TOPIC : GOD IS STILL IN CONTROL
TEXT JOHN 5:2-8.
[2]Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
[3]In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
[4]For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.
[5]And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
[6]When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
[7]The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.
[8]Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
The sick man had been in that state for 38 years.
He was at the pool of mercy but could not find help because the competition was beyond his human capacity.
When even your helpers fail, there is one helper who never fails.
He is called the omnipresent because He is our ever present help in our times of need.
The Bible said, Jesus had been observing him for a while.
Beloved, God hasn't removed His gaze off you, you are coming out of that mess with a great message.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
