Matthew 21:19

17 Then He left them and ^awent out of the city to Bethany, and He lodged there.

The Fig Tree Withered

18 ^aNow in the morning, as He returned to the city, He was hungry.

19 ^aAnd seeing a fig tree by the road, He came to it and found nothing on it but leaves, and said to it, “Let no fruit grow on you ever again.” Immediately the fig tree withered away.

The Lesson of the Withered Fig Tree

20 ^aAnd when the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, “How did the fig tree wither away so soon?”

21 So Jesus answered and said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, ^aif you have faith and ^bdo not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, ^cbut also if you say to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ it will be done.

22 And ^awhatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.”
