BELIEVE 2


 Text:  Mark 11:23 *For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.* 


It was established yesterday that you must speak forth whatever you believe, and that you must be specific about what you want the Lord to do in any given situation. 


 *No Doubt*: Jesus said that if you speak to this mountain, be removed and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in your heart, but shall believe that those things which you said shall come to pass; you shall have whatsoever you said.


Doubt is the major reason many could not receive from the Lord. The moment you doubt your prayer/confession, you stand the chance of loosing your ground.  Doubt gives rise to double minded ness. Whenever you doubt, your heart divides into two. And God cannot receive any network from a divided heart. 


Just as a man who tries to look up into heaven and down at the same time will loose focus, and eventually gain nothing, so also is a double minded person. 


James 1:6-8  says "But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.  *A double minded man is unstable in all his ways".* James 1:6-8.


It is clear that a doubtful man cannot receive anything from the Lord. You can imagine the number of times, you have prayed in vain because of doubt. God's word labelled a double minded man as one who is unstable in all his ways. This simply means that such a person will not come into any form of establishment. 


Doubt is a grievous sin and a cancerous disease. *To doubt God and His word is like doubting His existence.* It must be avoided like plague if you are going to see God work mightily on your behalf.


 *DOUBT ALWAYS PUT YOU IN A DISADVANTAGED POSITION, SO GET RID OF IT!* 



BIBLE READING: Mark 11:13-25.


PRAYER FOCUS:


1. Father, help me find grace to always trust and never doubt you and your words in Jesus name.

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...

GULLIBLE BUT INTELLIGENT

Text : Mat 25:31-32  *When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:*   *And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:*  Have you ever wondered why Jesus compared His followers to sheep and not goats?  Sheep has reputation for being stupid, defenceless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool. According to a study by Keith Kendrick, he said in reality, Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are  sent to slaughter. The truth is that sheep are far smarter than we know., All these reasons and more are the basis for Jesus' comparism of His followers with sh...
