He Will Move Mountains By Michael Youssef, Ph.D. As we face challenges in our lives, there are a number of reasons we might not pray. We may tell ourselves that we are too busy to pray. We may think we can solve the problem on our own. Or we may think God does not answer our prayers. And even if we eventually pray, we sometimes do it out of duty more than faith that God will answer us. Yet, God hears our prayers. Jesus told His disciples that only faith the size of a mustard seed was needed to move mountains. A small measure of faith can have an amazing impact in our lives. As we begin to pray with faith, we are emboldened to believe God will do the impossible in our lives. When God answers our prayers, His glory is revealed. We must remember that God does answer our prayers in one way or another. It may not always be the way we imagined, but His best is always at work. We are reminded in Hebrews 4:16 to approach God’s throne of grace confidently. While we should never demand that God do things our way, we should recognize He wants us to seek Him on both the easy and tough issues in our lives. He wants us to come before Him with confidence that He loves us and He desires to help us. All our cynicism begins to vanish in the wake of God answering our prayers. When heaven opens up and pours out miracles into our lives, we realize the truth. We realize He loves us so much that He will move mountains for us. Hallelujah to the King of kings! Prayer: Lord, give me confidence to go before You in prayer, knowing that You desire to meet me where I am in life. Give me faith to believe You for the impossible things in my life and the lives of others. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. “Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need” (Hebrews 4:16).
