Trust in God’s Goodness & Power
As opposition to Jesus’ ministry
increases, it is no longer safe
to move openly in Galilee. So
Jesus traverses the regions of
Decapolis, Caesarea & Perea,
thereby avoiding the crowds and
deadly plots of religious leaders.
In the concluding days of His
earthly ministry, Jesus begins
to prepare His disciples for the
faithful journey to Jerusalem
that will mark the end of His life
and the beginning of their role
as bearers of the glad tidings.
Lord, thank you for Mark gospel,
which proclaims Christ thro His
ministry of Power and authority
and yet with a servant mindset.
Lord, thanks for Meeting Needs &
help us Lord to share Your story.
Help us not to doubt but to Believe,
to approach You and to Follow You.
And Help us to fully Trust that
You are God of the Impossible.
In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.
Lord, You are Our Bread of Life:
Another great crowd had gathered,
and the people ran out of food
again. Jesus called his disciples
and told them: I feel sorry for
these people… How many loaves
of bread do you have? He asked.
Seven they replied (Mark 8:2-5).
Lord, thank you for the miracle
U performed to feed the multitude
and thank You for the ways You
are still doing miracles today
as we give what we have to You.
There are many people who are
physically and spiritually hungry.
Prepare me, strengthen me and
use me to partner with You in
what You are doing on earth. Amen
Lord, we’ll not doubt but Believe:
Teacher, my son has a mute spirit.
I spoke to Your disciples that they
should cast it out but they could
not… Do something if you can.
“What do u mean: If I can?”Jesus
asked. Anything is possible if a
person believes.The father instantly
replied: I do believe, but help me
not doubt (M9:22-24). His disciples
asked Him privately: Why could
we not cast it out? So He said:
This kind can come out by nothing
but prayer and fasting (Mark 9:29)
Lord, You know our thots & hearts.
When my faith is weak or struggle
with doubts, enable me to turn to U
and be honest about it. I believe in
Your power to accomplish anything
but grant me great trust in You.
Help me understand the authority
You have given in prayer to release
Your power from heaven to see
freedom happen in my life. Amen.
Lord, we will Fully Trust in You:
Looking at the man, Jesus felt
genuine love for him. He told him:
give money to the poor & you will
have treasure in heaven. Then
come, Follow Me (Mark 10:21).
Jesus looked at them and said:
With man this is impossible,
but not with God; all things are
Possible With God (Mark 10:27).
Lord, You are all powerful and
nothing is too hard for You;
not even changing the most
difficult circumstances of my life.
What is impossible for me is
not impossible for You. And so
I ask that U will do the impossible
and transform me to be full of
Your love, joy and peace that
surpasses human understanding.
And enable me to do great things
by the power of Your Spirit. Amen.
