Faith, Rest!



And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.- Mark 11:21

What I observed from this passage of scripture is that after the conversation between Jesus Christ and the tree, he spoke these last words to the tree, "And Jesus answered and said unto it, NO MAN EAT FRUIT OF THEE HEREAFTER FOR EVER. And his disciples heard it." Mark 11:14. 
Thereafter, He completely removed the conversation between him and that tree from His thought. And, He did not, stop-by every now and then, to see if the words he spoke to the tree was coming to pass or not.
The Bible said, it was Peter, who called to his remembrance, what had happened to the tree, and he said in verse 23 and 24, in other words, once you have faith in God and you say a thing, believe that you have the answer and it will be so.
The thing with us is that, once we profess our faith; all the time we go back and forth, trying to see the process. Well, it is not our job to know how, it is God's. Jesus said in the book of John 14:10, the Father is the one doing the works. His is to declare it and the Father will confirm it or bring it to pass. And, as the Father had sent him, even so he has sent us, John 20:21.
Also John 14:13 says, 
"... whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son." 

What I am simply saying is that, once the subject matter is ascertained that it is the will of God. Ours is to declare it, His is to perform it. It is not our job to perform or confirm, let's get this right. Isaiah 44:26 says it this way for clarity,
"That CONFIRMETH the WORD of HIS SERVANT, and PERFORMETH the COUNSEL of HIS MESSENGERS;..."

Well, I think I will stop here today, looking forward to hearing your testimonies.

SETTLED SOUL

  Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2 The state of one's mind [ soul ] determines his/her place in destiny. In life people are forced to bow to pair pressure or any other kind of pressure when they don't have a stable mind, or let's say the person have identity issue.  When Satan tempted Christ Jesus on His way from the wilderness after forty days prayer and fasting, what was the first question he asked Him? "if thou be the Son of God" if Jesus had had identity issue, he would have fallen for temptation in the view to show off, as a result lost His place and purpose. Knowing fully well that God had said, "... Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased." Lk. 3:22. Before embarking on the wilderness expenditure.  When you know who you are in the Word of God and are established in it; you wouldn't bow to the pressure of the world, because you see things differently....

SPIRITUAL KNOWING

  But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming. Acts 13:45 In life you will face some vicious attacks from people, their reasons may seem reasonable to many [natural minds]; but their real intent, concealed. From the above text, observe the real reason the Jews were contradicting what the Apostles had said. When they saw the multitudes, they became envious. But they wouldn't come out to show their real intent; but will work up something else as the main reason.  This is why as a Christian, you can't allow yourself to be limited by the things you see, hear or feel, because they can be deceptive. The Holy Spirit is the revealer of truth, let Him guide you into all truth.  "For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy." Mark 15:10 Go beyond the physical, and sense realm. Go spiritual [there's a spiritual knowing].  Jesus is Lord!  Mark Enah...

PROSPER

 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2. The mind consist of one's will, intellect and emotions; which is the soul of man. At salvation the spirit of man; which is also referred to as the heart gets quickened or made alive (But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible,... ) 1 Peter 3:4  The heart is saved, the soul is not. You [we] have a duty to save our soul; and it has to be done through studying the word and meditating upon the word, that's when the transformation of mind/soul begins. Romans 12:2  "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your MIND, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." As you spend more time in the Word of God; like a mirror you beginning to see your true identity from it. This is the reason we are admonished to study the Word of God. Satan knows this, so he tries...
