(Mark 9:23 – NKJV)…..Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

In many cases, people are educated in what is impossible. They have come to believe that if they put their hand to anything they will fail. What a sad thing to be beaten down by doubt.

(Hebrews 10:23 – NKJV)…..Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.

Do you ever think about the things you say? What people hear coming from your mouth, that really is coming from your heart (Luke 6:45). Think about your confession that people hear.

What do you think of when you hear the word “Ebenezer”? You might remember the motion picture “A Christmas Carol” where Ebenezer Scrooge is unkind and expresses his dislike for Christmas until some ghostly visitors teach him a few lessons concerning his life. 

But the Bible is much older than the Charles Dickens story. In the Old Testament, the prophet Samuel named a rock Ebenezer! Have you ever thought od naming a rock by that name? Samuel and other Israelites were gathered in a town called …
