Sunday Morning Series - Is Faith Past, Present, or Future - Don't Let Your Future Be in Doubt



Text:  Mark 5:25-34

So many Christians know that God is able to do great things, but is He willing to do them for me? In Matthew 8:1-4, the leper had faith in Jesus' ability but was unsure of His willingness. Jesus immediately answered, "I am willing."

Where do we get our answers as to what God wants to do for us? Instead of living in doubt, we need to go to the Word to get our questions answered. Jesus says to him, "be cleansed," and instructs him to go show himself to the priest. In those days, the priests verified whether or not someone was free of leprosy.

In Matthew 8:5-13, the centurion states the present condition of his servant and declares that he will be healed. This is a statement of a future not yet realized, but certain that it will be. In verse 13, Jesus says, "as you have believed..." What are you declaring about your future?

In Mark 5:25-34, we have the story of the woman with the issue of blood. She visited many doctors and suffered much. While getting worse and spending all her money, she hears about Jesus. Just because you hear the scripture about healing doesn't mean it will do you any good. You must:

1.  Meditate on it.
2.  Develop beliefs in line with the truth.
3.  Then proclaim what you believe.

Many people ask for prayer, but they won't come to church to have hands laid on them. This is the scriptural way - a point of contact. They want to sit back and do nothing. It's necessary to invest ourselves in the process.

Are you dealing with sickness, family issues, or problems that seem impossible to solve? Why not come out and hear teaching from the Word of God that meets you where you live?
