Shoo - Go Away..... | Dr Daniel Kong

You're listening to a message to go from axt church. We hope this message

will light up your team. Mark Chapter five still start off in verse twenty

one. Okay some some of you may know this story, but let's just

read together. Okay. So the title of this story is a girl restored

to life and a woman healed. Okay. So now, when Jesus crossed

a twenty one. Now, when Jesus cross has crossed over by boat to

the other side, a great multitude gathered to him. He was by the

sea. Some also believe he's a late love, but it doesn't matter,

okay. And behold one of the rulers of the synagogue, Gyrus by name,

the pastor of that time, because he's part of the synagogue. And

when he saw him, he fell as at his feet. He begged earnestly,

saying, my little daughter lies at the point of death. Okay,

So just something the highlight of death. Not dead yet dying, Okay,

not dead yet Okay, present tense, Come lay your hands on her,

and she may be healed, and she will live. She will live.

So when Jesus went with him, a great multitude followed him and thronged him.

Okay. So this typical Jesus line, or he's a superstar rock star,

everybody would surround him and try to get his attention. Now, a

certain woman had a flow of blood or in other words, she was bleeding

okay for twelve years. That's a very long time to continuously bleed okay,

and has suffered many things from sorry, has suffered many things from many physicians.

She had spent all that she had and was no better, and rather

it grew worse. Okay. So this is a person who's been having this

problem for quite some time and also have seen medically, have seen a lot

of her physicians and tried to get it fixed. But she can't okay,

or she wasn't fixed for twelve years. When she had heard Jesus, she

came behind him in the crowd, touched his garment and for for she said,

if only I may touch his clothes, I shall be made well.

Okay, And immediately the fountain of her blood dried up, and she was

she felt in a body, and she was healed from the affliction. Someone

translation used the word suffering, and Jesus, immediately, knowing that the power

has gone out of him, turned around in the crowd and said, who

touched my clothes? Who touched me? Okay, everybody's touching him led anyway.

But but his disciples said, you see the multiples multitude rather trying you,

and you say, who touched me with puzzola? And he looked around

and said, this woman has done it. But the woman, fearing and

trembling, knowing that what has happened, came and fell down before him and

told him the whole truth. And he said to her daughter, your faith

has made you well. Go in peace, be healed of your affliction.

While he was speaking, some came from the ruler of the synagogues house,

who said, your daughter is dead. So from the present tense, just

now when the daughter is dying. Now we fast forward after this whole encounter.

The daughter is alreadyd Why troubled the teacher any further? Okay, I

hope you can understand the scenario there as soon as you just heard. The

word has spoken. And in some versions they say, ignoring that that that

what is spoken. Now he said to the ruler of the synagogue, do

not be afraid, only believe. Don't be afraid, only belief. Oh,

that's like an ex chech plug over there helping people believe her anyway,

and we and he permitted no one to follow him except Peter James, John,

the brother of James. Then he came to the house of the ruler

of the synagogue, saw an uproar, and then he wept and wail.

So everybody was crying because of you know what happened. When he came in.

He said to them, why make this commotion and weep? The child

is not dead but sleeping. And they ridiculed him. But when he had

put them all outside, okay, he took the father and the mother of

the child and those who were with him, and said where the child was

lying. Then he took the child by hand and said, Talita to me,

okay, who translated to little girl. I say to you, arise,

star wars movement. Okay, if you get it, you get it.

Don't get it in your mind. Immediately the girl arose and walked for

twelve sorry, for she was twelve years of age. And when they overcome

with great amazement, and they will come greatly siss. Sorry. But he

commanded them strictly that no one should know it, and said something should be

given to her to eat or in other words, just don't stand there,

go and get her a big mac because she's really hungry because she's been sleeping

overy some time. All right, So hopefully you get the context of this.

I know it's a lot of scripture and its need to run through everything

and then hopefully we'll come back to the parts of the scripture. But for

those of you who have come to the Sunday service and afternoon service, I

always struggle with putting up titles, and I'm hopeless at putting up titles.

