Speak
to Your Mountain TGIF Today God Is First Volume 2, by Os Hillman 04-02-2008 "Have faith in God," Jesus
answered. "I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain,
'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but
believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him (Mark
11:22-24).
I taught an all day training session at a church a few years ago.
Several months later I received a letter from one of the participants
sharing a testimony about the principle of using your authority to speak
to your mountain in your workplace.
I prayed that God would restore my tapes. I got an odd sense of peace
and knew God had answered my prayer. I relayed to the group that I
believed God had told me that the tapes would be fine in a day. My
associate challenged me to put in the tape anyway and not wait. I put a
tape in the editing deck, and right before our eyes, the tape now had a
perfectly clear picture and audio where there had been no sound moments
before.
The next morning, I entered my editing room with great anticipation.
I put in one of the remaining damaged tapes that contained footage from
a wedding, but the video was still scrambled and there was no audio. My
wife heard me and came in to look over my shoulder. I prayed out loud
over the ruined footage and reassured my wife that God loves us and
would take care of things. I kept praying as I watched the screen.
Then suddenly, before our eyes, the tape began to clear up. Just as
the pastor announced how God intimately loves us, I turned to look at my
wife and saw the tears streaming down her face. Apparently, God had
rigged this moment to touch her deeply on issues that only the two of
them knew about. Not only did God save my business, but He also
ministered to my family through this crisis-fixing miracle."
