Mountains to Molehills

God put a dream in Zerubbabel to rebuild the destroyed temple in Jerusalem, but people were against him and got a decree from the Persian king that forced him to stop. For years it looked like it would never happen, but then he heard the prophecy in today’s Scripture. He was saying, “I have this big mountain in front of me, but it’s about to become a molehill.” How would it happen? Other translations say by shouting “Grace to it.” Another word for “grace” is “favor.” He was saying, “Yes, this obstacle is big, but I have the favor of God to overcome and finish this project.” He didn’t talk about his mountain. He talked to his molehill.

When you face challenges, speak favor over them. Look at your bank account and speak favor to it. Speak favor over your health. Speak favor over your promotion. It’s not enough to just pray about it or just believe. What’s going to turn the mountain into a molehill is by speaking grace to it.

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You that no matter how big the mountain of obstacles is, I have Your favor to overcome it. Thank You that favor is making my crooked places straight and defeating what comes against me. I will speak grace to my mountains and see them turn into molehills. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
