Fw: Step Forward

Team:

Great Message by Coach Mike MacIntosh.

In Mark 3:1-3 a man with a Withered hand came to Jesus and Jesus healed him.

Friends today God can heal our Withered Dreams and Goals and get us back in the Game with a new Future and Hope. Jer 29:11.

He can Heal our Withered Relationships and give us a Fresh New Beginning with Forgiveness and Grace.

Whatever is Withered in our Life God can and Will Restore it when we let Him.

Just Go! Win the Day!

Rick
Phil 4:13

And He entered the synagogue again, and a man was there who had a withered hand. So they watched Him closely, whether He would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse Him. And He said to the man who had the withered hand, "Step forward."
Mark 3:1-3

Don't you just love the simplicity in Jesus' words to the man with the withered hand? All He said was "step forward." I bet it took a lot of guts for this man to stand up and step forward right in front of all those Pharisees and naysayers.

This man wanted to be restored so badly, though, he didn't care what anybody else thought; he knew he was in the presence of God and he wanted to be healed.

And so it is in your life. Maybe you don't have a withered hand, but maybe you have a withered heart. Or a withered checkbook. Or a withered marriage.

Whatever it is in your life that's been withered, Jesus is simply asking you to stand up and step forward. Bring all of those pressures and problems to Him.

Forget the critics and the naysayers, and any past failures that the enemy keeps in the forefront of your mind. Just step forward and let Him do the work in your life.

"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." (Matthew 11:28-30).
