The bible says in both Matthew and Luke that if we have faith as small as a mustard seed we can say to a mountain be moved and it will move. What does this mean? To me it means that God is not asking to have superior faith right now, in the midst of the storm, but just a little faith. That little bit can go a long way to show God that we trust Him. Think about it -Faith as small as a mustard seed. How tiny is that?
It’s tiny!! That’s all God is asking for…. He just wants us to have the tiniest bit of faith in Him to be able to bring His promises to pass in our lives. Sometimes that tiny amount of faith is all we have to give. Give to Him, trust Him and believe.
A very dear friend of mine was going through an extremely tough time in his life. He was struggling with a relationship and if he should continue it. We talked about it and I asked him if he prayed about it and he said yes. But he said he still struggled with his faith. He wanted to believe that everything was going to work out, but he was afraid to have faith because of the fear of it not working. We’ve all been here, it may not have been a relationship, it could be belief for healing your body or a better job. It still takes faith.
My challenge to you is this. Can you have faith as small as a mustard seed and believe God for what He promised?
Matthew 17:20 – I tell you the truth, if you have 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)
