In the book of Matthew, Jesus teaches that even a small amount of faith can move mountains in our lives (Matthew 17:20-21). If someone were to ask you right now, “Are you a Christian?” you would likely respond, “Yes.” And if they continued with, “Do you have faith in God?” your answer would probably be, “Of course I do.” Yet the truth is, having faith is often easier said than done.
True faith in God means letting go of backup plans and “what ifs” that linger in the back of your mind. When you are trusting God for a miracle, faith requires you not to think, But if that doesn’t happen, I’ll do this or that. Instead, faith is believing that what you are hoping for has already come to pass, even if it has not yet manifested physically for all to see.
Mountains represent obstacles, immovable and unyielding by nature. They block your path, standing in the way of progress. In life, mountains can take many forms: infertility, sickness, unemployment, fear, personal struggles, or grief.
Whatever the mountain in your life may be today, Jesus assures us that even a little faith can move it. So hold on to that little faith, and with belief, speak these battle prayers to see the mountains in your life move.
Battle prayers to move mountains
Prayer to move mountains
All-Powerful Lord,
I thank You for the assurance and confidence Your Word brings into our lives. Your Word in Matthew reminds us that with faith, we can move mountains. Thank You for the incredible power You have entrusted to us. Today, I tap into that divine power to move every mountain standing in my way.
Lord, I am facing a roadblock, but I refuse to turn back. Instead, I declare with faith and authority that these mountains must move and clear a path for me. I pray that every obstacle in my life will be removed so I can step into the abundant life You have prepared for me.
Father, I trust and believe that beyond these mountains lies the life You have destined for me. Let these mountains move, Lord, so I may walk boldly into the purpose You have set before me.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Prayer to move mountains of infertility
Almighty God,
Your Word declares that we are to multiply and fill the earth, and I hold onto this promise, knowing that barrenness and infertility are not my portion. This challenge is but a mountain in my life, and I stand in faith, believing that every mountain can be moved.
I pray that Your Holy Spirit will descend upon me and my spouse. Let it fill us completely, Lord, and work within our bodies. Whatever is preventing us from conceiving, I ask that Your Holy Spirit cleanse and restore us. You are our Creator, and You made us perfectly in Your image. That is why I believe You can make us fruitful and bless us with the ability to conceive.

Your Word says that hands that do not work cannot eat, and I earnestly desire to work, Lord, so I can provide for myself and my family.
I pray that whatever is standing in my way, any obstacle, stumbling block, or delay preventing me from securing employment, be removed in the mighty name of Jesus. I dedicate every job application and every interview to You, Lord. Let Your favour rest upon me, and let the opportunities that are meant for me not pass me by.
Father, guide me to the right job, the one You have prepared for me. Let Your grace and favour open doors that no one can shut. I trust in Your perfect timing and provision. Thank You, Lord, for hearing my prayer and for the job that I believe is on its way.

I am deeply grateful for all that You do for me. Thank You for my life, my health, and the countless blessings You have surrounded me with. Your goodness fills my heart with gratitude.
Yet, Lord, I can’t help but feel like I’m in the same spot. It feels as though I am standing still while life moves on around me. It feels like a great mountain is blocking my path, preventing me from moving forward in life. Father, I come to You in faith, asking that every mountain of stagnation in my life be moved right now in the name of Jesus.
Whatever is causing this stagnation in my life, I dismantle it in Jesus’ mighty name. Lord, clear my path and guide my steps so that I can move forward. Let me begin to see meaningful progress and breakthroughs in every area of my life.

Times are hard, and I feel lost, unsure of what to do. My life seemed stable, but now it feels like I’ve stopped progressing, and my finances are dwindling. It feels as though something unseen is blocking the pathway to my financial stability and breakthrough.
Father, I bring this burden before You. Whatever mountain stands in front of my finances, preventing me from receiving the breakthrough that is mine, I pray against it in the powerful name of Jesus. I declare that this mountain of poverty and decline must move, making way for abundance, provision, and progress in my life.
Lord, I trust in Your promises to supply all my needs according to Your riches in glory. I believe that You are opening doors of opportunity and blessing, restoring my finances, and guiding me to thrive once again. Thank You, dear God, for hearing my prayer and for the financial breakthrough that I know is on the way.
