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. Mark 11.22,23

The teaching ministered by the Lord Jesus is simple yet powerful. He is capable to make every defeated person victorious, to heal the sick, and to give the solution to all the problems that we consider impossible. This is how we will truly serve the Almighty. If you follow the instructions ministered by the Lord Jesus, you will find success, freeing yourself from all the enemy’s actions. Whoever follows Jesus walks in the light.

The first lesson is that we must have faith in God; but many times, we believe more in the threats of the enemy than in what the Most High says. There are few Christians that, when they receive a negative message, they stop and examine the situation, and then, even against all the contrary evidences, they order the devil to run away. We are responsible for the way in which we live. It is necessary to learn with Jesus.

Whoever has faith must speak to the mount and the tree (Lk 17.6), or any obstacle. We must not pray for God to remove our “mounts”, for this is not what the Master taught us. He said that we must speak to the problem, demanding it to throw itself in the sea. This may seem absurd for those who do not know the Word of God. However, for us, this is the most complete truth. Do so and you will be rid of your problem.

After ordering the mount to rise and throw itself in the sea, be firm in what you spoke and do not doubt. If you falter, it will be like if declared that you do not have any faith in God or in what He does. Therefore, what you determine will never be fulfilled. The divine power that executes our determinations will not accomplish the work if we doubt. It will be as if we begged for forgiveness to the enemy for such boldness.

Believe that whatever you say will happen. After ordering evil to leave your life, you must believe that the work will be done. It does not matter how impossible that seems to be. The act that you make when you listen to God speaking and determine it is sufficient for it to happen. But if you do not believe, nothing that you determine will be accomplished.

Everything that you say will be done. If you do not assume your position in Christ, your determination will not happen. This step belongs to the Lord and it is one of the reasons why you must follow His orientations. Whoever believes considers that the work is fulfilled even before it manifests. If the servant of God follows the Most High’s orientations, the work will be done, even if there is no visible result.

Those who obey and follow the divine directions make the difference. This was the way that Jesus, His disciples, and other servants lived and obtained success. Everything that the Lord declared is true. Follow the divine orientations and conquer your blessings.

In Christ, with love,