So this is the best I can come up with. In terms of title,

I'd say shoot, go away, get out, or whatever, because

that is the title that I've chosen. And you'll make sense after I've explained

a little bit, and I hope you can bear with me. But you

know, the every time you read this story, the first thing that comes

to mind is the story of the faith, you know, and it's always

a story about, you know, a girl rising up. That's the testimony,

that's the miracle that has happened there. But sometimes we forget that there's

other aspects of it. And hopefully today, after today's message, you will

get some of the contexts about what needs to be driven out what needs to

be shoot and what needs to be cast out? Okay, because I'm going

to focus here on versus forty, which says again they really could him.

I've highlighted the thing up on the screen. But when he had put them

all outside, then only something happened after that, so he actually had to

stop what he was doing, take them all outside. All those who are

these people who are all they were talking about? What do you think?

Who are the all the people that laughed at them? The people that ridicule

him, okay, the people that think that a it's not going to work

because why they see the death, they see the end game. They don't

see any hope in it anymore. And now again, these can be your

environment. It could be the people that surround you, or it could even

be yourself. Hopefully not. But you know, these are people that doubt,

people that have unbelieved, people that may I wouldn't even used to faithless.

But you know how some people they always argument to argue certain things.

They may come up come up more as a less positive person in the conversation

every time glass half full kind of a person. You know, people like

that, And these are the same people talking about all right, and I

hope that we do not have many at least believers they are in this context.

Okay, because why Jesus as sit in this in this text that if

there are people like that, first thing he has to do is has to

physically removed you or remove people, or fix the environment first before that miracle

can happen. Okay, So this is the short version of the entire message.

Really, Okay, if you want to go those of you who who

love watching YouTube, you watch the first few minutes and you get the context.

You just fast on the end, you get the thing, and then

you're done. Right, you can go home earlier. Okay, but that's

the whole thing. But I think I think the focus is really uh,

you know, you got to put it all outside. You got to not

let it affect you, because why if you let it affect you, or

if you let some of these things affect you, you don't cast it out,

the miracle will not happen. Okay, all right, the miracle will

not happen. Now, I'm not going to mess with you or you know,

you're you're you're understanding your theology and all that kind of thing. Uh,

you know, we did sing earlier, what would be sing, you

know your goodness is running after me, right, and you know you're a

good, good God. And our God is good all the time, but

sometimes he needed to do the things that he needed to. Like in this

story, he needed to play the the bouncer, the gangster. Right,

so he is good, but sometimes he needed to be that person as well

to make things work. Okay, So don't always think that our God is

a teddy bear kind of a god. You know, it's all about good

things, but yeah, when he needs to, he needs to do what

it is because the power of this story really is not just on the miracle

itself, but really about what needs to happen to allow that miracle to happen.

Okay, so everybody say, shoe go away, go away, all

right, that's the quick summary synopsis. But when you read this story,

the first thing that you think about really is like, what is the context

of these two characters that we've just studied, What is the similarities? Why

are you even put together right in the same few lines. Have you even

thought about that? It's actually very different, right the story, but somehow

they're same same. That makes melain to you why they're same? Same.

Okay, Now we are all like this. We're all connected somewhat, but

sometimes we do not realize what is the connection. You know, we have

different challenges whatever these challenges, but we have different goals in life, we

have different pathways in life. But somehow there is some connection or we're all

intertwined together. There's our lives, but we may not fully see it.

And this story is like this in the same context or in the same period

and era. The two things happen together, but they do not see the

similarity right and they just start. You know, whatever I'm going through is

more urgent, and whatever you're going through is probably i don't know, less

urgent or whatever. But aren't we all like that. You know, you

do not understand what's why I'm going through right now. And the point I'm

trying to make here is not to belittle the things that we are all going

through, but rather sometimes you also have to be sensitive that there is an

opportunity for us to to to to even support a fellow brother and sister.

