MOUNTAIN MOVING FAITH (#3)


Faith is the problem, not that we don’t have enough of it, but that it has become the whipping boy for our misinterpretation of scriptures. We concoct half-truth doctrines then blame our faith when they don’t produce the desired results, asking amiss to satisfy our Self’s lust. Faith is simply to trust in, believe in, rely upon and cling to God. Having faith is not hard: God gives each of His children a unique measure of faith to enable the “Gifts and Callings” they are predestined to walk in. This faith must then, of necessity, be inclusive of saving faith and justifying faith as the foundation for faith, the condition of the power of the believer. And it only takes a mustard seed smidgen of faith to get the job done. When we get our doctrine right we will find we had “mountain moving” faith all along. We were just trying to move the wrong mountain. When we petition God according to our will and not His will our faith is reduced to wishful thinking, for He does not hear... and He does not answer...
