Matthew 17:20

He replied, "Because of your unbelief. Truly I tell you (I speak the truth to you), if you have faith like a mustard seed [the smallest of all seeds, see Matt. 13:32], you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."
[Jesus now illustrates his teaching by using the mountain, at the foot of which they stand, as an image of far greater and impossible problems and difficulties than casting out a demon. It is not the size of faith that is decisive, but the attitude, the willingness to believe as opposed to apathy and unwillingness. In the parallel passage in Mark 9:24, the boy's father offers a simple prayer: "Lord, I believe! Help my unbelief." Faith like a mustard seed is a persistent faith; it continues to grow and does not give up, and it is nourished by God's word and prayer.]
