Zechariah 4:7 (NKJV)

Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain!

Mount Everest is the tallest mountain in the world, standing at a staggering 8,848 meters (29,029 feet). Despite its perilous conditions, thousands of people attempt to climb it each year—all for the thrill of conquering something so immense. In fact, many of the roads we travel today were carved out of mountains and flattened to create clear paths. We are designed to conquer mountains!

Yet not all mountains are physical. Some situations look like mountains. You may be facing “mountains” in your life—whether financial struggles, broken relationships, or health crises—that feel insurmountable, but they are not beyond your control.

Jesus Himself said that if we speak to “this” mountain with faith, it will move (Mark 11:23). Notice the emphasis on “this”—be detailed when confronting your challenges. Don’t just pray vaguely; name the specific problem and declare it shall be removed. Speak boldly to the mountains in your life today. Command them to become plains.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I decree and declare I am a mountain to my mountains! This year, no challenge is too great for me. I speak to every obstacle in my life. You mountain of finances, I control you! You mountain of sickness, I bulldoze through you! Every mountain in my life, I speak now: before me, you are a plain, in the mighty Name of Jesus! Amen.
