Our paragraph topic is: (Power of faith) Part 3.
So this was their instruction, this was their lesson to master, "Have faith and do not waver." Christ gave them this lesson and he demonstrated the power of faith by commanding the fig tree to wither. They heard his words. They saw the results. And they could not understand how this happened.
Christ told them to believe and to not waver in that belief. He told them to have faith and know that what they say will happen. He told them that there is power in their faith, in their belief, in their trust in something that is much more than the physical understanding. He told them: "But even if you shall say to this mountain, 'Arise, and hurl thyself into the sea,' it shall be done."
We believe in what we see or what we know can happen. And therefore, we understand that something can be done. We find difficult to believe something that we do not see or do not understand, especially if it is beyond our imagination. Christ told his disciples that if they spoke to the mountain and said to it to, hurl itself into the sea, it would be done if they did not waver in that belief.
But how can we not waver in something that is beyond our belief? How can we not waver in something that we do not have an understanding of how that would be possible? How can we not waver if we believe that that something is impossible to our physical knowledge of what can be done in the world? This is the dilemma. In the physical realm and in the realm of the physical thought processes of the mind, what we believe is impossible, cannot be done.
Yet in the spiritual realm of belief and understanding, Christ is telling us and the disciples that faith is the key to opening up the impossible realm of belief and knowledge in the unwavering impossibility and will make it happen. There is another side to who we are. There is another part of what we can do in this realm. There is the power given us through the power of Christ that we can stand upon in our daily lives. His words are truth. His words are everlasting. His words will be fulfilled, in our belief, in our knowledge, in our trust, and our unwavering knowledge of who he is, Christ Jesus, our King and our Savior, the Son of the Living God.
Read the sign of the times! Read the Highlighted New Testament Bible and lift the scales from your eyes that you may see, that you may know, that you may find the truth of who you are in Christ. Read it as though you would read a good book, from cover to cover, and see for yourself. Do not study it in parts reading one passage nd then skipping to another, but read it for understanding. Read it for knowledge. Read it for faith. Read it that your eyes may be opened, that your ears may hear, that your heart may be filled with the light of Christ . The Holy Spirit awaits you. Christ seeks to know you. Open the door and let him in.
