    Do You Want to Be Healed Sermon

    Are you waiting on a change in your circumstances, or are you ready for a change in your life? In this powerful message, we unpack the familiar story of the paralyzed man at the Pool of Bethesda (John 5). For 38 years, this man sat by the water, trapped in a cycle of disappointment, excuses, and a victim mentality. When Jesus asks him a simple yes-or-no question—“Do you want to be made well?”—the man responds not with faith, but with a list of reasons why he can't make it. It’s time to stop waiting on the water. Too many of us are asking God to fix our symptoms while we fight to protect the very systems causing our hurt. We rely on our past trauma, our excuses, and our labels as a "cheat code" to avoid personal accountability, turning our reasons into our permanent residence. But Jesus didn’t come to validate your excuses; He came to transform your identity. When He says, "Rise, take up your bed, and walk," He is commanding you to leave your past behind, carry away the things you used to rely on, and step into a completely new lifestyle. Healed people don’t stay in broken places. Watch this message and discover how to stop waiting on a method, drop the excuses, and encounter the Master. Key Scripture: John 5:1–15 Key Takeaways: The danger of letting your reasons become your residence. Why we settle for treating symptoms instead of changing the system. Why Jesus commands us to pick up our "mat" so we have nothing to go back to. Shifting from speaking only in facts to walking by faith. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
