm conviction of things that are not seen, and sure hope of a future reward. In that sense, faith is the certainty that is expected.

The ancients were the saints of the old testament, many of whom are mentioned with a good testimony, not because of their achievements, personal sanctity, or passive acceptance of the divine promises, but because of an active certainty that was expressed in obedience, perseverance and sacrifice. That is why our faith in the creative action of God is evidence "of what is not seen".

For example, the worship of Abel in the Bible shows that those who truly adore must come with faith and present the sacrifice that God requires. Also the transposition of Enoch to heaven, ignoring physical death, took place because it pleased God by taking the word and living according to it.
Devotion means concentrating on a particular effort, a purpose or cause. He who consecrates himself to Jesus recognizes his human propensity to discouragement and seeks to overcome it.

Nothing pleases God as much as firmness in faith in all that He is and has promised.
Similarly, the obedience of Noah in building the ark was a tangible proof of his trust in the word of God. In that same order of ideas, Abraham demonstrated his faith by obeying God and leaving his home in Ur, traveling to unknown lands, living long years in the promised land as a foreigner ... Joseph expressed complete faith in the promises concerning the earth of Canaan, and spoke of the future exit of Egypt from the children of Israel.
In faith there is a combination of obedience and good witness, and although the Lord only tells his disciples: Because of your little faith; for verily I say unto you, That if ye have faith as a mustard seed, say to this mountain, Get thee hence out of the way, and it will pass away; and nothing will be impossible for you. I was simply telling you who has faith, has God and who has God, has everything and if you believe, everything will be possible.

faith has its evidences and must be demonstrated, therefore faith is a scale of levels, reason why Jesus says "if you had faith like a mustard seed ..." you would do wonders.
Each of us has received a measure of faith, and we are getting it through the levels of agreement how we use it.
God must be believed at all times, in all places. Do not let the mountains discourage you, because there is no mountain that God can not remove

Lift your flag always for freedom, a true freedom in all areas of your life and believe it because God has promised.
We have to learn to speak with the language of heaven, the language of the kingdom, to talk about things as if they were there even though we do not see it.
Certainly we need faith to be able to live, we need faith to grow spiritually, we need faith to believe God, we need faith to guide our families, we need to grow in faith, because without faith it is impossible to please God.

The problems should not weaken us. On the contrary, they should strengthen us and confront any adversity with faith.
Remember that no one is so strong in this world to not need God

Excellent meditation @ricci01, each one has a measure of faith, but not everyone has that level to move mountains, we need to have that measure of faith we can tell what represents( the mountains in our lives) that are removed to be able to exercise faith that touches God and look at miracles.

Faith moves mountains, it is a theme that has been spoken for many years and still has that beautiful imortance over the Faith. Blessings sister @ricci01. @windermarin