But sometimes if you're too caught up with your own things that you're going through,

you may actually miss what God has placed in front of you. And

the miracle will again will not even happened. Okay, so just something to

to to quickly say. And I believe in the text to they Mark began

talking like this because there's actually something very connected. And uh, if you,

if you, if you look at it on the surface of us,

it's not quite connected, but they are actually connected. Now, Mark begins

by talking about this this character here, right, Gyrus, okay, the

synagogue leader, and he starts talking about then later move on to the woman

and the issue of the blood okay, and then the two are connected,

but somehow not. Now let's look at the differences first. Okay. Firstly,

Gyrus is a man. The woman is not man lah okay, the

opposite gender, right, And in the text you know of his name,

but you do not know the day's name. Every wonder why he's given a

name, you know, but no, it wasn't given. Right. One

is the ruler in the Jewish snagogue, and we probably think that he's probably

a bit more well to do, a bit affluent, you know. And

the other lady, you know, even if she had money, she's probably

broke by now because you know, she spent a lot of her resources to

try to get the conditions fixed. Okay, so very very different. Okay,

and uh, you know some some may think that they are complete opposite

BIBLESO gone. You know, to look at some some styis papers written about

the similarities. I put up one of these things here. Probably can't see

it, but and somebody actually wrote a paper, a technical paper to try

to look at the similarities, and they actually found lot of similarities. You

want to look it up if you're interested, go and do it your own

research. But hey, let's talk about the similarities. They're deeply connected,

but not quite on the surface. But and how are they connected? Now?

Life, as we call it, sometimes what I say, levels the

playing field a little bit. Right. Do you remember the time that eventual

COVID or maybe still going through COVID now, but remember the time everybody felt

the same same, right? Who I relate to you? I understand what

you're going through, because why we're all put in that similar scenario. Okay,

And this is what I'm trying to say. Life has a way of

leveling up the playing field a little bit. Things are different. One is

a bit richer and one is a bit poorer, just like COVID. Right

the time when you cannot can COVID, but you are. The laws of

the LEMP allows or prevents you do certain things. And it goes through every

aspects or every level of people. Okay, regardless of whether you are of

this status or this status, you're subjected to the same rules. Okay.

And money can't fix it, your friends can't fix it. Whatever it is,

it's the same thing I would there even say, right, sometimes even

people the unbelievers, would feel that they need God at certain times. And

this is what I mean by sometimes God allows things to happen the way it

happened to level the playing field a little bit and to make sure that people

are a little bit more connected in that sense. Okay, And let's look

at this story. Okay, nothing common like I said, but they're in

the same position. Okay, they are both desperate. Commonality, they're both

desperate. And in the Bible, right, they say that they're to push

people out of the way, regardless of whether it was Gyrus or whether it

was the woman, they have to make way, push out a way to

reach the same person. Okay, ever thought about that? And are we

n feel like that? You know, when we are not desperate? It's

okay, I don't need to pray for I don't need to prayer. I

didn't lift my hand so high, huh during worship and all that. I

mean again, not knocking. But sometimes when you're desperate, you do desperate

things, right, And these people, like I said, the commonality here

is that they are both desperate at the same time. And that's I think

the reason why they are put together in the same you know texts. Okay,

they are both inconvenience. They are both pushing things aside to get to

God, and they're read desperate for God. And you don't really care too

much about how people feel, what you're going through, or what things everything

just false, false away of texts, all the perception, people's perception.

You don't really care, like I said, when you need to when you're

desperate, okay. And and I think you've heard many have preached this before

COVID happened, or maybe God allowed COVID to happen to address the whole thing

about complacency, right, People are very complacent in the things they do all

the while, and they don't realize that actually there's more to life than just

your lives and my life. There's actually more things that are more important.

And that's what I believe to an extent, God allowed things to happen the

way it happened to ensure that complacency doesn't creep in. Okay, and this

is exactly what has happened. The desperation brought the two together. They both

brought Gyrus and the unnamed woman to Jesus's feet at the same time. Okay,

and uh, let's twelve into a bit of details if you don't mind.

