Faith is the victory that over cometh the world.
If you have faith the size of a mustard seed you shall say to this mountain move and it shall move.
If a man utterly abandons his own ways in favor of the ways of God, he has already overcome the world and the Grace of Jesus Christ abounds in him.
If we are willing to abandon even the smallest of our own things in favor of God (faith as a mustard seed) then the mountain of the Lord (Jesus Christ) shall move and His Grace shall be applied.
By dying to self we can live in Him.
What brings defeat then is the clinging to your own ways.
