If you’ve been believing God for a breakthrough for some time but haven’t seen it, it’s easy to start wondering, “Is it because I don’t have enough faith? Maybe if I had more faith, then God would answer me. Maybe if I had more faith, then I would receive my miracle.”
I love how Jesus responded to His disciples when they asked Him to increase their faith.
He said, “If you have faith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.” (Luke 17:6). The mustard seed is among the smallest of all seeds. It’s no bigger than the period at the end of this sentence. But the mulberry tree reaches the heights of about 20 feet. It has a strong, thick trunk and wide-spread roots. What is mustard seed-sized faith next to a mulberry tree-sized problem? Jesus says, Powerful enough to uproot it.
My friend, receiving your breakthrough is not about how great or how small your faith is. The little faith you have can uproot that problem you’re facing—no matter how deeply rooted it’s been in your life.
God’s Word says you’ll see it removed when you say to it, “Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea.” The word “say” in the original Greek language is in the imperfect tense, which means to keep on saying, keep on declaring. Beloved, as you keep on declaring the end of your struggle, even with the little faith you have, God is uprooting it completely from your life!
