Dear Heavenly Father,
It is said that that we’ve come this far by faith, it is also said that faith the size of a mustard seed will remove mountains. Is it possible that we’ve come this far presuming on You, solely by Your grace and not by faith at all? Why do we continue to repeat the errors of the past? Hear our prayers….they are always the same. Are there strongholds in us that keep us repeating the errors of the past? You want us to remove these mountains of unbelief in ourselves. Holy Spirit has constrained us because we can’t be trusted too far yet. Each of us has or belongs to a network that could be put to work but because of the potential for abuse You save others from us. We need to graduate from the crisis management mode of presuming on You to the faith that will remove the mountains of presumption. These mountains are the obstacles to the transforming of our minds, the new creation in the earth. It is not our intentions that are wrong but our methods. We’re holding our own deliverance back by our unbelief. Our unbelief is represented by our small mindedness and reflected by our cultural and traditional presuppositions of church culture and norms; American culture and norms. We think that just because we are Yours we can expect “magic”. We are called to have dominion as lived in vessels; Temples of the Holy Spirit in whom the mind & character of Jesus Christ is being formed.
