Mark 11:23. If this be a mountain of fear, of remorse, of worry, of hurtful habits, of ill health, of anything that like a mountain obscures from our view the land of peace and happiness, one word of command—if there be faith—and the mountain is removed and cast into oblivion.

For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, that spreadeth out its roots by the river, and shall not fear when heat cometh, but its leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. Jer. 17:7-8. Cursed is the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from Jehovah.
