Why Couldn’t We Cast It Out?

In Matthew 17, we see a striking contrast between glory on the mountain and desperation in the valley. Jesus is transfigured before His disciples, yet moments later they face their own failure when they’re unable to heal a suffering boy. In this message, Pastor Fredo Ramos unpacks what Jesus reveals about faith, dependence, and trust — especially when life exposes our limits. This sermon invites us to name our powerlessness, repent of self-reliance, and return to a life of abiding in Christ. “Little faith” isn’t about size — it’s about connection. Mustard-seed faith, rooted in trust and sustained through prayer, opens our lives to God’s power in what feels impossible.
