Get a bulldog grip...........

Good morning! I am going to continue with the conquering theme! We all have that giant in our lives that we really don't want to deal with. Heck, we may even be frozen in our tracks when it comes to it. The faith of a mustard seed! Have you seen a mustard seed? They are pretty dang small. So, basically it only takes a small amount of true faith for some major things to happen. Let's dig into the good stuff and see what it tells us..........

Bible Verse:  Mark 11:23 "Truly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is going to happen, it will be granted him"
Did you ever play "king of the mountain" as a child? When you were on high ground, you could shove the others down, even though they were entrenched and determined to overtake you. In Joshua 14, we read that Caleb faced a city of giants, and yet because he had wholly followed the Lord, he had the strength of the Lord and said, "Give me this mountain" (Joshua 14:11-12). All of us face giants every day - giants of doubt, fear, discouragement, financial ruin, sickness, broken relationships. Do you think the giants in the Promised Land took God by surprise? God knew they were there all the time. They were part of His purpose to strengthen His children's faith. It's time you got a bulldog grip on the Word of God and believe what He says to be true. let's have the faith of a mustard seed and believe our giants will flee from us or be under our feet! have a great and faith filled day!
