Mark 11:20-23 ESV
As they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away to its roots. And Peter remembered and said to him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered.” And Jesus answered them, “Have faith in God. Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him.
The fig tree and mountain both symbolize Israel and its covenant with God. Our hope and victory rest on faith in Jesus. If we believe in our hearts and confess with our mouths, we can be set free from the mountain of the Law and enter the freedom that is in Christ.
