FAITH MOVES MOUNTAIN (5)
(Message by Tanny Keng)
1. Faith moves mountain
a) We are in the last days now. Peter told us in Acts 2 that the outpouring of the Holy Spirit was the prophecy of Joel chapter 2 being fulfilled.
(Acts 2:16-17 NKJV)
But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh…
b) The last days are the days of the expanding Kingdom of God and then the end shall come.
c) When the Lord began to speak into my heart that He is the Mountain, I said, “Lord show me in your word”, I then began to see many places where God and the Kingdom are symbolized as a Mountain. But my biggest question was “Lord what about where it says that if we believe we can cast the Mountain into the sea, it seems disrespectful to throw you in the sea.?” When I asked this I immediately knew the answer. When you put a Mountain in the sea you make an island, the sea represents lost humanity, drowning in sin, bondage, despair, and hopelessness, and they need a Savior. We do not bring them a little lifesaver so they can float. But we bring them Jesus, the Mountain, where they can climb out of the sea, take refuge, and be safe from the storms of life.
(Psalms 27:5 NKJV)
For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock.
(Mark 11:22-26 NKJV)
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. “And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses. “But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.”
