It’s Not For A Chosen Few

“Now in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. And Peter, remembering, said to Him, ‘Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You cursed has withered away.’” ~ Mark 11:20-21

As you study the four Gospels, the most impressive thing about Jesus Christ is His words. There is no physical description of Jesus—no comment on His height, weight, hair, eyes, nose, teeth or anything else. But the Gospel records that, “No man ever spoke like this man!”

There was something special about Jesus’ words. He spoke with grace, power and authority. And when He spoke, the sick were healed, demons were cast out and the dead were raised!

When Jesus spoke to the tree and it died, the disciples were awestruck! Now, Jesus could have said, “What do you expect? Hey, I am Jesus, you are not, okay? This is a ‘deity trick’ I’ve learned in heaven! The Father does it, I do it, but don’t any of you earthlings dare to try it. If you do something wrong, your face will blow up!”

But no, Jesus didn’t say that. Instead He said, “Anyone can do what I just did!”

“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 11:23

Friend, in Jesus’ name, your words have dominion over demons, sicknesses and circumstances. Believing for and receiving the miraculous is not the domain of a few, but for all who believe in Christ and trust in God’s Word. So choose to fully utilize this inheritance that is yours today and step out in faith. And give God all the glory as you bear the fruits of faith in your life!

Prayer for the day:

Thank God that His power is available not only to a few, but to all who believe!
