What is your mountain? You may feel as though you have a mountain range, and the trek looks endless. The terrain is rugged, and the battle is real!
These mountains are often debilitating and can range from financial stress to any form of addiction! You may be fighting depression, loneliness, fear, anxiety, or abuse! Your workplace may be a daily challenge; your marriage, relationship, or children might feel like a steady climb!
So if you are standing at the base of your mountain looking up at its peak and feeling overwhelmed, let me offer you a solution.
Mark 11:23 NLT “Then Jesus said to the disciples, ‘Have faith in God. I tell you the truth; you can say to this mountain, ‘May you be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and it will happen. But you must really believe it will happen and have no doubt in your heart.”
I am a living testimony to the validity of this message and scripture. I have a couple of times created mountains with my credit cards! I was so burdened and buried underneath that mountain of debt I didn’t think I was ever going to see daylight.
I prayed my financial mountain to the Lord. I asked for his forgiveness in my lack of control and sense; I asked that my mountain be cast into the sea! I cut up my credit cards and stopped spending frivolously. Once I prayed my peak into the sea, I then every day would thank God that my mountain of debt was gone!
Did it happen overnight? NO!!! That’s where the part of the scripture reads that you must really believe and have no doubt, no matter how long it takes or even on those days when it feels like it never will!
Did my mountains eventually end up dissolved like mud at the bottom of the sea? Yes!!!
I hope if you are looking at a mountain peak today that these words will help get you on track and offer you hope! And remember to constantly stare at the mountain less and stare at the mountain mover more!!!
Be blessed and thank you for joining me. 🥰
