Scripture: Mark 9:23 Jesus said to him, if you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes Observation: In this story a man brings his demon possessed child to Jesus for help if Jesus could help. Jesus responds by asking the father if he could believe. The father responded well, that he did believe, asked for help for his unbelief, and the child was delivered. Jesus puts it right back into this mans court maybe because the man questioned Jesus ability. In any case, Jesus let him ...

Scripture: Mark 2:5 When Jesus saw their faith . . . Observation: This passage is from the story in Mark of the four men who carried their friend to Jesus.

There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away. Observation: I like how the Book of Revelation ends up. The devil is thrown into a lake of fire and tormented forever thats just great news. But God comforts His children by wiping away their tears. And these tears do not come back. When God Himself wipes them away they are gone. We will not ...

They exhibited perseverance and endurance in the face of what must have been ...

2 Peter 1:13 NKJ Yes, I think it is right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you Observation: Interesting terminology used here and an important principle. Peter spoke of being in his tent. He had become so conscious of the fact that he was a spirit with a soul who lived in a body that he referred to his body as a tent. A tent is the ultimate in temporary dwelling places. If you live in a tent today here in America you would be considered homeless. But for Peter he ...
