Mustard Seed Faith Moves/James Woodley and The Upper Room Church

Praise God. Hallelujah. Praise God.

But if your mother is still available, give her the flowers.

Flowers while she can smell it. Amen. Praise God, hallylud

honor her. Amen.

We thank God for the mothers. Because of the warm

for mothers, guess what, we wouldn't be here.

Hallelujah, Thank you Jesus. Praise God, hallelujah. I'm not gonna

be before you very long. I just wanted to encourage

your faith. Amen. I realize that the enemy.

Is busy and he seems to be attacking us on

all levels.

Praise God, hallelujah. Praise God.

And I heard of a suddenly saying a few minutes ago.

Sometimes it's not that, not that devil, Praise God. Sometimes

God is trying to teach us something, Amen, Praise God.

And sometimes it's because we've been disobedient.

Amen, Praise God. And uh so.

But regardless of however it comes, our hope and our faith,

it should be in God.

Amen. Praise God, hallelujah.

Want you to look with me this morning in Saint Luke,

chapter seventeen, verse six, and man had dropped into my

spirit this week.

Praise God. Concerning the muster seed.

Saint Luke, chapter seventeen, verse six, and it says the

and the Lord said, if.

You have faith.

As a brain of mustard seed, you should say, unto

this sicamon tree, be thou plucked up by the root,

and be thy planet in the sea, and it shall

obey you. Anybody got in the sicka mine trees in

your way this morning.

That you're going to get out here, you getting going

to get out.

Get rid of And my title and of my subject

is faith that moves. If we're gonna overcome these things

that are attacking us, praise God that's plaguing us, it's

gonna require faith. Amen, faith moves. Jesus was responding in

this particular scripture to his disciples after they ask him, say, Lord,

increase our faith, and his answer teaches that the power

of faith is not found in the size of your faith,

but it's found in the source of your faith, because

our natural mind thanks well, you know, in order for

God to move from me this morning, I got to

have a truckload of faith. But Jesus says, if you

have faith as a grain of muscle seed, you might say,

up to this sick of mind tree, be our plucking

up out of the roof and be our planet in

the sea, and it shall obey you.

And what Jesus was sharing with us.

Is that a small amount of faith can do some

great things.

Amen, no matter what challenges you and I.

Have faith as a grain of muscle seed, praise God,

which is known as one of the smallest seeds in

that particular culture. Matter of fact, they said the seed

was so small that if you're dropped it, you couldn't

hardly find it.

It's about the size of a period on the page.

I've been told, yes, But.

Jesus tells us, and he's showing us in this scripture

today that genuine faith, even if it's small, has the

power prays God to move things when it's placed in God. See,

God is not limited by the size of your faith.

You might feel like, well, I don't have much faith,

but God is not limited by the size of your faith.

This morning, because Jesus said, if you got faith as

a grade of muscle.

Seed, you can say something to that tree that's in

front of you. So this morning, I don't want you

to put yourself down and say, well, Lord, I don't

have much faith, you know, Lord, I I'm just very

to making it I came in. I don't want you

to think that way. I want you to recognize that

Jesus said, if you got faith the size of a

grain of muscle seed, you can speak into that tree and.

To be planted. Prays God to be plucking up by

the route.

Matter of fact, one of the things that caught my

attention was Jesus is saying, prays God that the tree

was gonna be move.

He said, he's gonna be plucked up by the root.

Because that's some things in our life that's got some

roots pass God embedded in us, that needs to come

out of us. Pais God. So it don't it ain't

not gonna do you no good. They're to chalk the

tree out and move to treat you got to pluck it.

Up by the roof. Amen.

And so don't be concerned about not having a lot

of faith, or you might feel like you got weak faith.

Do not despise small things.

According to the word of God, even weak faith can

pass God can accomplish some things in God. Because number one,

a seed is desired to be planted. You don't get

a seed and just look at it and hold it

up and say what is't that pretty little seed? A

seed is design to be planted. Where are you gonna

plant your seed of faith this morning? I'm gonna plant

my seed of.

Faith in God, So prays God.

As you think about the things and the challenges, says

standing before you this morning, Praise God. I want you

to take your little faith, prays God, and light the

song Hella something to just sing a hand us singing

a few minutes, say yes Lord, glory to God, Hallelujah.

But perhaps some reason, some things not working for us,

because we have not got got to the place where

we say yes Lord. I want to keep on Praise God.

God was trying to move you up. Praise God, but

I want to keep on staying where I am. And

I don't want that. I don't want to change my way.

Praise God, for God is trying to call us, prays God, Hallelujah,

to move on that.

But bring whatever little faith you have today, bring it

to Jesus. Amen.

Matthew seventeen twenty says, because of your unbelief, but very

now I say it to you if you have faith.

The Great of Muscle Seed used to say it to

this mountain.

Remove hints to yon the place, and it shall remove,

and nothing shall be impossible to you. Now, this particular

scripture has nothing to do with the fact that the

disciples trying to deliver somebody and it won't working, prays God,

and theyn't want to know what Jesus, our prayer for

this God, our prayer for this kid who had a demon,

Our praying for this person that had a signal.

