Mark 11:20
The withering of the fig tree was of a nature as to be quite noticeable. Though not a horticulturist, I can say that this withering would be somewhat unnatural. Few outward conditions would cause such a death of the tree. To dry up from the roots was quite strange. Perhaps poisoning in the ground, or some serious tree desease, might simulate this type of destruction. So, this tells us that the effect on the tree was very obviously due to Christ’s words, and not some other condition.
Heavenly Father, thank you for your power. Your mighty power reassures us as we face the evil of this world. We know you are in control. What a blessing that is! We will praise you for your mighty power and steadfast love. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
