The God of the Mountain

Matthew 15:29-30

And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there. And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others and cast them down at Jesus’ feet; and he healed them. 

**The mountain you are avoiding is the mountain God is waiting for you on**

The Personal Climb

  • A lot of times, when we come across a mountain in our lives, our knee-jerk reaction is to rebuke it and cast it into the sea. But what if God placed that mountain in our path?
  • Our personal climbs can be scary, even lonely at times. 
  • We may start our climb with a lot of baggage. And we may find along the way of climbing this mountain that the weight of what we are carrying is holding us back. 
    • Things like control, doubt, relationships, unforgiveness, fears, desires, etc. 
    • Sometimes, these individual things can be the mountains themselves.
  • And the things that we are holding on to oftentimes are difficult to let go of, even though we know they are not good for us. 

But the mountain you are avoiding is the mountain God is waiting for you on.
