Believer's ; do , have , seemingly insurmountable mountains which loom up upon thev horizon of their pilgrim journey from earth to heaven. Sometimes the mountain may assume the form of temptation. It can only grow so big. However, you can grown bigger than it ' through your faith in God and His Word. You can say to your mountain of, temp tation: "It is written ... There hath no temptation taken you but such as is, common to man; but God is faithful, who will not permit you to be, tempted above that ye are able, but will, with the temptation, . also make a way of escape, that . ye may be able to bear it" (I Cor. 10:13). Defeat in some area of the Christian life often appear as a mountain. James wrote in his epistle, "But if ye have bitter envying 'and strife in your heats,' glory not, and lie not against the truth" (3:14). . After thus identifying the mountain, he set about to say to it; "Thus saith the Lord. Submit yourselves, therefore, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and he will Although I had no opposition In tCs" I the General Election I wish to express my appreciation for . .. j your vote on November 3. . ; j THANK VOU ' f GRAF0NG BEAMAN L alrbni'4n...iiii 1 Mill 'IIim 'fikii V Mf !:: Vv,llKi fl i ' it ip. v i -1 . t; draw near to you" (4:7,W. 1 Like Jesus, the Apostle Paul taught the Believers the importance of speaking or saying the word of faith. He said, "But what saith it? The Word is near thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart; that is, the word of faith, which we preach; that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe .in thine heart that God hath, raised him from the dead, thou shall be-saved.-For with the heart man j believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation" (Rom. 10:8 10). Your mountain of sin is removed when you say or speak your confession of faith .in Jesus Christ as God's slain Son sacrificed ' for the sins of the world. Circumstances arise as mountains much like that suffered by fisherman Peter After toiling at the streneous task of throwing out nets and-raising them through-out the long night, . the - catch remained zero. Fatigued and dejected, Peter drdered . the crew, "Set the sails for shore." About that time Jesus came along followed by a crows who loved to hear him preach the word of God. In . order to escape the press of the crowd, he stepped into Peter's boat and Peter, , "thrust the boat out a little . from the land." After Jesus had finished his message to the people, he" ' turned to Peter and said, "Launch out into the deep, and let down ( your net for a draught." Startled by the command, Peter exclaimed, "Master, we have toiled all the night, 'T f and have taken nothing; . nevertheless, at thy word Iy will let down the net." The exciting results of obedience to Christ command ("nevertheless, at thy ' word") is recorded .., "And when they' had done this, they enclosed a great multitude of fish, and their net broke" (Lk, 5:W). The , mountain obedience : moved in to thC spoken word , Got an rivers you think ' are uncrossable? : Got any mountains you can't tunnel through? , , . God specializes in, things thought impossible. ,', He will do for you what no other power can do.' V : "Say unto this mountain; be thou removed, and cast into the sea..." , '.
