Moving your mountain
At a point in every Christians life we all face difficult situation, crisis, problem and we thought nothing can change or help us in this situation , the type of situation is our mountain.
What is your mountain, what are you going through that you think it can be solved, that you think it's difficult, with faith you can move all mountains because the Bible says:
Who art thou, O great mountain? before
Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it. Zechariah4:7
Matthew 21:19-22
19 And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away.
20 And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree withered away!
21 Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea;
it shall be done.
22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
There are several ways of dealing with
mountains, and today we will be considering seven of these. The first option we will consult is to turn back. You can say that because a mountain is blocking your way to success, you will no longer move forward. This was the negative attitude of the children of Israel in Numbers 14:1-4. The second way is to walk around the mountain, thereby wasting time and effort. For those who are born of God, going round a mountain is not an option.
Our Father's desire for us is to always move forward, in spite of what lies ahead of us. This is why he commanded Moses to charge the children of Israel to move forward, in spite of the Red Sea in front of them (Exodus 14:15). You will move forward today in Jesus' Name. The third way of dealing with mountains is to climb them. This may require a lot of effort but it is still better than going round in circles, and it is far better
than going back. The fourth way you can deal with a mountain is to bore through the mountain or dig a tunnel through it. When Moses lifted up his hands before the Red Sea, God caused the east wind to blow all through the night, and this created a way in the sea for the children of Israel to pass through (Exodus 14:21). Just as the east wind blew to create a road for the children of Israel through the sea, creating a tunnel through a mountain will require the assistance of the Holy Spirit.
The fifth way to deal with a mountain is to blast it out of the way. In Joshua 6:20, when the children of Israel came face-to-face with the wall of Jericho, the Lord instructed them to shout. They did, and not did the wall fall, it was shattered and reduced to nothing. Indeed, God sent dynamite from heaven to blast the whole wall down. The sixth way we can deal with mountains is to relocate them. In Mark 11:22-23, the Lord says that if you have faith in God, you can command a mountain to change its position or get out of your way, and itwill obey you.
If you move mountains you succeed in doing something that is very difficult and requires a lot of hard work. If you have faith , you can move mountains.
I realized then that I was more attached to my mountain than I had been to God. But God had always loved and given me more than I thought I was losing. God’s Grace is what has allowed my tears to dry, and is what has given my heart fulfillment and purpose. Since that day of realization I have stepped out with my mustard seed faith, small yet mighty, and I have been made aware of so many other men who are fighting this battle and are searching for the assurance that God has not forgotten them. My heart has been opened wide to the possibility of adoption, and I have learned to wait on a God who fights for me. Because of this mountain, my faith has grown deeper and I am more firmly rooted in my God who has proven over and over to me that He is present.
Jesus really does mean for us to move mountains. He wants us to live in the bold joy of knowing that nothing will be impossible for us.

Stunning, this is a great piece. All we have to give any mountain a walking request is only a mustard seed measure confidence. May God push us to dependably practice our power in him in all circumstance
Wow, this is a wonderful piece. All we need to give any mountain a marching order is just a mustard seed size faith. May God help us to always exercise our authority in him in all situation
We all need to be deeply rooted in Christ so nothing will be able to shake us or take us away from his love.
Thanks for your post
I couldn't agree more with this:
Like you've rightly explained, our mountains connote challenges, and issues of life, generally, that appears difficult to surmount.
However, Scriptures says with God all things are possible. So, there's no problem or challenge that anyone seem to be going through, which bigger than God Almighty.
Thanks for sharing brother.
Stay awesome!
