Calming a raging sea, freeing a man possessed by devils, and healing a woman with a terminal illness are only a few hopeless situation turned to victory as Jesus passed by.
Luke 1:37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.
One day Jairus, a ruler of the synagogue, desperately sought Jesus. Humbling himself at His feet he cried, “My little girl is dying. Please, come quickly.”
On the way Jesus stopped to comfort and heal a woman who touched His garment with faith. As Jairus patiently waits, word comes that his daughter is dead.
Mark 5:36 As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.
Moved with compassion by the grief in this home, Jesus calls the little girl’s spirit back into her body. As she jumps out of bed and runs to her mother, mourners are speechless.
When death, sickness, sorrow, marital problems, financial trouble or any hopeless situation comes; you need a faith that rests in Jesus and in His power alone.
Place your problem beside the Lord, and it suddenly grows very small. It’s nothing compared to the Creator of the universe. Be not afraid. Only believe.
