Mark 2:7 ‘Why does this fellow talk like that? He’s blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?’

Can you imagine the uproar when the church leaders watched as Jesus, a human being, forgave the paralysed man!

We must never forget Jesus is the Son of God and was given full authority by God to do many things... Just as Jesus gave disciples the authority to go out and heal people too.

Trust in God and obey what He asks, even if it is to reach down into the gutter and help a poorly soul, forgotten by the world...

Psalm 51:7 Cleanse me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

How brave do you feel?

Are you willing to step forward and ask God to cleanse you?

We often talk about our good lives as Christians, but we all know we still have issues in our lives.

God has promised to forgive us and letting Him in to do that forgiveness can be a big step for some of us.

But one which is truly liberating!

Deuteronomy 11:11 But the land you are crossing the Jordan to take possession of is a land of mountains and valleys that drinks rain from heaven.

Even when the Israelites were going into “a land flowing with milk and honey,” they were told what it would be like...

Not a land of flat plains where they would have to irrigate all the time to tend to crops, but a land of mountains and valleys where God would supply their water.

What God was saying is life would radically change for them and they would have to depend on Him more than before.

Mark 10:37 They replied, 'Let one of us sit at your right and the other at your left in your glory.'

We all like to think we can have a seat next to Jesus when we get to Heaven; just like James and John said to Jesus when He asked what they wanted.

The truth is far greater than we can imagine - we are going to be in Heaven!

As much as we try to think what being in Heaven is going to be like, no words can effectively explain just how glorious it is going to be, so we ask for more... It's what we do...
