When they Couldn't Find A way

Send us a text

In this episode, we explore the powerful story from the Gospel of Mark, where a group of determined friends refuses to be stopped by obstacles when bringing their paralyzed friend to Jesus. In Luke 5:17-26, the Bible tells us, "And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four. And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay. When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee."

What can we learn from these friends' persistence and Jesus' response? In a world full of challenges, when it seems like there's no way, we look at how faith—whether it's our own or that of others—can create breakthroughs and desire miracles we seek. We also reflect on Jesus' words: "Son, thy sins be forgiven thee," examining the deeper spiritual implications of healing, forgiveness, and faith.

Join us as we dive into the message behind this incredible story of faith and perseverance, and discover how God can make a way when there seems to be no way.

Bible Verses:

• Luke 5:17-26 - "17. Now it happened on a certain day, as He was teaching, that there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, who had come out of every town of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present [c]to heal them. 18Then behold, men brought on a bed a man who was paralyzed, whom they sought to bring in and lay before Him. 19And when they could not find how they might bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the housetop and let him down with his bed through the tiling into the midst before Jesus.
  20When He saw their faith, He said to him, “Man, your sins are forgiven you.”
  21And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, “Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”
  22But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, He answered and said to them, “Why are you reasoning in your hearts? 23Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise up and walk’? 24But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”—He said to the man who was paralyzed, “I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.”
  25Immediately he rose up before them, took up what he had been lying on, and departed to his own house, glorifying God. 26And they were all amazed, and they glorified God and were filled with fear, saying, “We have seen strange things today!”
