“…and behold, a leper came and worshiped Him, saying “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean”. Then Jesus put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed”, immediately his leprosy was cleansed…” Matthew 8:2-3 (NKJV)
In the first part of this article, we took out time to emphasize on how our Lord Jesus Christ is willing to help you. But then, as a believer, you must believe this truth and settle it in your heart. So, I ask you today, do you believe that the Lord willing and ready to help you? Well, your answer should be yes because that is the reality of the matter. Our opening text is a case study to learn from. The Bible says “…behold, a leper came and worshiped Him, saying “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean”. Then Jesus put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed”, immediately his leprosy was cleansed…” Matthew 8:2-3 (NKJV) Did you see that? Even before the Lord replied him, he touched him to let the man know that helping him was His will.
Beloved, what have you come to believe about the Lord Jesus all these years? Have you come to know Him as your Helper? Well, you should because He really wants to help. The Bible says “…our high priest is not one who cannot feel sympathy for our weaknesses. On the contrary, we have a high priest who was tempted in every way that we are, but did not sin. Let us have confidence, then, and approach God’s throne, where there is grace. There we will receive mercy and find grace to help when we need it…” Hebrews 4:15 (GNB). Did you see that? Jesus Christ who is our high priest, knows what we go through in life, He understands and feels our pain, and this is the reason, He wants to help you. So develop the right mindset today about Jesus Christ and approach the throne of grace with boldness and obtain mercy that you may find grace to use in times of need. My prayer for you today is that as you read this article, whatever you are expecting Jesus Christ to do in your life, shall be done as you reach out to Him in the name of Jesus. Amen!
