Jesus Heals!

Yesterday’s devotion focused on a mustard seed of faith for healing. God used me to plant a seed in “Bill” so at another time and another place, it would mature. That mustard seed is what Bill needs to rise and walk through the healing power of Jesus Christ. Today, in Mark’s gospel, Jesus is asked to help heal a possessed boy.

The man’s father asks, “if out of the kindness of your heart you can do anything to help us, please do.” Jesus, responds, “If you can? Everything is possible to a man who believes.” The boy’s father immediately exclaimed, “I do believe! Help my unbelief.” Jesus drove out the unclean spirit in the boy. This kind you can drive out only by prayer (V23-29).
