Start and set aside all obstacles
Start and set aside all obstacles
"And since they could not get close to him because of the crowd, they discovered the roof From where he was, and making an opening, they lowered the bed on which lay the paralytic "
(Mark 2: 4)
When the four men carrying the paralytic arrived at the house where Jesus was, they could not enter. Then they went up to the roof, but there was no entrance there. They had to remove part of the roof, they ripped off the material that was on the roof, to create their own "door", through which they could lower their friend. Nothing that was done to bring this man to where Jesus was easy. They had to make it happen.
The roof was an obstacle for them, but he could not stop them.
• What is keeping you from approaching Jesus?
• Maybe your temperament ...
• Maybe your loneliness ...
• Maybe your frustration ...
• Maybe a problem of your childhood ...
Start the roof! Come to where Jesus is, no matter what you have to overcome.
• Who told you that you could not get a job?
• Who told you that you could not have a good marriage?
• Who told you that you could not be freed from drugs?
Start the roof! Believe that God can do it.
If you are bringing another man to Jesus, you will face all kinds of obstacles
He has not been in church in the last twenty years. He will not go with you. .
He is very limited by the effect of drugs to know what is happening. He is not in condition to go with you.
He is very angry to listen to your invitation. Do not try to talk to him now.
He is too involved in criminal life to be able to abandon it. Do not put yourself in danger.
Start the roof! Do not let fear or pride get in the way. Take the man to Jesus
I do not know which "roof" separates you or someone you love from Jesus. Whatever the reason, it can be removed. It can be torn out.
While these men worked on the roof, they were only a few meters away from Jesus. They were very close to his miracle. Nobody was going to deny their opportunity.
You are very close to your miracle today. Get to where Jesus is, no matter what the obstacles are. Do not let anything or anyone stop you.
Do not give up. Jesus has a
miracle for you and for those you
you love Go to Jesus. His power is enough
for every need.
miracle for you and for those you
you love Go to Jesus. His power is enough
for every need.
