Encounter #35:
“All Things Are Possible”
Read: Mark 9:14-29

 The disciples, a great multitude and the scribes were all together. The scribes were questioning the disciples. Jesus shows up and the people are greatly amazed and astonished. When people begin to question the ways of God, expect Jesus to show up. Jesus to the rescue! Jesus asked the scribes what they were questioning. They didn't answer. They knew Jesus would have corrected them again.

  A father brings his only son to Jesus to deliver him. The son couldn't talk nor could he hear. The father said the spirit tormenting his son tears him, dashes him to the ground, seizes him, and the boy foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth and becomes emaciated. The disciples couldn't help him. Jesus said it was a faithless and unbelieving generation. He rebuked them. The boy comes to Jesus but the spirit throws him into convulsions. Jesus asks the father how long this has been going on. The father said since he was a child. The boy also gets thrown into the water and fire. It's a suicidal spirit also. The father tells Jesus that if He can do anything, then have compassion of them. Jesus says “If you can believe, all things are possible...” The father said, “I believe, help my unbelief.” Jesus then cast out the foul, unclean, deaf and dumb spirit. The boy collapsed. Jesus picked him up. He was delivered. Prayer and fasting are the answer.

  The devil knows when his time is short. He tries everything to prevent souls from coming to Jesus. But Jesus has compassion and brings deliverance. God rewards even weak faith when He sees that there is a desire for your faith to increase. All things are possible. Only believe.

Prayer: “Father God, even though my faith may be weak at times, I still trust in you. Help my unbelief. In Jesus' Name. Amen.”

Application: Encourage someone to continue to trust the Lord even though their faith may be weak. With God all things are possible when you believe.

Encounter Jesus: Call out to Jesus and ask Him to have compassion on you and those you are praying for.  Pray and fast. Jesus will step in. Receive His presence, power and anointing into you life. Believe Him for the impossible and prepare to be astonished!

 Awake or Woke? Gen. 2:18-25 Rom. 13:11-14 Rev. 19:5-10 1 Tim. 4:3 The Bible teaches that Homosexuality is sin. It is unnatural. Ungodly. An abomination to God. Marriage is between a biological male and a biological female only. Same-sex marriages are a sin. There are only 2 genders: Male and female. Abortion is murder. All lives matter to God. Awake to the Truth. Don't be a part of the Woke agenda. Jesus is the only way to heave, Heaven is real. Hell is hot. The Bible is God's only Word. Awake to God's Word. Don't be Woke.....

Good and Evil:  Gen. 2:8-17; 3:1-7,22-24. Adam was told not to eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. His wife, Eve and himself ate from it and knew what evil was and were removed from the Garden of Eden. Ever since then,  people are searching for  their "Paradise." They are looking for a "Utopia," a "Paradise,", a "Promised Land," a "Nirvana", without God. They have their own views, religions, and theories on God , sin, Satan, Jesus,  and self.... They delve into cults (Jehovah Witnesses, Mormons, Christian Science, Scientology, Hinduism, Buddhism, Mindfulness, Yoga, Meditation, New Age, Occult, etc....). Whenever someone rejects, or is ignorant of the God of the Bible and His Son, Jesus the Messiah, they will try many "paths". But there aremany ways which seem right to people, but they are the ways of death (Pr. 14:12). There is only One Way to God and that is by His Son, Jesus (John 14:6; Acts 4:12).Becaus...

Encounter #12 : God's Family (the Church) Matters Read: Mark: 3:31-35 Jesus' mother and His brothers were outside the house asking to see Him. Jesus had half-brothers and sisters (see Matthew 13:55,56). They didn't believe that Jesus was Messiah and Savior until after His resurrection ( John 7:5). Then, on the Day of Pentecost they were in the Upper Room waiting for the Promise of the Father, the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:4). Jesus asked the multitudes around Him if they knew who were His mother and brothers. He said those who do God's will are part of His family. Believers in Jesus do the will of God from their hearts (Eph. 6:6). Jesus was not disrespectful to His mother Mary, nor to His family. He knew His mother's care, love and devotion. Flesh and blood are important. But sometimes spiritual relationships are more closer. God loves family. The first family was Adam and Eve. Jesus was born into a family through a virgin called Mary. All who ar...
