1 Samuel 14:37
14:37 So Saul asked God, “Should I go down after the Philistines? Will you deliver them into the hand of Israel?” But he did not answer him that day.
1 Samuel 28:6
28:6 So Saul inquired of the
Lord, but the
Lord did not answer him – not by dreams nor by Urim
nor by the prophets.
Ezekiel 14:3
14:3 “Son of man, these men have erected their idols in their hearts and placed the obstacle leading to their iniquity
right before their faces. Should I really allow them to seek
me?
Matthew 17:16-21
17:16 I brought him to your disciples, but
they were not able to heal him.”
17:17 Jesus answered,
“You
unbelieving
and perverse generation! How much longer
must I be with you? How much longer must I endure
you?
Bring him here to me.”
17:18 Then
Jesus rebuked
the demon and it came out of him, and the boy was healed from that moment.
17:19 Then the disciples came
to Jesus privately and said, “Why couldn’t we cast it out?”
17:20 He told them, “It was because of your little faith. I tell you the truth,
if you have faith the size of
a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; nothing
will be impossible for you.”

Mark 9:19-29
9:19 He answered them,
“You
unbelieving
generation! How much longer
must I be with you? How much longer must I endure
you?
Bring him to me.”
9:20 So they brought the boy
to him. When the spirit saw him, it immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He
fell on the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth.
9:21 Jesus
asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood.
9:22 It has often thrown him into fire or water to destroy him. But if you are able to do anything, have compassion on us and help us.”
9:23 Then Jesus said to him, “‘If you are able?’
All things are possible for the one who believes.”
9:24 Immediately the father of the boy cried out and said, “I believe; help my unbelief!”
9:25 Now when Jesus saw that a crowd was quickly gathering, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “Mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.”
9:26 It shrieked, threw him into terrible convulsions, and came out. The boy looked so much like a corpse that many said, “He is dead!”
9:27 But Jesus gently took his hand and raised him to his feet, and he stood up.
9:28 Then, after he went into the house, his disciples asked him privately, “Why couldn’t we cast it out?”
9:29 He told them, “This kind can come out only by prayer.”
Acts 19:13-17
19:13 But some itinerant
Jewish exorcists tried to invoke the name
of the Lord Jesus over those who were possessed by
evil spirits, saying, “I sternly warn
you by Jesus whom Paul preaches.”
19:14 (Now seven sons of a man named
Sceva, a Jewish high priest, were doing this.)
19:15 But the evil spirit replied to them,
“I know about Jesus
and I am acquainted with
Paul, but who are you?”
19:16 Then the man who was possessed by
the evil spirit jumped on
them and beat them all into submission.
He prevailed
against them so that they fled from that house naked and wounded.
19:17 This became known to all who lived in Ephesus,
both Jews and Greeks; fear came over
them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was praised.
