Faith in Slow Motion - Part 2

When Jesus cursed the fig tree, it physically did not die at that very moment. Evening came, and then the next morning Peter noticed something spectacular. 

Mark 11: 19-24 When evening came, Jesus and his disciples went out of the city. In the morning, as they went along, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots. Peter remembered and said to Jesus, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree you cursed has withered!”

“Have faith in God,” Jesus answered. “Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them. Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

Jesus was explaining the concept of faith - Whether what you say physically manifests immediately or not, you must believe in what you ask God for.  When we ask or say anything in faith, and in accordance to God's Word, it is granted. Whether we can see it physically or not does not alter the truth that it is granted.

It is what we do from the time that we speak in faith, to the time that our faith spoken words manifest, that is crucial and key. We must not speak words of faith and then for lack of its physical manifestation begin to speak negative words . This is because our spoken negative words will bear negative fruit which will nullify or kill the positive seeds we have sown. The power of death and life is in the tongue.

Faith thrives in consistency and positivity. Faith believes and never ceases to believe in spite of what we see, feel, touch or hear.

Faith  believes and beholds that which seems ethereal, and gradually or instantly makes it physical and real.
