Today I learnt something I never knew before. I learnt about the mustard seed. Did you know that the mustard seed is only about 1-2mm in diameter? That seed is able to grow in dry weather or wet weather. It can grow in clay or sandy soil. It is drought resistant . It is resilient. It grows way beyond what you would expect from such a tiny seed. It grows up to 20 feet high and wide. It is one of the smallest seeds there is around. This seed is little but it yields much.
So it makes so much more sense to me that Jesus says to us in Matt17:20 that with faith the size of a mustard seed we can say to the mountain move and it shall be moved. We say to the mulberry tree be pulled up and replanted in the sea and it will do it (Luke 17:6).
My friend faith doesn't need to be much to be effective. Faith is able to grow in any circumstance. Faith in God is all we need to overcome. Faith the size of a mustard seed; Not a whole lot but it is enough.
I tell you the truth that your tiny faith will grow as you use it more and more. Just like the mustard seed grows into a tree, so will your faith when you activate it. Your faith will be tested. Don't forget faith without work is dead.
