Meditate On
…He said to him, “Do you want to be made well?” The sick
man answered Him, “Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is
stirred up; but while I am coming, another steps down before me.” Jesus said to
him, “Rise, take up your bed and walk.” And immediately the man was made well,
took up his bed, and walked...
John 5:6–9
Jesus Is
All You Need
I love the story of how Jesus healed the paralytic at the
pool of Bethesda. This man, paralyzed for 38 years, lay by the pool without
help and without much hope, waiting for an angel to come to stir its waters—it
was known that the first one to step into the waters then would be healed of
his condition. But because of his paralysis, the man could never be the first
one in. So he kept waiting there, hoping for a miracle.
Then one day, he encountered a Man higher than
angels—Jesus—who met him at the point of his need. Jesus came to the paralyzed
man, and this man, who had been suffering for so many years, walked away
completely healed.
Today, Jesus wants to meet you at the point of your need.
You don’t need special seasons, circumstances or angels to see the
manifestation of your healing. You only need the Lord, who is here right now to
heal you. He is your very present help in time of need (Psalm 46:1)!
