A desperately hurting father came to Jesus. His daughter had just died. He said to Jesus, “Come and put your hand on her, and she will live.” (Matthew 9:18) Jesus came and she did come alive again! Such faith is seen in the father. Such power and compassion is seen in Jesus!
A woman who had been bleeding for 12 years came up behind Jesus and said to herself, “If I only touch His cloak, I will be healed.” (Matthew 9:21) She did touch His hem and she was healed! Such faith is seen in the woman. Such power that flowed through Jesus!
Two blind men followed Jesus and begged Him, “Have mercy on us, Son of David.” They were asking to be healed and when Jesus asked if they believed He could do it, they responded, “Yes, Lord.” (Matthew 9:27-28) Jesus touched them and they could see again! Such faith is seen in the blind men. Such power and compassion is seen in Jesus!
Then a demon-possessed man was brought to Jesus. He could not talk. Jesus drove out the demon and the man began to talk again! (Matthew 9:32-33) Those who brought the man to Jesus showed such faith, Jesus showed such power and compassion!
Death is powerless in His presence.
Sickness and infirmity cannot defeat His power.
Demonic forces must submit to His commands.
Such power! And such compassion that Jesus would use that power for people, like us!
Do you believe He still has that power? Do you believe He still has that compassion? He does! Have faith in Him!
His, by Grace,
Steve
