good news

[GHooooST]

Today my mind flickered over something, something I'de heard many times before, but this time it left a mark.

It says somewhere in the bible according to my dad that Jesus said something similar to the fact that we will do even greater things than he, if only we had the faith. (If it doesnt Ive either put it wrong, or misheard him for I know he wouldnt lie to me)

Im pretty sure it also says somewhere that it takes the faith a size of a mustard seed to tell a mountain to get up and move over there! What fantastic news! To do greater things than JESUS himself?! Some would consider folly, after all he raised the dead, healed the blind, deaf and diseased, walked on water, made food and drink out of nothing and the list goes on.

To do greater than those things?! Wahoo I say! If a faith the size of a mustard seed is enough to do that, then imagine what you could do with faith the size of an apple (You get what I mean, I dont actually mean a real apple). Isnt that huge spiritual liftup for you? I also find it a huge moral booster, a big kinda 'comon you can do it', it makes me want to be able to do those things!

Praise the Lord Jesus! For everything under his name is his and everything through him is possible. Much love

Hi there brother

Yes this is what you are looking for.

John 14:12:
12I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.

Matthew 17:20
He replied, "Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."

Luke 17:6
He replied, "If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it will obey you.


God bless you :rainbow: :rose:

That's one of my favorite promises from Christ Jesus!

Another encouraging and obvious famous prayer is the Prayer of Jabez

1 Chronicles 4:10

10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, “Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!” So God granted him what he requested

Keep it up Ghoooost

Hey there Ghoooost. Keep up your amazing new discoveries about our Lord. Hope your faith rubs off on the folks that you love. It is all true about Jesus Ghoooost. He really exists and He is Kind, Compassionate, Caring, True, Truthful, Helpful, Loving, Liking....just One Great Guy and Brother. You can put 100% trust in Him Ghooost. Even if things don't look so good, underneath they really are. The apostles talked a lot about rejoicing because they were being persecuted. Now, I don't want you to be persecuted, but if times get tough just remember this.

Matthew 5:12
Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

So, I see that Jesus has you in His arms. You stay there okay? And if you feel like it just isn't working, remember that even the apostles went through tough times, but to them it was like being guaranteed Heaven. (That is where you want you and the ones you love to end up).

Peace be with you and keep up the faith. Amenixie :rainbow:
