Daily Bread – January 16, 2024 (The Third Day – Genesis 1:9-13) Luke 17:6 – The Lord replied, “If you have faith as a mustard seed, you would say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea’, and it would obey you.” God wants us to believe for great things. He has made it possible that whatever we ask Him, He will do (Matthew 21:22; John 14:13, 15:7, 16, 16:23; 1 John 3:22, 5:15). He has given to us a supernatural faith that moves mountains and causes nature to rearrange its order to adjust to whatever we say. The smallest amount of faith can accomplish wonders beyond the wildest imagination, and God has made available an unlimited supply to us (Mark 11:22; 1 Corinthians 13:2; Hebrews 11:6; Acts 6:5,8, 11:24). The right kind of faith is the faith that believes God can do anything. This kind of faith only needs His Word and the confidence that whatever we ask, He will do it. The right kind of faith is the kind born out of a love relationship with the Lord Jesus and is committed to bringing honor and glory to His Name. We must allow the Spirit of God, Who has been given to us, to reveal the power, authority, glory, and honor God has called us to. The same grace and purpose of God took Joseph to the highest position of the greatest Kingdom on Earth (Genesis 41:39-41). It brought Joshua to an authority that commanded the sun and the moon to stand still (Joshua 10:12). It enabled Elijah to call fire down out of the sky (2 Kings 1:10). It gave Daniel wisdom and knowledge that was so great that all of the enemies of God which lived around him confessed that in Daniel was the “spirit of the gods” (Daniel 4:8,9,18, 5:11). The same Spirit was in Paul who testified to the world of the grace of God by the power of signs and wonders, and by the power of the Spirit of God (Romans 15:19). Blessings, Pastor Mark Spitsbergen
