Sermon Overview Jesus alone has the authority to give life, so trust him.Digging Deeper   Read Luke 8:40-561. The situation with Jairus's daughter went from desperate to (seemingly) hopeless. And yet, because of who Jesus is, the one who has the authority to give life, things were not actually hopeless after all. Has there been a situation(s) in your life where you were tempted to feel that things are hopeless? How did God use that situation in your life? Please share. 2. How would you counsel a follower of Jesus who has confided in you that he or she is feeling hopeless? How might this passage, and what it reveals about Jesus, bring encouragement? What other passages or truths from God's Word might you point them to? 3. What connection does this story have to our celebration of Jesus' resurrection from the dead? 4. This passage calls us to trust Jesus (the only one with authority to give life) to give us life. What might that sort of trust look like for us? What might be some signs that we are not trusting Jesus as we ought?  5. In what sense do those who trust in Christ have eternal life already (see John 3:36 & 17:3)? What does this mean? What does that look like? 6. How should the reality of a future resurrection life (in heaven) affect how we live now? To what extent would you say your hope of heaven is affecting the way you live on a regular basis? How might we (help one another) grow in this? 7. In 1 Corinthians 15:17-19 we read, “And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied.” What is at stake for us in Christ's resurrection from the dead? Practically speaking, what might it look like for us to live in light of it? 8. For those of us in Christ, Jesus has brought us life. He wants to bring that life to others, and he wants to use us (his people) to make that happen. Who in your life does not yet know the life that Jesus offers? How might you share this story with them, and/or point them to Christ's power to save and to give (eternal) life? Prayer

Jason and Roger continue a four-part April series on The Four Resurrections in the Gospels. In this third episode, the resurrection of Lazarus. PREVIOUSLY IN THIS SERIES: The Four Resurrections in the Gospels (1): Jairus' Daughter The Four Resurrections in the Gospels (2): The Only Son of a Widow

