Mark Chapter 9

Brothers and Sisters 😊

📖 In Mark chapter 9 today we see the root of all sinfulness anchored in unbelief, as Jesus echoes the dismay of the prophets who preceded Him…

“Oh faithless generation, how long am I to be with you, and how long shall I bear with you?” (vs 19).

Q. Are you surprised sometimes at your level of anxiety or tendency to be overly concerned when troubling circumstances occur, despite the fact that God has proven over and over again to be so good & faithful to you?

🙏 Heavenly Father I ask your forgiveness for my spiritual weakness and limited faith in you, and I confess that I often look for relief and comfort from created things over and above my all-wise Creator.

🙏 Lord Jesus we praise you today that you have always trusted your Father perfectly, and have credited your sinless ways to our formerly depleted account. Although our hearts are prone to wander you have stayed with us, and have promised to complete the work that you began within us by the gracious and sanctifying power of your Spirit – Please continue to stomp out our unbelief, as you grow our gratitude towards You, our passion for You, and our Faith In You…

✝️ “And the father of the demon possessed boy said, ‘Have compassion on us Lord and help us if you can. Jesus said to him, ‘All things are possible for one who believes’. Immediately the father of the child cried out and said ‘I believe, help my unbelief!”
