The father backs you up

“And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry: And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet. And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.”
Mark 11:12-14(KJV)


Our opening scripture shows us an event that took place in the life of Jesus. Jesus was hungry on His way from Bethany, because He found no figs in a fig tree He saw along the road, He cursed it saying, “No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.”

In Mark 11:20-22, the Bible tells us what happened the next morning after Jesus cursed the fig tree, “And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.”

From the above, we can observe that Jesus got the kind of result He got as He walked this earth because He had faith in God. In other words, He spoke and prayed the way He did, and got the results He got because He had confidence in God. Do you have such confidence in God that He will always back you up and do whatsoever you ask in His name? This is why 1 John 5:14-15 says, “And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.”

PRAYER
Dear Father I thank you because according to your Word, whatsoever I bind on earth is bound in heaven, and whatsoever I loose on earth is loosed in heaven. Therefore, I agree with your Word and I curse every tree that you have not planted in my life, and I speak a release to all the bounties you have for me in this season to come to me by free course in Jesus Name. Amen.

2 Kings 7:1-20, Hebrews 11:3.

DOING THE WORD
