Faith Will Move Mountains, Part 1
Essential Faith Must Be Connected!
On p. 16 in my book, Essential Faith, I explained how faith is bold and unbending. Faith is an unmovable object which doesn’t give way when met by overwhelming, forceful attacks. Essential faith is immovable and undefeatable because its foundation is immutable, irrefutable truth. Jesus taught, If you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, “Move from here to there,” and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.” (Mt. 17:20 ESV)
According to what I explained in Essential Faith, the weakness of most Christians is we pretend to believe in what God can do, but we don’t believe in the supernatural manifestations of God.
Why is faith an absolute necessity in a believer’s daily walk with Christ? Without faith, the disciples could do nothing without faith, and the father of the lunatic child could receive nothing without faith. Why is that? Faith is more than belief; it is a direct, personal connection with the All-Powerful God. A light bulb cannot shine without being connected to electric power. A sprinkler and hose must be connected to a faucet that is turned on! Essential faith connects you with the omnipotent God of all power.
Absolute surrender of believing we can do anything on our own with complete trust in God’s power makes us immovable objects resisting every temptation and overcoming every attack of Satan or the world.
Reject your own prideful strength and
connect by faith with Christ
to do the impossible!
