Mustard Seed Faith
“Then He (Jesus) went home, and the crowd gathered again so that they could not even eat. And when his family heard it, they went out to (forcibly) seize him, for they were (repeatedly) saying, “He is out of his mind.” Mark 3:20, 21
“For not even his brothers believed in him.” John 7:5
Thank You God for this gift of faith You have bestowed upon me. I realize truly that only me and You know the measure of my faith and the world and not even my family will ever understand. So I need to stop trying to explain my dreams and goals to others because they can instead try to dim it or Instill doubt in me. Lord I know faith is not measured by the amount of fear I have but my ability to press on, to take that step out of the boat and watch You do the miraculous rest by fixing my eyes on You and You alone. “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added onto you” Matthew 6:33
Dear Father I’m so grateful for this gift of faith as it brings me such peace and rest knowing that all Your promises are true and will come to pass in my life. Thank You for opening the eyes of my heart Lord and opening my mind to understanding. I praise You! Your amazing grace restores my soul. I’m aware it is impossible to please You without faith so please help me to exercise this faith and please help my faith to grow continuously so that I may carry out Your kingdom purposes for me on earth. The kind of faith that will help me gain all my heart desires according to Your will. I’m so blessed and so highly favored by You oh God. I know I didn’t summon up this faith but the trials You’ve taken me through have built up my faith. I know I’m human and will still feel fear and anxiety but Lord help to move past it and remember that You didn’t give me a spirit of doubt or fear but of boldness, love and a sound mind.
Lord I pray that I may live by Your Word always and obey Your commandments because I was saved for these. May I be a vessel for good works so others may see that and give all the glory to You. Lord thanks for making me an OVERCOMER. I know it was only by Your Spirit that I’ve made it this far and I’m still alive today. The greater the test the grater the TESTIMONY! I’m so grateful for everything Lord. I desire to walk on water in every aspect of my life dear Lord. Please help me to continue to fix my eyes on You only and not get distracted by the noise, strength, sound or smell of the storm and waves surrounding me. “Peace, be Still” is what I’ll declare to anything not of You. Thank You Lord for making me how You made me. I’m forever grateful. In Jesus’s Holy mighty name I pray. Amen.
He did not give up and we should not give up. Keep walking in faith. Do not stop.
‘For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, so that you won’t grow weary and lose heart.” Hebrews 12:3
“Therefore, do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised. “ Hebrews 10:35, 36
My deepest desire Lord is to do Your Will. May it come to pass in my life. I surrender everything I have and all I am to You Lord gladly. Help me to fix my eyes only on heavenly things Lord. I aim to make You proud. I love You Lord with all my heart and I thank You for the present which is such a gift.
Dear saint, your faith and your relationship with God are hidden in your heart. People only see your outward behavior and actions. They cannot see the things of the heart. Again, faith is based upon a personal communication from God to your heart and to your heart alone
“And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.”
-Nietzsche
Hearing from God takes time. It is more of an art than a science. It takes knowing His Word and His voice. It takes a submissive and humble heart to hear clearly from God. It takes effort to seek His face and to make sure that we have heard Him correctly. Do it. Take the time. Then walk on confidently in faith with a receptive heart.
I trust You Lord and I am believing that whatever I ask for according to Your Will will come to pass in Your perfect timing so I will wait. Help me Holy Spirit exercise patience and trust in the one who holds the universe in His Hands. In Jesus name I pray Amen.
