Here & Now Mindset (The Mountain – Part 1)

The Mountains in Front of You

One of my favorite places to visit is Las Vegas. Not for the slot machines—though they are fun—but for the mountains.

From my deck, those mountains look so far away, and their size is overwhelming.

And isn’t that just like life?

When we face problems, obstacles, and struggles, we focus on how big and far away the solution seems. Fear, doubt, and frustration creep in because we can’t see a way over or around the mountain in front of us.

But what if we’re looking at it all wrong?

Faith Moves Mountains

Mark 11:23 (NIV)"Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them."

Instead of worrying about tomorrow, God is calling us to focus on today.

Your job is not to move the mountain—your job is to have faith that God will.
Your job is not to know how—it’s to trust that He does.
Your job is to stay present, patient, and joyful—even when it’s hard.

Because when you stand firm in faith, God goes to work.

Gratitude Unlocks Breakthrough

Thank Him while you wait.

Thank Him for being your shield.

Thank Him for moving that mountain out of your way.

Even when doubt tries to creep in—keep thanking Him. When you do, God starts chasing after you, clearing the way, and making what looked impossible—possible.

Pause & Listen – Reckless Love

Before you go any further, take a moment to listen to this song:

🎵 Reckless Love – Cory Asbury

As you listen, close your eyes and reflect on these lyrics:

"There’s no shadow You won’t light up,

Mountain You won’t climb up,

Coming after me."

God is not just watching from a distance—He’s actively chasing after you, clearing the obstacles, and making a way where there was none.

Let this song be your reminder today that your mountain is not bigger than your God.
