There are many mountains that we face in our lives. These could be mountains of sickness and disease, relationship difficulties, financial troubles, etc. These mountains can be viewed as physical problems at one level but there may be a deeper issue underlying it. Jesus told us to speak to our mountains in His Name and they will be moved, Mark 11:23. What did He really mean? He was referring to the mountains as demonic manifestations that need to be moved. Problems manifest in different ways but those who can discern the spirit behind them can speak to them to be removed. This is a different level of operation from the physical. Once we enter the realm of the spiritual we begin to see with different eyes.
Demonic
We hear little teaching on the demonic in churches these days. Most teachers and preachers shy away from mentioning the word demonic. They are scared of being labeled as out of sink with the present culture. Most want to leave the devil out of our lives by ignoring his works. However, those who are spiritual are aware of the demonic. This is what spiritual warfare is all about. One can't fight the devil with physical and psychological weapons. Our weapons are spiritual that are able to tear down powers, authorities, and principalities in high places. Once we enter this realm of spiritual warfare we will begin to change our talk and walk in our daily life.
Jesus
The blood of Jesus and the Name of Jesus are enough to scare any demonic interference in our lives. The devil trembles at the Name of Jesus. Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil. How much are we involved in this? Could it be that the church has forgotten its initial command to go and make disciples of all nations? The weapons of our warfare are not carnal. Have we lost our power because we have conformed to the ways of the world? Let us speak to our mountains and see them removed from our lives.
