Bible Reading: Mark 2:1-12
Special Verse: Mark 2:4
"And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay."
This story provides a powerful example of visible faith. It is one thing to say that God is a healer, but it is another to act like someone who truly believes it.
Picture the scene: Four men were so convinced that their paralyzed friend would be healed if they could just get him to Jesus that they carried him onto a rooftop, removed the tiles, and lowered him into the crowded room below. This was not just belief—it was faith in action.
Many people claim to have faith but become discouraged when they don’t receive their miracle. The real question is: What have we done to show God that we truly trust Him? Have we ever stepped out in boldness, risking criticism or opposition like these four men did?
When we genuinely trust God's Word, we will be willing to take bold steps, knowing that He has never failed—and He never will. Faith isn’t just something we speak; it’s something we demonstrate.
