Mark 11:23
For assuredly, I say
to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’
and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will
be done, he will have whatever he says.

God says that we will
have whatever we say. So whatever we want to have, we can say it and have it.
Unfortunately, we often say what we don’t want to have.
For example, we say,
“I don’t know why I go through my money so fast every month. Even when my
boss gives me an increment, there never seems to be enough money.” And true
enough, we see a lack of money at the end of every month.
You see, you will have
whatever you say, good or bad. So why not change what you have been saying
to, “From now on, I will have more than enough because Jesus became poor at
the cross, so that I might become rich — 2 Corinthians 8:9. So poverty, be
gone in Jesus’ name!”
Whatever mountain of
difficulty you have, be it a mountain of debt or serious health condition,
Jesus says, “For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this
mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his
heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he
will have whatever he says.”
Jesus highlights the
importance of saying by mentioning the word “say” thrice, but the word
“believe” only once. Our problem today is that there is more preaching on
believing than saying. So the reason people find it hard to walk in faith is
that they are not saying enough of the Word.
But if we would focus
more on saying God’s Word, faith will come. That is how God quickened
Abraham’s faith. He changed Abraham’s saying when He changed his name from
Abram to Abraham, which means “father of many nations”. (Genesis 17:5) From
then on, whenever Abraham introduced himself, he would say, “Hi, my name is
Father Of Many Nations."
Beloved, declare your
abundance, saying, “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.” (Psalm 23:1)
Speak forth your healing, saying, “By Jesus’ stripes I am healed!” (Isaiah 53:5)
And you will have whatever you say!
