THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

WHEN PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO PUSH YOU DOWN, DON’T WORRY, GOD SEES AND HEARS…..

In the Scripture, four men carried a paralyzed man to see Jesus. When Jesus saw them, He said to the man, “Your sins have been FORGIVEN.” Some of the RELIGEOUS leaders were OFFENDED and began to MURMER, “Who does He think HE is? Only GOD can forgive sins.” CHALLENGED by His critics, Jesus said to them, “Which is easier to SAY, ‘Your SINS are forgiven,’ or ‘ARISE, take up your bed and WALK'” To PROVE to them that He was the Son of God, He turned to the paralyzed man and told him to rise UP. The man stood up, PERFECTLY well, and I’m sure the religious leaders nearly passed OUT.

Jesus COULD have just forgiven the man’s SINS and moved ON, but when His enemies MURMERED about it, Jesus HEALED him. When people are talking about YOU, trying to push you DOWN and keep you in a dark PLACE, don’t WORRY–God SEES and HEARS them. They’re putting you in position for PROMOTION, to be BLESSED in a GREATER way.

Today’s Scripture:

Mark 2:10–11, NKJV

“But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”–He said to the paralytic, “I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.”
