“JESUS’ CHASER”


Saturday
23 February 2013

Preaching:

53When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and anchored there. 54As soon as they got out of the boat, people recognized Jesus. 55They ran throughout that whole region and carried the sick on mats to wherever they heard he was. 56And wherever he went--into villages, towns or countryside--they placed the sick in the marketplaces. They begged him to let them touch even the edge of his cloak, and all who touched him were healed.
Mark 6:53-56

Remarkable things happened once there is a radical faith, great determination and desperation.  The key to that is a great desire for the Lord, chasing Him, loving Him boldly, having a fellowship with Him night and day, and having a steady and solid faith.  Nothing we could find in the Bible that someone was healed that was full of doubt.

Remarkable things happened in Mark 6:53-56
1. Multitude of people was healed.
2. Jesus did not even laid His hands over them.  They themselves find way to touch even just the edge of His cloak.
3. People was desperate despite of distance to carry the sick to market place, villages, towns and cities.

            Radical faith/ desperation to Jesus results to touch the heart of God, move Him to display His power and to do incredible manifestation of His glory.

Some manifestations of desperations to the Lord:
1. Anna to have a child.
2. Bartimeous asked mercy from Jesus to see.
3. Noah to build the ark for many years yet faces many persecutions and did not converted even one soul.
4. Zaccheous climbed on a tree to see Jesus.
5. A bleeding woman for almost twelve years to touch Jesus.

The Lord said:
“They must be glad for everything they have sacrificed for the fulfillment of the will of the Father, for nothing has been wasted.”
            We must not be afraid to be desperate to the Lord.  We must not focus to our weaknesses for the time will come that the Lord will replace it with His glory.

The Lord said:
“Son, because I live, you live and to those who love me will live forever.”
