So, where is your mustard seed? Where do you place your faith? Our pastor says "How you pray and what you pray says a lot about how you see God". If you think God can do anything, He can move mountains, and He loves you and gives you your hearts desires, what would you ask him for right now? You would have NO LIMITS if you believe who the Bible tells us God is, who God really is! If he said yes to your prayers, what would you ask Him for right now? And the flip side of that is would your prayers make an impact? Would your prayers make change in anything or anyone's life? Our needs are important and God tells us He will give us the desires of our hearts. But God is a people God. He loves people. He wants us to love people and to pray for people.
So, where is your mustard seed? Is your faith in yourself? Do you believe only what YOU have the strength for? If you think "yes", then stop right now and begin spiritual warfare of praying yourself to freedom! God can do anything. You need to start praying BIG prayers. Start believing and put your faith in Him that he can do anything. God can do immeasurable more than we can ask or even imagine. Hold on. Read that again! God can do immeasurably more than we can ASK or even IMAGINE! WOW! He can and will do so much more than we can even think to ask Him. SO START ASKING HIM! Don't accept pain, anguish, or anything other than His joy and peace. Give them to God and let him take them away. But you have to, have to, have to believe and know that He can do it!
Here is my mustard seed.
Monday my mom was pronounced dying. Think about that for a second. Monday I was told my mom might live until Saturday. She was dying. She was on oxygen with a fever, possible infection, and not eating or drinking. Let's be honest for a minute here. I lived in fear. I said I had faith for God but started praying God would take her peacefully. So, let's put this basically. I said I believed God could heal my mom but I was planning for her funeral and praying she would die peacefully. THAT IS NOT FAITH! THAT. IS. FEAR!
Our church has been in a season of 21 days of prayer. Praise Jesus! Every morning the beautiful people of the church gather together to worship the Lord, proclaim His truths, encourage our family, and spend time praying and praising God. What a BEAUTIFUL season to be in when you get a call of death. Without knowing the situation, the pastor got up Tuesday morning and said this.
Pray big prayers. Pray for God to heal diseases that have never been healed before. Pray for God to do things that don't even make sense to the human mind.BAM! Right there, God was talking to me. Don't accept this call from death. God has ALREADY gained victory over it. God has already defeated it. YOU HAVE ALREADY WON THROUGH THE BLOOD OF JESUS! Don't accept it.
Well, of course I am just balling my eyes out. I've already made arrangements to miss work, take off class, get my husband to the funeral, picked out my outfit for the funeral, get my dogs taken care of, and here is God telling me to FIGHT for her. It's not over.
I decided then and there that I would fast and pray for her miraculous recovery, for a healing that can not be explained. The first update I got that day was that her fever was gone and she had taken in some liquids. PRAISE JESUS! ALL the glory be to His name! Updates got better and better as they went on!
I made my way, four hours away, to where she was. When I got to her she was sitting in her chair with oxygen on. She looked at me and smiled. PRAISE JESUS! The next day she was taken off of the oxygen. PRAISE JESUS! The next day she was eating solid food, drinking like a camel, no oxygen, no fever, sitting up, trying to talk, laughing and smiling. I mean seriously! The only explanation requires ALL praise to the Lord and the healing blood of Jesus! Can I get an Amen??
Here we live in a world of "pray for her quick and peaceful death" and God is providing her QUICK and miraculous LIFE! No one and I mean NO ONE can sit here and tell me her healing was ANYTHING other than the miraculous healing of God. Every single step of her recovery deserves ALL praises to the One True King!
He cares about you. He cares about your life. He cares what you are going through and what you are hurting from. He wants to give you the desires of your heart. So, LET HIM.
It is your time to take a step in faith. Show the world your mustard seed and go move mountains in your life and the lives of those around you.No one can deny the healing power of Jesus. There is just no other way.
And you don't have to go this alone. Get people on board your prayer team. Find people who will pray the praise and victory that God has already won, not pray the problem. Remember, God has already won this battle. You have already conquered this. Through the blood of Jesus I pray your problem come to it's glorious victory that has already been won. Through the comfort and the peace of the Holy Spirit I pray you find peace and discernment to let God carry you in joy through this time. Prayer and praise break down walls. So, start praising him for the victory you've already won. Christ before you and Christ behind you. You are Hupernikao.
So, I ask two things of you. One, please continue to pray for my mom as we are praying for a MIRACULOUS recovery from a disease that has never been "cured". But we know that God is Jehovah Rapha, our Healer. We know that He is our strength! I am specifically asking for brain to be rebuilt, muscle to be strengthened, and for my mom to walk out of that care facility ready to live her life for Christ! Two, I am asking you where is your mustard seed? Where does your faith lay? What, today, needs your faith more than anything else? Go, pray with the faith and belief that God is saying "Yes" to all of your desires. That is when you see miracles occur. Have boldness and confidence in the Lord.