Okay, now look at look at Gyrus. Okay, he got to

Jesus first. He was the first in line. You know, if you

ever get a cue, very popular person, coplatic. No, no,

no, let's not get it. Let's not get that. He was the

first to get a ticket. In fact, Jesus actually acknowledged and he said,

I'm coming right, I'm coming on the way. In that process of

going to that place, Uh, this person jumpcula a little bit, okay,

and then uh, he was like, you know, my daughter is

dying. I'm desperate. How can you why should you stop? You know,

I mean it's like you, like pasted Alwin, I think my child

needs attention. Come to the house. And this was exactly what's happened.

Okay, I'm not saying that he's Jesus, but it's that same context,

right, the pastor of the house, past of the time, the time

was Jesus. He needed help, and then he just called the past the

house and in the process, if past the awin goes somewhere else, it's

might thing not important now anymore. It is death, dying bited, you

know, you know, so that's what's happening. I think that's what's happening.

I'm first, Okay, I'm first. Now let's look at someone of

the similarities. And this is quite interesting because the girl that's dying is twelve

years old. As we read. The woman has gone through how long twelve

years? So if you look at this is a TVB I know, HBO

kind of a thing, right. I don't know whether you even watch these

guys Chinese shows anymore, but it will be like a scene in the hospital

right where the lady sorry, the parents were like, oh, you know,

I've got the birth of a new child, a new daughter, happily

smiling, and in the background a bit blurred, the lady come out like

I've got this problem, same condition. They don't know each other, right,

and and and after that becomes an entire series and drama, you know.

But it's always like this, right, Like I said, sometimes we

are just so focused on the things that we're going through we forget that there's

actually some commonality with your neighbor, they say, next to whether it's at

work, whether it's in church, anywhere, and we often fail to see

that because we are too focused on ourselves. And if the producers can put

a title to it, like I said that, it's raat drama and Elvin,

you know what I'm saying, right, I think it's interesting as a

story, But this is exactly the story that we're saying here. So the

scene here really is that they were actually very similar, very very similar.

Okay, but they were all they're They're preoccupied with their own promises, just

like how Gyrus have received a promise that Jesus is coming. I'm preoccupied my

promise. I forget that there's some other things that I needed to attention to.

So what I'm trying to say here is also that sometimes you can walk

away from some miracles, even though it may not be completely your miracle is

somebody else's miracle, just because you are so focused on what God has promised

you. Okay. And this is where I think we need to be a

bit more careful because sometimes, really it is not just in miracles we always

say, right, we always rejoice with others as well. Right, we

cannot be too focused on what we what God has placed only on our plates.

Because in Romans Child, whys say you really have to rejoice with those

that rejoice, and weep with those that weep. Okay. So oh,

another commonality. It's also Romans twelve child. No, anyway, let's not

get that. But yeah, they're joined together by twelve. Right, they're

joined together by twelve. Why because twelve, babically I put up another slide,

is quite significant. And there's a lot of things about TRAELA I'm not

gonna I'm gonna reach some of the key ones, okay, twelve commandments,

Okay. And I think we also know that there twelve tribes, you know,

twelve sons, and of course represent by the twelve tribes. Even Ishmael

had twelve princess. Okay, think about it, twelve thousand from each tribe

Israel. Okay, we'll receive salvation. So twelve, needless to say,

is a big number for God. Okay, sorry, Chield disciples as well.

I'm coming to that. Yeah. So so, yeah, CHELFH is

very important because Old Testament CHELFH is important. The New Testament also, CHELFH

is important. Okay, Chelve disciples. Like Elvin said, so even when

Jesus started teaching, he was actually twelve. I I sometimes it mazes me

of this number twelve because my son is turning twelve in a few days time.

