MAT 21:22. And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

MAR 11:22. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

LUK 17:6. And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.
