Too Good to Not Believe - Brandon Lake
Matt 21:21 Jesus replied, “Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done
to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and it will be done.
Here is what I am learning about faith and myself. In my head I know these things to be true. I also know that I
do not live or believe as if this were true. Unbelief is our biggest stumbling block. I am currently doing a study
by Beth Moore called “Believing God.” I have read this passage and the other ones like it: Matthew 17:20 He
replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can
say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” NIV
Luke 17:6 He replied, “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree,
‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you. NIV
What is your first thought? I admit it, I think yup I can manage mustard seed faith but I cannot seem to move
anything. Except maybe sometimes myself off the couch. But yeah the struggle is real. So what are these
passages suggesting? God will do miracles if you have faith in Him, that you believe He can do anything as
long as it is what He wills not what we will. Often as I am facing mountains or things that seem impossible
I try to go it alone, do it myself and then when the situation becomes hopeless I ask God to intervene.
It is a pattern I do over and over expecting different results. I think that is the definition of insanity.
I plead the 5th on that. The other thing I find myself doing is asking God for intervention and then not
liking the results. I was sure the outcome would be what I wanted! I am trusting Him in this season of
living out not having had my way and waiting to see what He has in store because it is always better
than what I had planned. In this way I am like the Israelites who wanted to go back to slavery in Egypt.
Exodus 16:3. Hard to imagine but here I sit.
Response question: Have you encountered a seemingly impossible situation? What was the result?
