Congratulations. Your gift of a new day is here. Ready to live it big. You're listening to the Big Life

Devotional podcast. Now, here's Pamela to get you fired up for all God has available for you today.

Well, good morning, beautiful. Welcome to a brand new day of life. I am coming to you live from a

beautiful campgrounds in South Carolina. We're traveling back to the Florida Keys over the next

couple days camping along the way. I got up super early this morning. I sat in the pitch dark,

studying my Bible with my flashlight. And as you know,

I've been studying the book of Mark. And so you've probably noticed a whole lot of our devotionals

over the last week have been from Mark. And this morning, as I was reading Mark chapter 11,

I came across something that Jesus said that really just grabbed me, really brought me into a deeper

study of something I personally have struggled with for several years.

And we're just going to dig deeper on this.

So if you have your Bible, you can open up to Mark chapter 11. We're doing a really

unscripted Bible study time together today. There's not a script. There's not an outline.

We're just going to talk together today. Okay. So our scripture is Mark chapter 11,

verse 22 through 25 it says Jesus says to his disciples have faith in God

I tell you the truth you can say to this mountain may you be lifted up and thrown into the sea,

and it will happen. But you must really believe it will happen and have no doubt in your heart.

I tell you, you can pray for anything. And if you believe that you've received it, it will be yours.

But when you are praying, first forgive anyone you are holding a grudge against so that your

Father in heaven will forgive your sins too.

I think this scripture has been used out of context so many times it has done a whole lot of damage.

So I've told you all before, I did not grow up in church. I didn't know anything about Jesus
