Praying About the Mountain, Instead of Speaking to the Mountain

Jesus did not teach us to pray about mountains. Mountains here can be symbolic of any challenging situation you are facing. It might be in your marriage, finances, or issues regarding your children. The instruction of Jesus is not to pray about them but to speak to them. This reminds me of Moses at the Red Sea. God told Moses, “Don’t cry to Me, stretch out your hands and divide the Sea.” In the same way, God is telling you to speak His Word to that situation, and He will remove it out of your way.
