Mark 11:24 says, "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." In the new age and in many churches, it's taught that if you believe hard enough what you've prayed for, then you *must* receive whatever you've asked for. The logic is that since you're having nothing but faith with no doubting, then God must give it to you. To the New Ager, this is a Scripture used for the Law of Attraction, a new thought practice that teaches you can manifest your reality through positive thinking and energies. So what does this Scripture actually mean?

A constant question I get asked is what scriptures really mean when they're misused in such ways by so many. I asked Mike to come on my channel a while ago and break down 10 of the most misused scriptures from the Word of Faith camp and the New Age. I gave him the scripture and explained how it's interpreted by someone in the New Age and Word of Faith. The then breaks down the passage and explains what it actually means.

There are a lot of scriptures that are used to support WoF (Word of Faith) new age/new thought teachings. This is just one and the ones that I see mostly misused in churches and from new age/new thought teachers.
