So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
— Romans 10:17 (KJV)
In this famous account of the 4 friends who brought the paralytic to see the Lord Jesus, we see faith - to overcome all hindrances, that trusts in Jesus’ power. We are taught to prioritise the spiritual over the physical, even as the Son of man has the authority to forgive sins, evidenced by His healing of the paralytic. Do we seek the Lord Jesus for daily cleansing, forgiveness, renewal and communion? Draw close to Him, and find true spiritual rest.
