One day i was stressed out about something as I was browsing online with my mind unfocused,these very words in Mark 11 24 showed up,as if God was directly talking to me I closed my eyes and prayed and believed that my troubles are gone and it did!! I ASKED,I BELIEVED,I RECEIVED!Really faith can move mountains!
I am using this verse for Jesus to set me free from smoking ans nicotine addidction,so far so good. i find it very reasuring and elevating as i continue to confess this verse out loud, everywhere i go especially when I have to endure a spell of cravings.
The first thing to notice in that verse is who is speaking. It is God who was manifest in flesh, God who cannot lie,. It is the one who can do for us exceeding abundantly above all that we are able to ask or think. The One who has promised and purchased eternal salvation for all who believe in Him. If we keep this in mind how can we not believe this promise also. When the man in Mark ch 9 asked the Lord "If you are able have compassion on us and help us. "The Lord answered "9if you can believe. All things are possible to him that believeth ". The man said "Lord I believe , help thou my unbelief. " This too is my prayer.
This has been my favorite verse in the Bible for 32 years. I asked God for a verse that I could teach my children that would get them through the good and bad times. I started have them memorize it when they turned 4 years old when we said their bedtime prayers. They are 35, 31 and 26 and they use it when their faith is weak. They are strong Christians who are now raising their children for the Lord. In church every Sunday with their families sitting in pew behind mom and dad. I thank God for this special gift and for always being there when I need him. I can 't imagine a day without him. Let me always let my light shine for him! I have an unspoken request that I need prayer for at the present time. If you are a prayer warrior, please pray for me. I know God will take care of this request, but I believe we should pray for others. God Bless you all!
God gave us everything we need in our human life,but you have to ask for it, is like you go to visit a freind and you reach at his door her door instade of knocking the door you just stand out side at the door, nobody will know that you are at the door
Is it "believe you will receive them " or is the translation in the past tense "believe that you have already received them.. " I am a bit confused about the tense of this verse
What soever ye desire be sure that what you desire is in accordance to God 's will. When you pray, believe that you receive them thank God for giving it to you. And soon you will have it. Let your heart not doubt the power of prayer. Believing takes faith and patience. Some prayer take a little longer to be answered. But God does answer all prayers. Sometimes He may not give us what we ask for, but what we need.
Jesus expected to fing fig fruits but he did not and the response was that he cursed the tree. what is expected of you, make sure that you do everything that is expected of you and be in a position to account for it all
Mark 11 was I can safely say the first Chapter in the Bible where I got tremendous inspiration by the Holy Spirit and got immense insight into spiritual interpretation of the Word of God The Word of God is not merely as we read it it is beyond that we always need inspiration by the Holy Ghost to really get insight of the Word of God This morning the Holy Ghost was telling me about how the Word of God can be referred to as a house seen from one direction The way the person who has seen that house from that particular direction can only describe it as such any other additions would be imaginary and therefore a lie It goes also that he who sees the house from two sides would only have two ways of describing that house However the one who actually navigates all around the house including the inside and the roof would have a full view of the house We need to have a full view of the Word of God to fully comprehend IT I will post what the Holy Spirit revealed to me over this powerful Chapter in my next post Thanks and may the Lord Jesus Christ reveal His word to you ALL in Jesus name
This is interesting in that it shows, that Jesus would curse a fig tree that was out of season for growing figs, so that no one could ever eat figs from it again, and die. So he could show that you can do anything you desire if you believe? People continually say he voided out the ways of the old testament, but here he reaffirms it. Cursed a living thing, because it didn't bear fruit outside of when it was designed to grow.
I say that since I have read this verse and also of Mathew Chapter 21 vs 22 it has tremendously
increased my faith and my prayers will be answered by the Lord. I am sure.
I know it to be true I feel it in my body that God will provide what I have ask of him in an abundant financial way that he will open my storehouse that there will not be room enough to fill it with his boundtiful blessings! Praise his name Mark#11-24
I remember saying. I want Abraham Faith and after praying and hoping and most of all fighting and believing My Lord Jesus, I asked and adult when I believed I was ready and he never lies...Amen... Mark 11:22-24.
Mark 11:23 is one of the most powerful scripture in the new testament it gives me so much faith and hope that no matter what comes my way I will come out on top.
I love Mark 11:24-26 teaches a lot about ourselves as Christians and followers of Christ teachings. If we don’t do what He asked us to do, then we are not to be called true believers; and I say “AMEN” to the verses.
I love Mark 11:22-26 because I take it at exactly Jesus words. He is telling us that we can have and do whatever we desire if we have faith and do not doubt our father. Jesus was telling us to believe. Jesus was saying we too could command the fig tree to die and if we had faith then the tree would shrivel for us too. Why make it anything less than his word.
On verse 24, as a reminder that much of what is being read in the gospels before the cross is prophetic doctrine for the Jews to happen after the rapture of the body of Christ (the church). All can be used for spiritual application in this age of grace (church age). We must compare scripture with scripture to achieve absolute truth ( John 5:39; I Corinthians 2:13). In verse 23 the mountain represents spiritual obstacle that will come your way to try and interfere with getting you off the course that the lord has placed you on. But with the faith of ( Ephesians 3) and allowing Jesus to work through us by humbling ourselves before him and following the rule in James 4:1-3 and Isaiah 40:31, we will overcome any obstacles. And prayers will be answered according to needs and God's plan for our lives. Do not pray for a Rolls Royce when a Chevy will do!
On verses 13 and 24:
1. The fig tree represents the nation of Israel;
2. Jesus saw it afar off like when people view religion, but when a person takes the time to investigate religion closely they begin to see it for what it is (false Christianity). The leaves represent religion that is drenched in the law and dressed in the unbiblical traditions of men ( Colossians 2:8). True spiritual fruit ( Matthew 7:16) comes from the grace of our lord Jesus Christ working through us, after being born again ( Galatians 5:22-26). Of course Jesus did what he always does to nations, denominations, and individuals that are trying to produce heavenly fruits through fleshly seeds, he places an ichabod curse on that unfruitful religious situation.
