Speaking to Your Mountain - Bold Declarations of Faith!

Image
  Speaking to your Mountain In Mark 11:21-26, we find an often-misinterpreted and misapplied passage about the power of our words and the faith to back them up. Specifically, Jesus tells his disciples that if they speak to a mountain, telling it to be lifted up and thrown in the sea, it will happen for them. The "Name It and Claim It" Crowd Of course, this verse gets pulled out of context by the "Name It and Claim It" prosperity gospel folks. They focus only on the part about speaking to mountains, forgetting the sandwich bread - which is having faith in God first and operating in forgiveness second. They want to "name and claim" cars, houses, and bling without any thought of delighting in and having faith in God. Missing the "Have Faith in God" Part Jesus begins this teaching by pointing back to the fig tree that he had cursed, which then withered. He tells them in verse 22 to "Have faith in God." Our faith and expectations must be gro...

Joy of Revelation

Image
  Have you ever received a revelation that continues to unfold meaning over years?  I had an experience where the Spirit revealed a particular truth that I just couldn't let go of. When it first came to me, I was excited by the insight. I started seeing hints of its meaning everywhere I looked in scripture. I would pray and meditate on it daily, taking notes as I went. For a while, it felt like everywhere I turned in the Bible this revelation stared back at me.  Going Stale After some time though, my momentum stalled. I stopped gaining new traction on its implications. I relegated the revelation to my backburner - still precious but not an active pursuit. Breakthrough!  Then suddenly, I had a breakthrough. By grace, I gained a far deeper grasp of the same revelation. With fresher eyes I saw connections that eluded me before and understood more profound layers of meaning. The renewal of insight was mind-blowing, spurring genuine life transformation. Seek God diligentl...

This post explores why we must boldly speak God’s truth despite discomfort, as obedience pleases the Lord and failure to do so robs others from receiving His keys to freedom. Opening Thoughts In the beginning, it is as if God gives us those “easy” words of knowledge to deliver. But as we grow in the gift, there come the words we don’t really want to deliver - those difficult words too scary to tell people who could react badly.  Don’t let fear stop you. Here are a couple good reasons to overcome the fear and share the word anyway: Two Key Reasons to Push Past the Fear  1.
