Mark 2:4 NKJV

And when they could not come near Him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where He was. So when they had broken through, they let down the bed on which the paralytic was lying.

Mark 2:4 NKJV

We praise the Lord for the friends of this paralytic man. These friends will not take no for an answer. When there is no way to get in, they make a way to get in.

They are so confident in doing so because they had such confidence in Jesus Christ the Healer. There is nothing that can stop these friends because they knew that their paralytic friend was going to walk again and enjoy life together.

The truth is that many have been trapped by the enemy and are heading down to eternal condemnation.

When we see what these paralytic man's friends did for him, it raises a question: what am I doing for my friends who do not know Jesus?

This is not to bring condemnation but conviction for the lost to have the chance to receive Christ. Our busyness in life and our responsibilities to our family can sometimes be overwhelming.

But we must keep stirring our hearts to reach the lost because, in the end of everything, it is about life being saved.

We will be persecuted, challenged, and even accused. But it should not stop us from sharing the gospel of Christ.

These guys did not stop when the entrance was blocked. When the heart is right, the new way will be revealed. This is what these four friends found and brought the paralytic right in front of Jesus.

We too have the privilege to bring people right in front of Jesus through the message of the gospel so that their lives will be saved.

Let us pray for souls to be saved, souls to come back to Christ, and keep sharing the love of Jesus and His life to all mankind.

Blessings,

Ps Ambrose
