Old Testament

Matthew 17:14-20
Jesus Heals a Boy With a Demon
14When they came to the crowd, a man approached Jesus and knelt in front of him. 15“Lord,” he said, “have mercy on my son because he has seizures and is suffering terribly. He often falls into the fire or into the water. 16I brought him to your disciples, but they were not able to cure him.”
17Jesus answered, “O unbelieving and perverse generation! How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring him here to me.” 18Jesus rebuked the demon, and it went out of the boy, and he was cured from that hour.
19Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why were we unable to drive it out?”
20He said to them, “Because of your little faith.[] Amen I tell you: If you have faith like a mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.
