So Jesus answered and said to them, "Have faith in God. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them." - Mark 11:23-24
There can be moments in our lives when we feel like there is a big, gigantic mountain blocking the road to our true destiny. That mountain can be anything from financial troubles, co-workers on the job, family members, health issues, and so on. Because the devil knows that we have a bright and wonderful future in Christ, he is going to do any and everything to stop us. But, we cannot let that happen. We cannot, under any circumstances, be ignorant to satan's devices.
We must have faith in God without any shadow of doubt. We must open our mouths and tell that mountain to move and get out of our way! We can do that because we have authority and power in Jesus name. Besides, why ask God to give you strength to climb the mountain when you can simply speak it out of your way.
Whatever mountain that you are currently facing, speak it and pray it into non-existence. Most importantly, know that whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them. Faith moves mountains, not fear.
"An acorn can grow into an oak tree, but it cannot become a rose bush. You will always be you — a growing, healthy you or a languishing you — but God did not create you to be anybody else. He pre-wired your temperament. He determined your natural gifts and talents. He made you to feel certain passions and desires. He planned your body and mind. Your uniqueness is God-designed." - John Ortberg
