Does your faith work?


And Jesus answered saying to them, 

"Have faith in God. 

Truly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 

'Be taken up and cast into the sea,' 

and 

does not doubt in his heart, 

but 

believes that what he says is going to happen, it will be granted him.

"Therefore I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and they will be granted you. 

"Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your Father who is in heaven will also forgive you your transgressions. 

["But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father who is in heaven forgive your transgressions.] 

Mark 11:22-26 (NASB)

The basis of our faith is in God. 

Ask...
1). Can God do it? Matthew 19:26

2). Is it in line with His will (His word)? I John 5:14

3). Will it bring honor to God? Matthew 6:9

4). Do I qualify for the promise? Matthew 6:33

If your request meets the test above, it still might not happen, but why not?

1). Do you express doubt in your prayers and your everyday speech? James 1:6-9

2). Do you believe that it will happen?

3). Do you forgive others?
