In Mark 4:35-39 (KJV) we read about how Jesus spoke to a storm, He said: "Peace, be still" We then learn that immediately there was a: "great calm". Jesus then reprimanded his disciples for their lack of faith. Notice that Jesus didn't pray for the storm to stop, he just told it to. Jesus has authority over nature and we have the same authority as well.

In Mark 11:14 Jesus spoke to a fig tree and then in verse 23 of that same chapter he told us that we could speak to a mountain and tell it to move. If we assume that any obstacle in our lives is a mountain, then according to this verse we can simply speak to it and it will move. This sounds very simple; however, we need to speak to our mountains out of a heart of faith because: "out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh" (Matt 12:34). Even before Jesus said we can speak to mountains, he said, "have faith in God" (verse 22) and this is the key.

God has given faith to all of his people (Rom 12:3). If you don't feel like your faith is where you would like it to be spend a few minutes each day meditating on verses to do with faith; this will serve to increase your faith: “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” (Rom 10:17). As your faith grows you can step out in faith and see the results, guaranteed!
