Mountains have always been a source of wonder, inspiration, and fear for humans. This is especially true for people who live in regions that are mountainous. The Bible mentions mountains a number of times, and it provides us with insight into their significance. For example, in Job 38:1, God says that the world was created on Mount Seir, a mountain range that spread across the land. In 1 Samuel 2:8 and Psalm 104:7, we learn that “mountains” are places where God’s angels reside.
Mt. Sinai, where Moses received the Ten Commandments, is just one example of how mountains are significant in the Bible. Mountains often symbolize a place of divine encounter or revelation. They are also seen as places of refuge and security. In Psalm 23, for example, the Lord is described as a “shepherd who leads [the believer] beside still waters” and “sets me down in a green pasture.” The image of being led beside still waters conveys safety and rest, while the image of being set down in a green pasture suggests refreshment and growth.
Mountains are a fixture of life on Earth. Rising up and dominating landscapes, they have inspired people for centuries. Many cultures have stories about mountains, their origins, and the creatures that live there. The Bible has a lot to say about mountains, too. In particular, it speaks to the importance of faith in God.
The Bible says that mountains are “a sign of God’s promise” (Ps. 125:1) and that faith in God is the key to moving mountains (Eccles. 1:4).
Bible Verses About Mountains
Matthew 21:21-22
Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Psalm 46:1-3
To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
Exodus 19:17-20
And Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet with God; and they stood at the nether part of the mount. And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the LORD descended upon it in fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly. And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice. And the LORD came down upon mount Sinai, on the top of the mount: and the LORD called Moses up to the top of the mount; and Moses went up.
1 Kings 18:17-21
And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel? And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father’s house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of the LORD, and thou hast followed Baalim. Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at Jezebel’s table. So Ahab sent unto all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together unto mount Carmel. And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.
Psalm 95:1-5
O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms. For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods. In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also. The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.
Psalm 104:5-9
Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever. Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains. At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away. They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them. Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.
Matthew 5:1-7
And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him: And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
