In Mark 5 from
verse 21 to the end, after Jesus crossed over to the other side, He was
asked by Jarius a ruler in the synagogue
to come and heal his daughter who later died but was brought back to life.
When the
messenger broke the news to Jarius that his daughter was dead publicly, Jesus
quickly looked at Jarius and assured him and said, ‘be not afraid, only
believe’. No matter what you are going
through, Jesus is privy to it. What is
the condition that you are going through that is so bad that people around you
are even weeping with you? Jesus is
saying to you, ‘only believe’. His words
are life and powerful.
Fear has torment
and anytime a man begins to live in fear, he is tormented on the inside. The first thing Jesus did was to remove fear
from the life of Jarius. Anytime you are
looking up to God for something, your faith in Him will make Him move in your
situation. It doesn’t matter how long
you have been carrying or going through troubles, Jesus is saying to you, ‘do
not be afraid, only believe’. When Jesus
spoke to Jarius, he stayed glued to Jesus and kept on going. The messenger was wondering what Jesus was
doing with Jarius. Notwithstanding,
Jarius would rather believe Jesus than what the messenger had come to say.
As soon as the
words of life which Jesus spoke entered into the girl, it quickened her and
brought her back to life and rose up. To
confirm she was not dead, food was given to her and she started doing the
activities she could not do before.
Let the word
minister life and salvation to you today!