A lot of expectation, that's tell anyway. Anyway, twelve, yeah,

twelve, and this is Jesus just a kid who's in uh standard sixer

upper primary, upper Primary, going to go and talk to those that older,

older people are and people with much power and wisdom. Okay, that's

that's it, because you know why twelve actually signifies, particularly signifies authority and

power of God. Okay, or simply putting it, uh, the nutsheller

is Heaven rules you all. That's what it signifies. Twelve. Okay,

twelve, and this is a special number here. Now do you know what

Jesus actually saying here? Nothing you're facing right, nothing ever facing right Jesus

can't handle is what we're trying to say here. Because people always look at

this specish I doways, think about all the faith element. Now faith is

important, don't get me wrong, but there's also another importance about understanding the

authority that is accompanied with that faith. Otherwise their favor is a bit half

big. Law cannot really go too far, LA cannot restretch it law or

there is some prerequist that it's not met before that faith can be fully exercised.

And we all know this, right. The difference between the two,

really the two the two characters is one understands the authority a bit more or

recognizes the authority a bit more than the other person. Okay, why do

I say that? You think about it? The woman right, sorry gyrus

right, was trying to get all the protocol rights appointment sent pastorin the calendar

and White, I need him here at this time. Can you come past

eleven? Agreed? Okay, And it's coming. The other person. I'm

so desperate, law, I really need to and and and and yeah,

he understand that she understood authority because all I have to do is just touch

and that's it. I do need to do a formal appointment. And like

I said, this is the awareness of the authority. That's different over here,

and again we're not reducing faith the currency of faith. We all say

faith is important, right, but faith is almost like I always liken it

to like an anchor. Right, it's important, right, But if you

ever throw an anchor off the boarder and forgot the tier or have a tandem

that connects it to your boat, right, one thing is that even though

faith or the anchor is very good, you sort of lose the anchors.

And what I'm trying to say is that the court, the tandem that you

actually keep that faith effective is actually understanding or recognizing the authority of God to

accompany that faith, so they don't throw that thing off and cannot activate that.

Essentially, because we also know a lot of passages, right, faith

or you need is a little bit of faith, must see it kind of

a quantity, right, But authority is how sometimes we've sort of missed the

mark in a little bit. So what I'm trying to say here is,

or rather what this passage is trying to tell us, is that connect your

faith with His authority, all right, because why if you do that,

that little bit that muster seat can be taking up a whole new level altogether.

Okay, So let's just maximize it, LA, right, maximize it

okay? And uh yeah, you know sometimes you look at it you're like,

oh, you know, this guy's not receiving his break. True.

Maybe the guy in got no faith. Maybe the faith is there, but

just not recognizing fully the authority. Okay, And we need to do this

otherwise your faith will struggle. I ever thought about it. When you're going

through challenges, you'd be like, hey, am I not faithful? Am

I my faith issue? No? Maybe it's not recognizing the authority I bakry

so far. So don't limit your faith by not understanding the authority, because

if you really believe he's the ultimate authority, right, just like in this

story, even though the worst has happened, there is still you know a

story after that, Lah is a heavy ending after that, LA. Correct.

Yeah, So it's never about the size of your faith. Really,

it's really about you're understanding the authority of God. Okay. Now you may

ask, what is what actually FOSSi scriptures? Can you actually talk about this

sort of context? You know, you think about it in the in the

boat, remember the boat where Jesus was sleeping slum you know, probably snoring

as well. What happened to the disciple of the rest They were in the

boat, they were panicking because of the storm is coming right. Um,

they probably maybe have a bit of faith, but probably do not recognize certain

things. You know, God, after he was Jesus, rather he was

awoken, and then he's like, you know, calm down, chill peace,

and then everything was calm because why he understood the authority God, that

is as in Jesus, he just said a word and then everything was calm.

And this is what I'm trying to say. If you understand who's in

control that heaven rules, you will not panic even though you're going through different

calamities. Okay, are we Okay? Yeah, just like how they shouldn't

be anxious because why Jesus is actually in the boat, he is got a

direct line with God or even he is God or Solah. So what I'm

trying to say is that really we need to start practicing this, not just

practice faith, but practice trusting the authority of God in the picture. And

this thing would really change things around. Okay, Okay, So instead of

saying in over till the fact, ladies, things, you can say this

in over till Jesus says Sola, Okay, all right, no matter what's

going on, always connect your faith with his authority, just like how I

think I shared the last time was here. Even in the pandemic, we

always we thought that nothing is in control, but actually Jesus still in control.

