Mark: 11:22: And Jesus answering said unto them, Have faith in God. 23: For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he said shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he said. 24: Therefore I say unto you, what things so ever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
The idea behind this passage of scripture is faith while Jesus Christ had cursed a fig tree because it was not doing what God intended it to do that is to produce fruit and it withered away. The tree dried up at the roots because of Jesus faith He commanded the tree to never produce fruit again, Matthew 21:19. Well, you might be saying only Jesus can do that and it is impossible for mere man to accomplish that feat. You are right man cannot accomplish that feat because it will not be man doing it at all it is only by the power and authority of Jesus Christ you call something into existence. For Jesus told His disciples if you shall ask anything in my name, I will do it, John 14:14, for this glorifies the Father in Heaven. The Key is not only knowing that you have this authority in Jesus name but you must not doubt in your heart, you must believe those things in which you are praying for that you have already received them and you shall have them, in Jesus name. Keep in mind you are not trying to pimp God for anything based on your on lust but what you are asking for it is based on the will of God for your life and that those things will please Him in all of your endeavors. The Lord Jesus Christ said it shall come to pass. It shall come to pass means it shall come into being present tense… Today my friend whatever you stand in need of just ask in Jesus name and it shall come to pass not consuming upon your on lust but what God already has for you is for you… For in time and eternity God has already ordained for certain things to happen in your life that is filled with all of His blessings and that will bring you success and prosperity. Now it is up to you to believe in your destiny you have to walk in it and believe that you have already received it! You have faith in God and faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen, Hebrews 11:1. Meaning, you have to believe so hard that you can see it happening right now before your eyes without a doubt in your mind, you are living it right now and it is already done in Jesus name…
