The Savior says in Matthew 17:20, "For most assuredly I tell you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you." (Italics added).
As believing Christians there is a substantial, higher power available to us. It is the power of faith. It is the same power by which God created the worlds. Faith is a principle of action and of power, and by it the faithful Christian
can influence any number of circumstances when the occasion warrants. Through the bounteous mercy and love of Jesus Christ we receive His grace - a divine means of strength. The power available to us through Jesus Christ is very real.
We are not alone on this earth, and the purpose God has for us is not to fail but to succeed and ultimately to return to God. The purpose for our earthly existence is to give us experience. Sometimes that experience is pleasant and joyful. Other times it is disheartening and unsatisfying. But in every situation, at every age, and whatever our experience, we have the promise of Jesus Christ, "I am with you always, even to the end of the age." (Matthew
28:20). We need not face each day, each trial, and each opportunity alone....
But faith is not just a principle of action. It is also a principle of power. Paul wrote to the Hebrews, "By faith, we understand that the universe has been framed by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible." (Hebrews 11:3). The principle of power that is in God, by which the worlds were made, is faith. It is through this power in God that all things are. All things in heaven, on earth, or under the earth, exist by reason of faith as it exists in HIM! Without faith the world would never have been created; men and women would never have been formed of its dust.
If God formed the earth by faith then faith is a principle of power. If faith is a power that God uses, then faith must be a principle of power in us as well!...
Today is a day of miracles. Believe in miracles. Expect miracles according to your faith. Pray passionately. Actively seek to increase your faith, and with that great gift from God, you can cause great things to occur in your life.
Faith in Jesus Christ is fully sustaining. The Lord will move the mountains blocking your way in your schooling, in your employment, in your marriage, in your family. God is full of mercy, forgiveness, patience, and long-suffering. And Jesus will unlock the treasure house of blessings to anyone who is full of faith.
Faith is power. It is a mystical, divine power that surpasses all we can possibly envision. It is the power by which God functions. It is a power that, over time, can also be yours if you desire it and seek it.
