Believe in the Mustard Seed More Than the Mountain
Mountains are intimidating.
When we face struggles—whether it’s a financial crisis, a health scare, a broken relationship, or a dream that seems out of reach—our first instinct is to measure our strength against the size of the mountain.
And let’s be real: Sometimes that mountain looks way too big. We tend to think we need mountain-sized strength to overcome mountain-sized problems.
But Jesus tells us something radical: Faith isn’t proportional. It’s not linear. It’s not a matter of having enough power to match the obstacle.
It’s about believing in the mustard seed more than you believe in the mountain!
- Do you believe more in God’s ability or in the size of your challenge?
- Do you trust the seed of faith planted in you more than the doubts trying to take root?
- Do you put your focus on what God has promised or on what seems impossible?
That mustard seed of faith? It’s small but mighty. It carries within it the potential for miracles. But it only grows when you put it into action.
You don’t have to see the whole process. You don’t have to know how the mountain will move. You just have to believe in the seed God has given you—and act on it.
So today, stop measuring yourself against the mountain. Start trusting in the mustard seed — trust that it will do what God designed it to do if you do your part — which includes sowing it, nurturing it and eventually harvesting!