The authority is still there, she said. Sometimes be like I said,

too busy with the things that's happening around us that we forget that and

this what's exactly is happening here. Now back to Gyrus and the woman,

because I've only got a few minutes left, Okay, Like I said,

different levels of awareness of authorities, the difference over here. Okay. And

uh, you see, he said, Jesus, come to me, come

to me. My daughter is dying. Yeah, my daughter is dying.

Come to me, come to me. And then of course Jesus got a

bit uh, you know, taken taken away from that, that that story

a little bit uh and uh. And and what I'm trying to say here

is that, um, you need to understand that it ain't over till he

says it's over. And then, Um, one of the most important things

is that we need if we don't believe in someone actually having the ultimate authority.

Right, Sometimes the way we navigate true life or the way we do

things can sometimes be a little bit different. Okay. Like I said,

we are not knocking how people respond. But sometimes it is because not the

faith portion, but the authority portion. Okay, because you are serving a

God who is ultimately in control. Right, he is the word. Right,

So whenever you feel something, don't think about the faith portion, but

think about not just the faith portion. Of course you have to address that,

but also think about the authority. I don't know about you, guys,

but sometimes whenever something goes wrong, I'm a very big customer service kind

of a person. I mean, I enjoy good customer service, okay,

and ever my sticks come out a bit wrong, I will go back to

the person. And then the person I can't do anything about it, I

will say something very Unchristian to say, can I speak to your supervisor,

your manager right now? Why why do people do that? Why do people

do that? You think it's because they recognized the authority right the person they

can actually do something about it. Okay, I'll tell you a quick story.

We were in China pre pandemic, me myself and my wife. She

was there for business. I was just taking along just for fun. And

then she was looking for a place and a place to host an event.

Okay, and we had a few days covered and then one of the places,

the hotels or changed things around, and then we didn't have a place

to stay in short for one or two days. And then somebody found out

what the mission of that trip was all about gave us a very um I

think one of the sweets la because they wanted to impression. Of course,

I'm not saying that. I'm not talking about the whole fay favor. I'm

not going to live in the streets kind of a story, but really talking

about the authority that the person who knows it could give that because the person

was in some level of authority, and that's why we were given from from

living in the streets. We were in the suite overnight. Okay. Uh,

no story for another day, but but yeah, um even even yesterday

actually fresh fresh story okay, yesterday, Uh, I actually booked a ticket,

uh the domestic flight between Perth and Melbourne. I'll be there next month.

So what happened was actually I was driving, my wife was there.

I asked to help me book the ticket while we're on the road, everything

went true. Uh. But then at the end, as Arab pitched,

payment wasn't successful. Necessarily find nothing wrong with that, right okay? After

that, later when we stopped, I actually booked again, uh, you

know, another another thing. And then at the end of the night I

realized I received two emails that booked the thing twice, two payments being done.

Okay, And then I thought to myself, oh man, how am

I going to do this? And all those tickets A obviously the no refundable

or those clauses. Lah. So I talked to myself, Koyala, you

know, everything is a U D as well, so it's a bit more

triple the pain. But you know, I thought, okay, let's just

do something about it. I just call up. In fact, actually typed

in because chat they got chat chatting function these days. So I wrote in

chat long story shot, spend about fifteen all minutes with the person chatting on

the thing to say that what has happened. The person said, okay,

let me talk to my supervisor. And after the suppoiler took over the chat

within three minutes, like you know, because you can see time stammer within

three minutes, the problems resolved, and the ticket that couldn't be refunded,

they basically just refunded the duplicator. Okay, So what I'm trying to say

is that recognize the superior. Talk to your supervisor. Who's a supervisor,

Jesus, right? Why bother talking to the underlinks, right, talk to

the alpha and the weega Okay, talk to the god of the heaven and

earth, all right, talk to the one who was there at the beginning,

and we'll be there at the end. Okay, Because why if you

recognize who is really in control, that God actually has the authority, you

wouldn't be too caught up or too concerned about some of the things that we

are going through. Really, and this exactly we're trying to relate to this.

