Basic Scripture Today 15th August 2025 BASIC SCRIPTURES: MARK 9:14-23 Prayer points and Declarations

Scripture Reading: Mark 9:14-23 (NKJV)

14 And when He came to the disciples, He saw a great multitude around them, and scribes disputing with them.
15 Immediately, when they saw Him, all the people were greatly amazed, and running to Him, greeted Him.
16 And He asked the scribes, “What are you discussing with them?”
17 Then one of the crowd answered and said, “Teacher, I brought You my son, who has a mute spirit.
18 And wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; he foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth, and becomes rigid. So I spoke to Your disciples, that they should cast it out, but they could not.”
19 He answered him and said, “O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to Me.”
20 Then they brought him to Him. And when he saw Him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the ground and wallowed, foaming at the mouth.
21 So He asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood.
22 And often he has thrown him both into the fire and into the water to destroy him. But if You can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.”
23 Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

Devotional Insight: The Power of Faith in Impossible Situations

1. The Struggle of Unbelief (vv. 14-19)

   • The disciples failed to cast out the demon due to lack of faith and prayer (Mark 9:29).

   • Jesus’ response (“O faithless generation!”) shows His frustration with weak faith.

   • Lesson: Even when others fail, Jesus remains the solution.

2. The Father’s Honest Doubt (vv. 20-22)

   • The boy’s father said, “If You can do anything…”—revealing his wavering faith.

   • Lesson: God meets us where we are, even in our doubts, but demands active belief.

3. Jesus’ Challenge to Believe (v. 23)

   • “All things are possible to him who believes.”

   • Lesson: Faith unlocks miracles, but unbelief limits God’s power in our lives.
