There are some popular teachings that with enough faith any problem can be overcome. If we want to live a prosperous, healthy, happy, carefree life then we just need more faith. The problem is this is not a biblical teaching about faith. The bible teaches something very different.
You can pray for anything, and if you have faith, you will receive it. Matthew 21:22
But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. James 2:18
All these people died still believing what God had promised them. They did not receive what was promised, but they saw it all from a distance and welcomed it. Hebrews 11:13
All these people earned a good reputation because of their faith, yet none of them received all that God had promised. Hebrews 11:39
And it is impossible to please God without faith… Hebrews 11:6
