Good Morning
The road to success is not always easy but success s guaranteed if you keep going even in the face of adversity.
Jesus answered, “Have faith in God. The truth is, you can say to this mountain, ‘Go, mountain, fall into the sea.’ And if you have no doubts in your mind and believe that what you say will happen, then God will do it for you. So I tell you to ask for what you want in prayer. And if you believe that you have received those things, then they will be yours.
Mark 11:22-24 ERV
Jesus is obviously using metaphors in this passage. So far as we know, in the nearly 2000 years since He spoke these words no Christian has ever spoken to an actual mountain and caused it to fall into the sea. The “mountain” in question is a metaphor for any obstacle in life, large or small, that prevents you from fulfilling your God ordained purpose in life and “fall into the sea” is a metaphor for the removal of these obstacles, no matter what form this may take or how long it may take.
Have a great day.
