Fear is the enemy of faith. Jesus said Peace!
Jesus was specific. Peace and Still.
We would say Jesus HELP!
A small town church had a pub going up across the street. The pastor prayed that the tavern burn down and it got hit by lightening. When the owner took the pastor to court the pastor pleaded not guilty. The judge dismissed the charges saying the pub owner believed in prayer but the pastor did not.
Jesus blamed the fig tree. We blame things. TSU The Stupid User of the computer is at fault.
Mark 11
And seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to see if he could find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. And he said to it, "May no one ever eat fruit from you again." And his disciples heard it. As they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away to its roots. And Jesus answered them, "Have faith in God. Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be taken up and thrown into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him.
Mark 11:13-14, 20, 22-23 ESV
Mountains are metaphorical of the issues in your life. Say to your mountain and it will move. Jesus is coming to move the Mount of Olives some day.
Caleb loved Mount Horeb. Caleb asked for that mountain when he was 85 years old. He lived there the rest of his days.
Whatever means whatever in the Koine Greek. Jesus said that over and over.
Pray specifically. It will revolutionize your life. Joshua made the sun stand still. God had to stop the earth and the moon for a whole day. God did it once and said never again. God moved heaven and earth.
Jesus always prayed specifically.

Jesus prayed specifically. What is the issue? Address it specifically. Every disease must bow to Jesus.
One of our staff got his lip bit and it healed in time.
Know what God's will is. Pray to it. Pastor Keith named a woman's pain and it went away the next day. Praying for lower backs. It was cured.
Blind man. Jesus knew he was blind but wanted to hear him ask specifically.
God is not your heavenly butler. The whatever means whatever is in God's will. Read your Bible.
Abide in the Word. The Truth will set you free.
God will move on your behalf if you have Jesus in your life. Do it NOW.
