‭‭Read Zechariah 4:7 “What are you, mighty mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become a level ground.” 

Mountains represent obstacles that feel immovable–fear, doubt, loss, or uncertainty. They don’t disappear just because we have faith—-and God isn’t asking us to pretend they’re not there.

What’s powerful about this verse is how God talks to the mountain. He doesn’t deny its size, but He does completely redefine the authority it has! In the presence of God, even the biggest obstacle loses its power.

Do you have something in front of you that feels overwhelming, immovable? It’s not greater than Him—it is actually subject to Him. He has authority over every mountain…all of them! 

Reflection: What is your mountain today?

Prayer: God, help me see my mountain in light of Your authority. Help me remember that You have power over all things…even mountains that are overwhelming me. Remind me that You have complete authority over every obstacle in front of me!
