Eyesalve: Can Accomplish Anything

By | Eyesalve

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 saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.” Mark 11:23

 

Many Christians would consider these words of Jesus to just be an exaggeration. After all, who has told a mountain to be cast into the sea? Others would say that Jesus doesn’t really mean a mountain of earth and rock, but the mountains of trials in our life. I can agree with them about the mountains of trials. Still I ask, can we really say to a mountain made of earth to be removed and cast into the sea? Most definitely. Some would ask, “Why then hasn’t anyone ever done it. It is because they don’t believe they can. Why don’t they believe they can? Because God did not tell them to do it. It has to be incredibly difficult to muster up faith for such a thing if God is not in it. If God is in it, then we can have the faith to accomplish anything that He desires.
