The Church has prided itself on being a house of mercy. Like the Pool called Bethesda we gather the hurting and wait for healing. But have we allowed Jesus to be the Healer?
Tonight, has your experience with church been like the paralyzed man at the pool of Bethesda? Have you hoped every day for Jesus to intervene in your life and make the difference you seek? Have you been disappointed with the results of your waiting on God? Tonight, Jesus is passing by. We don't have to wait for a prophet or a preacher or a special service. Jesus is risen and ascended to heaven for you and me. He hears you, sees you and says get up and walk! We have work to do for the Father.
