My dear ladies and gentlemen, how are you doing at the moment? Did you have a good night rest? What are your plans for this new week? Do you think you can break barriers and do the impossible? Well, I like your determination.
Let me ask you: Have you ever found yourself in a hopeless situation and it seems there was no headway? How did you handle the situation? Did you just give in like that? It always seems impossible until one tries something new.
Beloved, the story of the paralyzed man on a bed in the gospel of Luke 5, 17-26 is a clear example of faith and determination. His friends tried to bring him before Jesus, but
the crowd made it impossible for them to find a way of getting in. The crowd was simply not going to make way for the paralyzed man and his friends.
What or who is(are) the crowd preventing you from receiving your healing and breakthrough? Is it your spouse, children, colleagues in the office, classmates, roommates, schoolmates, Church members, etc
Remember, the crowd did not stop them from thinking of another way to access Jesus. Are you giving in so soon? Can't you push yourself forward one more time? Because they didn't allow the crowd to defeat them, Jesus had compassion on him.
When we are faced with a great difficulty and a hopeless situation, like childlessness, delayed marriage, unemployment, no school admission, visa problem, health challenge, etc, the prophet Isaiah tells us: "Be strong, fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God. He will come and save you." (Isaiah 35, 4).
Today, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I pray for you, whatever that is blocking your way to see Jesus, it shall crumble in Jesus name. Amen

Rabbi
