Mustard seed Faith-Mustard seed Doubt

Matthew 14:1-22
     
          We hear so much about having "mustard seed faith" and all it takes is to have faith the size of a grain of a mustard seed but we can nullify what we are believing for by allowing doubt the size of a mustard seed to creep in and be planted. This is a good example of us having to live in the scripture Romans 12 and applying that to our lives daily. Our MINDS MUST BE RENEWED or we will always try to process what God tells and reveals to us through our "computer/natural mind." if our natural mind is the primary source of our processing, we won't move when God tells us something if it doesn't "make sense" to us! He never intended for us to use our natural minds to process anything he says to us! This is why we must "re-new" or "get back to" the mind that we were given in the beginning which was the mind of Christ. This is the mind that says to the Father, whatever you say to me I believe is true and even if I don't understand it, I trust you as God and know that you cannot lie....so therefore.......IT IS SO! God wants us to trust HIM completely for every aspect of our lives and what we need. Be encouraged and don't allow the enemy's "mustard seed doubt" to planted alongside your faith.
As human beings it's easy to be distracted by our surroundings and by our circumstances but God is bringing us to a place where nothing will move us from what He has said to us......including storms and hard patches in our life walk! As a musician, not every gig or job or playing situation is gonna be ideal but I have to learn to "adjust my sails" to the wind that's blowing and go where that's taking me......does God not control the wind that's blowing? If He does, that means he also has provided the right size "sail" and any other equipment I may need to get to the other side! We are still growing.....we just need to keep doubt out of the equation!

God Bless you.....keep pressing!!! Bayce3