She touched the garment because she recognizes the authority. And for twelve years

she may have been talking to mid level managers trying to fix a problem medical

managers, okay, if I want to use that context. Right, But

when she knew that the chief person or the bosses in town, right,

she went to the person directly. That's what I call I want to talk

to your manager kind of a moment over there because she recognizes the authority that

goes to it. And of course partnering, partnering with a faith the miracle

actually happened. Okay, So demand an encounter or rather a connection with your

manager. Okay, now sight track a little bit. Sometimes we see this

as disruptors. We see this as interrupters. We see this as a why

is the miracle gyruses miracle or not happening? Why is it being put on

whole? Right? But sometimes interruptions is also an invitation for a miracle.

It's just whether you're want to see the miracle or not. Right, If

you're so caught up, like I said, with what's happening your own scenario,

you may not even see the miracle that's happening, or that God is

actually having a miracle moment with this other person. Okay. And sometimes,

like I said, even though it's urgent, you need to see that there

is always a miracle that can happen. And of course what I meant by

this is that you know, I'm sure when Gyrus was going through that whole

scene, he was very very anxious. Think about this. If you are

walking along with Pastor Elvin going to the house and past going stopped by the

mama to talk to somebody. He was like, what's happening, don't understand

urgent, and he's probably like, you know, pushing the crowd, pushing

the air. He's gone, gone, like you know, ten ten paces

away, and it's like, where is he? Where is Jesus In the

context, there's to go back again, go back to him through the sea,

and then then he finds Jesus over there. Jesus is like chilling,

who touched me? Kind of a moment, mean, who touched you?

Everybody touched you? And not only that. Then after after a long while,

only then the person she came and said it was me, right,

And then Jesus said, okay, come, come, come, tell me

a story. I mean, I don't be saying things about the opposite gender,

but you know, if there's something, usually you want to get the

the guys to talk, because guys usually very concise with the things that they

say. In Jesus, it's inviting this lady to tell the story. You

know, what do you think is going through dys this mine? Do you

think, hey, hello, don't you get it? My daughter is dying?

You know, my daughter is dying and we are frustrated sometimes, right,

aren't we all because we are waiting for the miracle. Ever watch somebody

get a promotion and then you lose your job. Okay, that's a Gyrus

moment. Okay. Ever seen somebody posts pictures on social media Facebook, I

don't know Facebook, Twitter to talk about the birth of a new child and

you've been trying to have a child for the last twelve years. What do

you feel like? Again? Another Gyris moment. Ever see a miracle happened

in front of you and you've been waiting for that same miracle to happen.

Or see somebody walk down There are a hundred times and you are still there

again not knocking. But it's just sometimes we fail to see the bigger picture.

And I also believe, to sain extent, God allows these miracles to

happen, other people's miracles to also remind us that your miracle is coming.

Just like in this story, were not the happy ending. Gus did receive

his miracle, so it's not all that bad, all right, But at

that moment we may ask God, are you for real? Do you not

understand this? Do you not understand why I'm going? True? How can

you do it for them, not for me? And again I think this

is the thing that just to remind everybody the context today is really we need

to put all these things out shoe. If you are in that space,

cast it out. I needed us to all understand the key thing here is

really whatever that doesn't belong there needs to be cast out, cast out.

I put our last worse over there forty He had put them all outside.

All you know, not some doubts, not some aspects that's preventing that miracle

from happening. Everything has to go before that miracle happens. Maybe some of

us need to tell fear to shoot to get out of our lives. Maybe

the depression needs to go. Maybe past hurts, past disappointments has to be

shoot before that miracles can happen. Anxiety, in patience, anything you know

that prevents even disappointments has to be shoot before this could happen. The miracle

will happen. Why because we need to understand the authority still lies in our

God and only he when the time is right, the miracle can come to

pass. We hope you've been blessed by this message. For more information on