Thursday, 17 April 2025   While He spoke these things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshiped Him, saying, “My daughter has just died, but come and lay Your hand on her and she will live.” Matthew 9:18   “He, speaking these to them, you behold! A ruler, having come, he kneeled to Him, saying that, ‘My daughter now, she died. But having come, You upon-set Your hand upon her, and she will live'” (CG).   In the previous verse, Jesus noted that they don't put new wine into old wineskins. Rather, they put new wine into new skins. It is during this conversation that Matthew next says, “He, speaking these to them, you behold!”   What transpires at this time is a part of what is leading up to John the Baptist's question to Jesus, which will be seen in Chapter 11. John's disciples are there asking a question of Jesus. As such, it can be assumed that they will follow Jesus as He responds to the request that will now be made. Understanding this, it next says, “A ruler, having come, he kneeled to Him.”   The man's position is a new noun, archon. It is derived from the verb archó to rule. Hence, it refers to a ruler of some sort. In this case, he is a ruler of the synagogue named Jairus, as noted in Mark 5. Whether this means he was the chief ruler or one of the officials there isn't stated, but he held a ruling position in the synagogue.   His kneeling before Jesus is a mark of respect and humility. He is in a greater position within the society, and yet, he has humbled himself before Jesus. It demonstrates that something has informed him that Jesus is actually in a greater position in reality. Because of this, it next says he was “saying that, ‘My daughter now, she died.'”   Here the thugatér is introduced. It is a primary word signifying a female child. It can be used figuratively of the feminine position in general, such as “daughters of Jerusalem,” or “daughter of Zion.” In such a case, it is a Hebraism indicating belonging to a society, city, household, etc.   As for Jairus' daughter, death is something common to all people. When a person dies, it is evident that it has happened. There are times when someone may still be alive, having been misdiagnosed for one reason or another, but that is an extremely rare occasion.   In other words, it is certain that the child has died. People who attempt to diminish the words of this account 1) weren't there, 2) have to dismiss the words of those who would know, and thus, 3) make a claim based on biases that are not supported by the text.   We have the words that describe the situation and are asked to accept them as true and reliable. Understanding this, Jairus continues to speak, saying, “But having come, You upon-set Your hand upon her, and she will live.”   Another new word is seen here, epitithémi. It is derived from epi, upon, and tithémi, to set, lay, appoint, etc. In this case, it means to lay upon. Jairus believes that Jesus has this ability, and he is requesting that He come with him to have her life restored to her.   We can question what the basis of his faith in Jesus' abilities is. In other words, what is it that would make this person think Jesus could do this? The answer is probably because of events that previously took place there in Capernaum. In Chapter 8, the centurion pleaded with Jesus to come and heal his servant. As noted, from the parallel account in Luke, this centurion had built the synagogue for them –   “Now when He concluded all His sayings in the hearing of the people, He entered Capernaum. 2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick and ready to die. 3 So when he heard about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to Him, pleading with Him to come and heal his servant. 4 And when they came to Jesus, they begged Him earnestly, saying that the one for whom He should do this was deserving, 5 ‘for he loves our nation, and has built us a synagogue.'” Luke 7:1-5   Therefore, it is likely that he knew of the event and was placing the same trust in Jesus that the centurion had done. He very well may have been one of the elders who was sent to Jesus. Now, his child was dead. There was nowhere else to turn, and so he came to Jesus in the hope that the same power that worked through Him to heal the centurion's servant would be available to restore his daughter to life.   Life application: If the conjecture about Jesus' interaction with the centurion is correct, it is a subtle hint at the direction of the overall narrative as the life and ministry of Jesus unfolds, and which is unfortunately overlooked.   This synagogue ruler is right that Jesus can heal his daughter. It is also of note that he bowed before Jesus and requested Him to come and heal her. But there is a difference in the account with the centurion. Luke 7 continues with –   “Then Jesus went with them. And when He was already not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, ‘Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof. 7 Therefore I did not even think myself worthy to come to You. But say the word, and my servant will be healed. 8 For I also am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to one, “Go,” and he goes; and to another, “Come,” and he comes; and to my servant, “Do this,” and he does it.'” Luke 7:6-8   Even if the ruler of the synagogue has done nothing wrong and his actions are what would normally be expected, the contrast between the Gentile centurion and the Jewish ruler is still markedly noticeable. Instead of coming to Jesus and asking Him to heal his daughter immediately, he instead asked Him to come and place His hands upon her.   This subtle difference demonstrates a great chasm between the faith of the centurion and the synagogue ruler. Even if this is not noticeably highlighted, it follows the pattern set time and again in Scripture. God is looking for faith above all else. At what point will our faith be established?   Will our faith be proven by sight? Do we need a miracle to establish our belief in the capabilities of the Lord? Will our faith be strengthened through a new job or a promotion? Or is our faith strong enough to exist without any such things? The Gentile centurion's faith was without sight. It was without the nearness of his presence to Jesus. It was also with the understanding that Jesus could accomplish His actions by verbal command alone.   Jairus was respectful and hopeful, but it appears the contrast is purposeful. His faith was one that desired to be validated through action rather than trusting that the action was already the sure outcome.   Let us have the faith that says, “Lord, we know you can do all things. Whether You grant our petition or not, we will never allow our faith in You to diminish.” With this, God will certainly be pleased.   Lord God, help us to be people of faith, even without sight or without results in our petitions to You. Help us to remember that what we want is not always what is right according to Your plan. When we do not receive what we have desired, may our faith remain steady and unwavering. Amen.

Caleb Drahosh Jesus is met by Jairus who asks Jesus to come make his dying daughter well. Jesus accompanies Jairus, but on the way, a woman with an issue of blood secretively approaches Jesus and touches His garment, believing that she will be made well. Her disease is immediately healed. Things seen and unseen are subject to Jesus' power. The gift of faith in this woman brings her peace; faith is what joins us to Christ and His saving power.

