If YOU CAN – Part 1

If YOU CAN – Part 1

Jesus said to him, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes." Mark 9:23

We have a got a habit of complaining. We always complain. The bible speaks about a parable where a father is looking deliverance for his child. He comes to the disciples of Jesus and asks them to heal his son, but nothing happened. Now to save the embarrassment, the disciples started searching for Jesus. The disciples were thinking its there fault that the child as not healed, the father was thinking, it was the disciples mistake that his child was not healed. The father was thinking, the disciples don't have the power to heal. He thought that the disciples of Jesus are powerless and they could do nothing. He was full of anger and had made up his mind to complain to Jesus about his useless disciples who could do nothing.

When Jesus arrived on the scene, the disciples complained, "Jesus where were you, everyone is searching for you." More important than others, they needed Jesus to save them from the thoughts and words of the people. The disciples and the people all were waiting for Jesus. Like them we also are waiting on God, with an attitude of complain, when will it happen God? Where are you God? Like the crowd we think that God is at fault because nothing seems to happen. We tend to think that God doesn't want us to be blessed. We think that God is the one who is stopping our blessing and not answering our prayers. The father had all the heart full of complain when he met Jesus, but to his shock, Jesus called him faithless. He was full of questions. He had thoughts, "How can I be faithless, when Jesus' disciples can't heal my child." Immediately Jesus answered, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes." Jesus was saying, "Anyone who prays to Me, it is answered," but are you ready to receive. Same thing God is asking you, "Are you ready to receive? You might be saying, "Yes Lord, I am." God is saying, then it will happen. If you can believe this truth it will be made possible. God bless you.
