We all long for the kind of faith that can move mountains.  But are our prayers bold enough to see God move them?

What would happen if we started praying bold prayers?  What would happen if we started praying God’s word, and started claiming the promises God has for us?  Maybe then we would discover that the God who parted the sea and walked on water is still active in the world today. I love the stories of the disciples’ failures.  They did not get it right all of the time. In Matthew chapter 17, we come to one of those moments where the disciples come before Jesus in humility to ask, “Jesus, what did we do wrong?”  A man had brought his son before them to be healed, but the disciples could not heal the boy. When they were alone, they asked Jesus, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”  And He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”  But the problem is, we don’t always have the kind of faith that can move mountains.
