The Withered Fig Tree
18As he returned to the city early in the morning, he was hungry. 19Seeing a fig tree by the road, he went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. He said to it, “May there never be fruit from you again!”
Immediately the fig tree withered away. 20When the disciples saw it, they were amazed and asked, “How did the fig tree wither so quickly?”
21Jesus answered them, “Amen I tell you: If you have faith, and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you told this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ it would be done. 22Whatever you ask for in prayer, as you believe, you will receive.”
