In this life we are going to have sickness. In this life we are going to experience difficulties. In this life we will know how it feels to be abandoned, confused and uncomfortable. In this life we will experience loss of loved ones. In this life we will experience...well, we will experience life!
Stuff happens, it's a simple as that. It's just life. However, when stuff happens, we don't need to lose our minds and preoccupy ourselves with a defeated attitude.
When the Synagogue Ruler's daughter became sick unto death, Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid; only believe." When Jesus walked into the house, He saw a bunch of people crying and mourning the loss of this little girl. He asked, "Why all the commotion?"
You see, we're quick to doubt the power and authority of The Lord. We cry before praying we give up before asking and we mourn instead of seeking the miraculous.
Jesus is still healing. Jesus is still resroring. Jesus is still delivering. Jesus is still in control!
Today, before you give up, get down on your knees and seek The Lord in your situation. Avoid the commotion and put in motion the Power and Authority of Jesus, the Christ!
"As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, He said to the ruler of the synagogue, “Do not be afraid; only believe.” And He permitted no one to follow Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James. Then He came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and saw a tumult and those who wept and wailed loudly. When He came in, He said to them, “Why make this commotion and weep? The child is not dead, but sleeping.” And they ridiculed Him. But when He had put them all outside, He took the father and the mother of the child, and those who were with Him, and entered where the child was lying. Then He took the child by the hand, and said to her, “Talitha, cumi,” which is translated, “Little girl, I say to you, arise.” Immediately the girl arose and walked, for she was twelve years of age. And they were overcome with great amazement."
(Mark 5:36-42 NKJV)
