TOPIC: FAITH FOR POSSIBILITIES
TEXT: …If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you (Matthew 17:20).
There are divine possibilities coming toward you and going pass you everyday, your ability to key in with your faith is what delivers it into your life. Though you might need to start small but as you grow in faith you a lot more become more possible unto you.
In Matthew 17:14-21, the disciples tried to cast out a demon but couldn't. They had the power because Jesus had already given it to them (see Matt. 10:1). Knowing this, the disciples were dumbfounded about why it wouldn’t work. Jesus explained that even though they had the power, unbelief was preventing it. This is where many believers live. They know they have power, but struggle to produce miraculous results.
Jesus gives the key in Matthew 17:20, saying, “If you have faith as a grain of mustard.” Jesus wasn't telling them that if you have tiny faith like a mustard seed that is all you need. This doesn't make sense because He already told them that they had unbelief, which the Amplified Bible refers to as “the littleness of your faith.” Jesus wouldn't tell them their faith was too little, then say they only needed a tiny bit of faith. He was saying that while a grain begins small, the miracle is not in its size but in its growth potential. The disciples needed to take that tiny bit of faith and grow it for that kind of miracle.
You can take your tiny seed of faith today and grow it by nurturing it and watering it with promises of faith from God’s Word. When you do, it will grow up, before you know it you will have grown a miracle and all things become possible unto you!

THE PROPHETIC DECLARATIONS FOR TODAY
Ask ye of the Lord rain in the time of the latter rain; so the Lord shall make bright clouds, and give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field… If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth: (Zecharial 10:1; Eccl 11:3)
Your cloud of miracles, signs and wonders that has gathered is been released now in Jesus mighty name!
