Hope for Today

DAY 7 OF 7

Without doubt and full of faith!

Have you ever set your mind on something that you had to achieve at all costs? You just couldn't be dissuaded? If so, you know that you put all your strength into it, your time...yes, your whole heart!

"When Jesus saw their faith...." (Mark 2:5, NKJV)!

This is one phrase from the Bible, one phrase that can change everything! The men in question were also completely convinced of their idea. They FULLY BELIEVED that the plan to bring their paralyzed friend to Jesus would succeed. (see Mark 2:1-12)

But to do so, they had to climb up onto a roof. And not only that! They didn't just have to climb onto the roof to then miraculously find an entrance into the house there…they also had to keep at it and make an opening first! They probably damaged the house in the process, but it didn't matter to them...they had a goal and were full of faith !

Jesus recognized this faith immediately: "When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, 'Son, your sins are forgiven you.'" (Mark 2:5, NKJV) He then said, "'...arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.'" (Mark 2:11, NKJV)

I love what happened here! These men were without doubt and full of faith as they brought their friend to Jesus. Nothing could stop them. And Jesus saw and rewarded their faith! All their efforts paid off!

The people who witnessed it were amazed: "...'We never saw anything like this!'" (Mark 2:12, NKJV)

God also wants you to be amazed today and as you continue on your journey!

Go forward without doubt and full of faith with what God has placed on your heart...even if it becomes exhausting along the way! Because whoever is without doubt and full of faith will undoubtedly experience what is possible for God!

You're a miracle!
