Cast, Crumble And Trust

1 John 5:14

And this is the confidence we have before Him, that if we ask according to His will, He hears us. 

 Matthew 17:20

If you have faith as a mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, “Move from here to here, and it shall move; and nothing shall be impossible to you.”

 1 Peter 5:7

Cast all your anxiety upon him, because He cares for you.

 Romans 8:28

And we know that God causes all things to happen for good to those who love God, who are called according to His purpose.

 Proverbs 3:5,6

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding.  In all ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight.

       In your life, there will always be mountains:  mountains of wishing something or someone was different; mountains of longing for someone that is no longer there, mountains of wondering if maybe you should be in another place, another job, another relationship.  And those mountains are so big that they consume the eyes of your spirit.  They are all you can see and think about. But God doesn’t want you to look at your mountain.  He wants your eyes on Him. God wants you to be free from anxiety so that your spirit won’t be blocked from all the people and events He has planned for you. God has a great strategy for getting rid of anxiety.  First He says, “Give me the mountain.”  Tell Him specifically what it is that you want.  Say, “God, I am putting this situation in your hands.  I want what you want for me, because I know that you know what is best for me and I’m trusting you to put me on the right path.  Then you’ve got to really believe and let go.  That is what faith is, believing what you can’t see yet.  Faith is believing that although your current circumstance isn’t exactly as you would have it to be, everything is exactly as it should be for this time And when it is time for you to move, you will feel a pull and a desire to go in the direction that God will surely guide you, if you just ask.  Then visually, let that mountain just literally crumble into the sea and be washed away.  God will handle all the events.  It may not be in a way that you would have thought, but it will be in the best way for you.  So next time your vision becomes clouded by the mountain that is before you remember: Cast, crumble, and trust that God is lining up all the events and people in your life in a way that is “exceedingly abundantly beyond all expectation” (Ephesians 3:20).
