How many times have you prayed and begged for God to move but you see nothing?I have. I begged God to heal my mom. I begged for more faith. I begged for anything!
“Father, please please please please please increase my faith.”
(Like the more times I say “please,” the more likely He is to do it.)
“I will do anything if You will just give it to me. Let’s go. Send me. Okay, I am waiting …”
I’m not the only one who has begged for more faith.
The disciples did this, too: “The apostles<span class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-NIV-25657H" data-link="(H)” style=”box-sizing: border-box; font-family: “georgia” , “times new roman” , serif; line-height: 22px; position: relative; top: 0px; vertical-align: top;”> said to the Lord, ‘Increase our faith!’” (Luke 17:5 NIV).
Look at Jesus’ response.
“He replied, ‘If you have faith as small as a mustard seed,<span class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-NIV-25658J" data-link="(J)” style=”box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 22px; position: relative; top: 0px; vertical-align: top;”> you can say to this mulberry tree, “Be uprooted and planted in the sea,” and it will obey you’” (Luke 17:6 NIV).
He was saying that you do not need more faith. The tiniest amount of faith is more than enough for you to speak to a MOUNTAIN and it will be uprooted and thrown into the sea! You have all the faith you need.

We don’t need more faith. We need our faith to be pure and not tainted or diluted by the hurts, bitterness, and unforgiveness we can have in our hearts. Many times when you fail to see the thing you are hoping for come to pass, a little bit of doubt creeps in and dilutes your ability to believe God.
You don’t need more faith!
Clean up your broken heart so you can trust fully
in Jesus and the word of God!
in Jesus and the word of God!
How?
Jesus said, “But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting” (Matthew 17:21 NIV). (Also see Mark 9:29.)
Many people pray and fast to get God to move, but prayer and fasting are meant to get your heart to move into alignment with God’s heart and help you to weed out the old hurt, unbelief, and bitterness.
Let’s study this and talk about it. It’s a big subject.
If we can truly understand this, it changes everything!
