Mark 11:22β24 (KJV) βAnd Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith….
The journey of faith is not a sprint but a streetβsometimes long, narrow, and steep, yet always leading to Godβs promises. βFaith Streetβ is where miracles arrive, but only if you remain on it long enough. Many start strong, but delays and disappointments tempt them to turn onto βDoubt Avenueβ or βComplaint Boulevard.β Jesus reminds us that real faith holds on until the mountain moves, refusing to let doubt take root.
Abraham stayed on Faith Street for 25 years before Isaac was born (Gen 21:1β2). Joseph endured betrayal, false accusation, and prison before reaching the palace (Gen 50:20). Even the disciples had to wait in Jerusalem for the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:4β5). Godβs timing is perfect, but His delivery address never changesβif you move, you may miss the blessing He sent. Patience is not idle waiting; it is confident trust in Godβs faithfulness.
Leaving Faith Street too soon can cost you your promise. Israelβs generation that left Egypt died in the wildernessβnot because God failed, but because they abandoned trust (Heb 3:19). Remaining means praying when nothing moves, praising when nothing changes, and obeying when nothing makes sense. The enemyβs goal is to get you off the street where Godβs promise will arrive. Stay planted, stay expectantβyour reward will find you right on time.