Why averon't it working?

And Jesus said, because of your unbelief veraon, I saying

to you, have faith that the great of mustle seine.

You shall say to this mountain.

Remove hints to yon the place, and it shall remove,

and nothing shall be possible to you. How being this

kind come and going not out, but by prayer and fasting. Now,

some things has to be moved by prayer and fasting.

Not everything.

Some things, Praise God, you can pray with pay and

God would move. But there are certain situations that you

got to fast that you got to pray that. In

other words, you got to get real serious with God

about this thing. That's baby, that's part of our problem.

But praise God, we haven't really got serious about what's

going on in our life. But I want you to

notice in both of these particular scriptions that I gave you,

Jesus said, Praise God. You shall say or you shall speak,

Praise God. Have you spoken to that second bound tree

in your life this morning? Have you spalken to that

sickness in your mind to this point? Have this falking

to your body?

Praise God? God is walking it well? E I can

with pain.

Have you falken to those limbs? Have you foken to

that body? Have you spoken to that circumstances? Have you

foken to that situation? Have this falking to your momity?

So I want you to get the picture. Jesus said,

if you got faith, then you need to say something.

You need to speak to it.

And it doesn't matter if you don't have a whole

truckload of faith, but use what you got. And so

we recognize that the sick of mine tree has deep

roots and it's very difficult to move. And this symbolizes,

I think, stubborn problems in our life.

I believe it represents sin.

I believe it represents fear, bitterness, impossible situation. You know,

some of us got some roots that go deep down

that we don't recognize. Praise God, are we trying to

ignore it? Amen?

And I remember Ella Holmes telling us about a lady

that was trying to get.

A breakthrough in a service and look like she would

get right there, but she couldn't get that breakthrough. And

come to find out, after asking and digging a little

bit deeper, come to find out that she has some

unforgiveness in the life. I believe it from uh to

an ex husband. I believe it was or somebody that

had done her wrong. That was some unforgiveness of the life.

Some of us got some deep roots. And if it's

unforgitven that that's somebody you have not forgiven, you got

to pull it up by the room Hallelujah. You might say, well, yeah,

but you don't know what they did. Listen, Praise God.

None of us have been narrowed to a ruth, none

of them. None of us have had nairols thrown into

our hands in our feet.

Praise God. I think. Praise God.

If ithools us if there's some unforgettness in your life

about somebody who's mistreating mistreated.

You, prays God, you need to get and pull that

root up.

As a matter of fact, you all said if you

don't forgive men that trespasses, neither will your father forgive you. Now.

I know that don't sound sexy, and that don't sound pretty,

and that don't sound cute, But that's the word of God.

If there's some bitsiness in you, you need to pull

it up by the root. If there's some sin going

on in your life, you need to pull it up

by the root and don't play with it.

But you need to speak to it and pull it

up by the root.

One thing about faith, it doesn't just complain about the

obstacles in the trees that's in his way. What faith does.

It speaks God's truth of God's word to it. You

got a situation, don't just complain about it, man, but

speak to it. And as a matter of fact, in

this particular parable or in this particular situation, when Jesus said,

pays God, and if you got faith, as a granted

us to see he just say, sit down and complaining

about the sick of mind tree being in your way.

And wait and wait.

Well, God, I bleeve, God, I believe I wish you

this sick amount of tree would die so I can

get around it.

No, he says, speak to it.

God wants to stop magnifying the problem, and stop magnifying God.

Thank you, Praise God. Have you got a situation that's

going on, it's not in your life.

Praise God. Don't magnify the problem. Don't talk about how

bad it. You know there's nothing more activated Praise God

when you well, this happens with senior citizens a lot,

and I'm wondered the senior citizens.

But one of the things, praise God that is that

is so funny.

Praise God if you had If you be around certain

senior citizens and you're hearing them talking about their ailments,

and one person who say, well, you know I got

Lombil left big Old. Another person when you know I

got author writers, another person would I got this? And

that you competing which one got the worst? Seas that's

not the way to overcome. Praise God and exercise your

faith in God. To be bragging about how sick you

are better than the other person. Praise God, Amen, Praise God.

So stop magnifying the problem. To stop magnifying God. Get

God to prayers, how the living Thanks good Jesus.

But somebody gets God. Some praise is wrong. And I

know we've got some stuff going on in our life.

But praise God. This God's praise Hallelijah, God, thank you Jesus.

Glory to God.

Sim say, God inhabit the praises of his people. You

want God to get in your circumstance.

Go praise to him. He'll get down there with you. Hallelujah.

Want you to look with me in Matthew or Mark

chapter eleven, verse twenty two. And Jesus asked and said

to them have faith in God. Yes.

In verse twenty three says, for very lad said.

To you that whatsoever shall whatsoever shall say, whosoever shall

say unto this mountain, be thou removed, and be thy

casting to the sea.

And thou shall not doubt in his heart, but shall

believe
