Need to Move a Mountain?

Need to Move a Mountain?

Having a tough day? Week? Month? Year?

Do you need to move a mountain in order to see your dreams come true? Or even just survive physically, emotionally, financially?

I know . . . sometimes it feels impossible to climb the rough terrain in front of us. We think we’re making progress, only to find ourselves losing ground.

When we grow weary from the journey, we need to remember that God is mightier than anything that stands in the way of us experiencing victory.

Find encouragement in these words, taken from the Bible, New International Version (NIV).

Job 9:5

He moves mountains without their knowing it and overturns them in his anger.

Isaiah 40:4

Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low; the rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain.

Isaiah 45:2

I will go before you and will level the mountains; I will break down gates of bronze and cut through bars of iron.

Micah 1:4

The mountains melt beneath him and the valleys split apart, like wax before the fire, like water rushing down a slope.

Nahum 1:5

The mountains quake before him and the hills melt away. The earth trembles at his presence, the world and all who live in it.

Matthew 21:21

Jesus replied, “Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and it will be done.”

Mark 11:23

“Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them.

Music often speaks to me more than anything else. So, today I’m sharing the video of the song “Do It Again” by Elevation Worship (see below). But first, here are some of the lyrics:

Walking around these walls

I thought by now they’d fall

But You have never failed me yet

Waiting for change to come

Knowing the battle’s won

For You have never failed me yet.

I’ve seen You move, You move the mountains

And I believe, I’ll see You do it again

You made a way, where there was no way

And I believe, I’ll see you do it again.

Wow! Aren’t those powerful words? God has moved mountains before—and he’ll do it again! For you! Do you believe that?

What mountains are you trying to conquer today? How do you plan to move them out of your way?
