FAITH THAT OVERCOMES

Overview

Faith allows us to see that God can do miracles despite obstacles.

Observation

In Mark 2:1-12, four friends took radical action to bring their paralysed friend to Jesus, believing that Jesus would heal him. Jesus was thronged by crowds and impossible to reach, but the friends went up on the roof, broke a hole in it, and lowered their friend right in front of Jesus. Jesus saved and healed the paralysed man that day. A miracle had taken place. And it was all because four friends saw with eyes of faith.

Faith enables us to see that miracles are possible no matter what obstacles may lie in the way. And faith inspires us to overcome difficulties.

When faced with challenges, it is easy to see only the obstacles. But like the faith-filled friends, we need to see that God is able and wants to perform miracles.

Response

God is able to do the miraculous! Do not let the circumstances or difficulties discourage you. Let us ask God to open our eyes of faith to believe Him for miracles.

Prayer

Dear Lord, I believe You are the God for whom nothing is impossible. Open my eyes to see the miracles You can do in my circumstances. I want to see beyond the obstacles. Shift my mindset from the impossible to the possible, from limitations to Your unlimited power. I pray this in faith, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
