Declare It!
Matthew 17:20 “…I tell you the truth, if you have faith 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, emphasis added)
Did you notice that Jesus did not say if you have faith as big as this mountain, then you can move this situation? The faith size is the seed size. Even if you take the biggest seed, compared to a mountain, it is still very small. So, you may look at your faith and think your faith is small. Read the rest of this entry

Just Believe!
John 6:29 “Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent.” (NIV, emphasis added)

Stay
John 15:4&7“Remain in me, and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me… But if you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted!”

In The Word
Hebrews 4:12 “For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires.”
