Jesus replied to them, “Have faith in God. Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. Therefore I tell you, everything you pray and ask for-believe that you have received it and it will be yours.”
Mark 11:22-24
Prayer:
Father, I want to be a man/woman who prays with great faith. I want to believe that you hear my prayers and use my prayers to move mountains in my life and in the lives of those I am praying for. Lord, you are King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Thank you that you want me to ask you to do extraordinary things in prayer, such as moving mountains. You want me to be free of doubt and to pray with boldness – with deep faith and conviction of your ability to move mountains. Father, I confess that I do have mountains that need to be “thrown into the sea.” Doubt, confusion, fear, pride, control, shame, and trying to earn your approval/acceptance are just some of the mountains. I have sin and struggles that have become mountains in my life. I have problems and pain in my relationships with those I love that feel like mountains. There are mountains in people’s lives whom I love and want desperately to experience freedom.
Father, help me and teach me to pray with faith that moves mountains. Guide me through your word and your Spirit to pray “mountain moving” prayers. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Ask God to show you the mountains that need to be moved in your life so that you can pray bold prayers in faith for you, your family, and others.
