The Fig Tree

Mark 11:14 states: "In response Jesus said to it." It is impossible to respond to or answer something, unless it first talks to you. 

The fig tree spoke to Jesus, by saying "I will not give you any figs." The problem, or the mountain will talk to you and say: "I will not leave you. I am going to keep on giving you trouble." You must speak to the mountain - or the problem, and tell it to leave in the name of Jesus. 

Jesus spoke to the fig tree. He did not pray about it, because He knew that He was operating in the Father’s will. The death of the tree started at the roots and not at the leaves. God starts to work at the root of the problem. Continue to believe God and thank Him for the answer that is on its way. God is expecting you to become mature in your praying and believing.

Overcoming Sadness

Depression is like a cancer. Once it sets in, it can overtake us and place us in bondage. Severe depression has a crippling effect. It steals and robs us of our joy and ability to experience happiness. Of course we could get into all the intense reasons and causes of depression. But enough of that.

I encourage those dealing with depression to enter into a place of prayer. What kind of prayer. Simply pray and talk to God. Tell him what you are experiencing and simply ask Him for help.

I encourage you to also find some praise and worship music that you like, listen to it and make it a part of your days. You see when we lift our voices up to God, give Him praise and worship Him. The Kingdom of God, meaning heaven, comes to earth. And when the Kingdom comes, depression leaves.

Blessings, in the love of Christ
