Believe!

This past Sunday, God called me to a share a tough message about Believing in God. As I prayed about the passage from Mark 11:22-24, God made it clear to me that there is belief and then there is BELIEF! There is a belief which is stuck in our head and which doesn't really move us or inspire us.

Jesus talks about a belief or faith that will move mountains. This type of belief shapes the way we talk. This type of deep belief in God stirs us to pray and hold to God when others are looking elsewhere. Imagine as we become people who are so stirred to believe in God in all circumstances that we are moved by the possiblities of God rather than the size of our problem.

Does this type of belief come easy? No! Will God answer all our prayers the way we want...immediately, or does our mountain of problems get removed by God one shovel full at a time?

God is calling us to believe in Him and His faithfulness and love.

What struggle are you looking at that you know that you need to ask God to do something about?
