Mark 11:12-25
\n12 On the following day, when they came from Bethany, he was hungry. 13 Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to see whether perhaps he would find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. 14 He said to it, \u201cMay no one ever eat fruit from you again.\u201d And his disciples heard it.
\n15 Then they came to Jerusalem. And he entered the temple and began to drive out those who were selling and those who were buying in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves; 16 and he would not allow anyone to carry anything through the temple. 17 He was teaching and saying, \u201cIs it not written,<\/p>\n
\n\u2018My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations\u2019?
\nBut you have made it a den of robbers.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n18 And when the chief priests and the scribes heard it, they kept looking for a way to kill him; for they were afraid of him, because the whole crowd was spellbound by his teaching. 19 And when evening came, Jesus and his disciples went out of the city.
\n20 In the morning as they passed by, they saw the fig tree withered away to its roots. 21 Then Peter remembered and said to him, \u201cRabbi, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered.\u201d 22 Jesus answered them, \u201cHave faith in God. 23 Truly I tell you, if you say to this mountain, \u2018Be taken up and thrown into the sea,\u2019 and if you do not doubt in your heart, but believe that what you say will come to pass, it will be done for you. 24 So I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
\n25 \u201cWhenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.\u201d
