Matthew 9:2 NKJV
“Then behold, they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you.”
Matthew 9:2 NKJV
It is so amazing to know that Jesus would forgive the sins of this paralytic man. Jesus did not judge this man but forgave him.
The religious leaders were more interested in judging people instead of helping them to live pleasing to the Lord.
This reflects the heart of our Father in heaven towards all mankind.
We too can come before God by faith to receive forgiveness, healing, and restoration for our lives.
No matter what has happened before and no matter how bad things may have been in the past, there is always hope in Jesus.
Jesus did not apologise to the religious leaders for forgiving the paralytic man. Instead, He proved it by healing the man completely.
When we put our faith above our pride, we will start seeing impossible things take place.
Pride caused the religious leaders to stumble each other but Jesus showed mercy and restored the man’s life completely.
We are called to reflect the same mercy, love, and peace of God towards each other.
We are called to live in His mercy and grace so that we can pour out the same to everyone.
Let us restore, build, and encourage each other every day by the power of God’s love.
Carry the presence of God so that everyone can feel the touch and love of God.
Blessings
