TOPIC: The Presence of Jesus Christ
TEXT: Mark 2:1-23(NKJV)
Daily Fountain Devotional For Wednesday, MESSAGE
Today’s reading narrates what Jesus did and peoples response when He visited many places. When Jesus is present “in the house”, His gracious words impacts faith upon men’s hearts to believe that all things are possible with God. The four men in our text demonstrated faith by breaking through the roof to lay the man sick with palsy before Jesus. The sick man was forgiven and healed. His visit to the house of Levi brought the gospel to tax collectors and sinners.
Unfortunately while the presence of Jesus brought the gospel and healing, the Scribes were engrossed with faultfinding and criticisms. Do you act like the Scribes in the presence of Jesus during bible studies, prayers, programs and church services? Your motive in the presence of Jesus will determine what you will get from God.
When Jesus is “in the house,” no sinner is neglected; for the conversion of one notorious sinner could be a gateway to the conversion of others. Levi would have felt so unworthy, when Jesus said “follow Me.” What a lowly Saviour, coming after sinners! Excited, Levi hosted Jesus and many publicans and sinners in his house. Can God count on you, a vessel through whom men can touch the reality of Christ’s saving power?.Are you lowly? Do you have passion for souls that you can reach out to notorious sinners?
PRAYER: Lord, make me a carrier of Your presence, that Christ be magnified in my life.
DAILY FOUNTAIN QUOTE OF THE DAY: All My promises are fulfilled in Christ. 2 Corinthians 1:20