Daily Dose of Hope April 11, 2025 Day 5 of Week 2   Scripture – Mark 5:21-43   Prayer – Holy and Merciful God, We are so thankful that your mercies are new every morning.  No matter what yesterday held, help us start afresh and anew with you.  Lord, help us set aside our distractions and gather our scattered thoughts so we can fully focus on you and your Word.  Help us sit in these next few moments of silence, remembering that you are God and we are not...In Your Name, Amen.   Welcome to the Daily Dose of Hope, a Deep Dive into the Gospels and Acts. Today, we are finishing up Mark 5.  Remember, yesterday we spoke about Jesus' healing of the man possessed by evil spirits over in Gentile territory.  Now, he is back to the Jewish side of the lake and more healing awaits him.   It starts with Jesus being encountered by Jairus, a synagogue leader, whose daughter is very ill and dying.  He wants Jesus to come to his home and heal her.  I want you to think about this situation.  Jairus had high status in this community.  He was a Jewish leader.  We can surmise that he didn't want to have to go see Jesus, this odd teacher and healer.  Jairus was desperate – he had probably tried all kinds of healers by this point and nothing had worked.  As a parent, he was willing to do anything to save the life of his daughter, even lower himself to ask Jesus for help.   But while they are walking to his home, Jesus has an encounter with someone else, a woman who had been bleeding for twelve years.  It was a massive crowd, with everyone pressing up against him, but she touched the edge of his robe but he felt the power go out of him.    Let's talk briefly about this woman.  Bleeding made this woman unclean according to Jewish law.  Bleeding for twelve years probably had ruined her life.  If she had been married, the husband would have left her by now, meaning she would not have had a way to support herself.  She would have depleted all her resources trying to get better.  Physically, she would have been extremely fatigued and weak.  And finally, this would have alienated her from community.  Being unclean, she could not go to the synagogue and she really wasn't allowed to be in that crowd.  But she is also desperate, so she breaks the rules, desperate to touch Jesus.    Jesus knows who has touched him but he asks out loud anyway, “Who touched me?” She couldn't stay hidden anymore so she comes forward.  I can imagine how terrified she would have been.  And then Jesus says the most amazing thing, “Daughter, your faith has made you well.”  With just a phrase, Jesus healed not only her bleeding but also her soul.  She isn't alienated.  She is worthy.  She is a daughter of the one true king.    I find this such an extraordinary narrative.  Some people have to encounter Jesus and others need to be empowered.  But desperate people come to Jesus and are healed.  Even when something seems too far gone – the daughter who is almost dead or the woman whose life has been practically destroyed by twelve years of bleeding – Jesus can take care of it.  Jesus is a miracle-worker for all of us.  His power and healing are offered to all people in every strata of society.    Is there anything in your life for which you have stopped praying?  Nothing, nobody is too sick, too addicted, too depressed, too angry, too bitter, too lazy, too ___________ (you fill in the blank) to bring to Jesus.  Jesus, the ultimate physician, caregiver, and healer, isn't done with any of us yet.    By the way, he does make it to Jairus' house.  The girl has already died and the people are crying and wailing.  But Jesus goes in anyway.  The girl wakes up.  Even death can't stop Jesus.    Let's close with Psalm 30... I will exalt you, Lord,     for you lifted me out of the depths     and did not let my enemies gloat over me. 2 Lord my God, I called to you for help,    and you healed me. 3 You, Lord, brought me up from the realm of the dead;    you spared me from going down to the pit. 4 Sing the praises of the Lord, you his faithful people;     praise his holy name. 5 For his anger lasts only a moment,    but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may stay for the night,    but rejoicing comes in the morning. 6 When I felt secure, I said,     “I will never be shaken.” 7 Lord, when you favored me,    you made my royal mountain[c] stand firm; but when you hid your face,    I was dismayed. 8 To you, Lord, I called;     to the Lord I cried for mercy: 9 “What is gained if I am silenced,    if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise you?    Will it proclaim your faithfulness? 10 Hear, Lord, and be merciful to me;    Lord, be my help.” 11 You turned my wailing into dancing;     you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, 12 that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent.    Lord my God, I will praise you forever.     Blessings, Pastor Vicki

Seven Resurrections - Jairus's Daughter - Sunday Morning 03-30-25

John 11:3 Phileo is a word that expresses deep friendship, affection, and warmth, love between close companions. 5, 11 They were more than disciples; they were friends. 8 Stone you – 10:31-32 Jesus, undaunted, knew that God would guide and protect him. 9 Look fellows, I am doing God's will. Everything is going to be all right. I am not afraid, nor should you be. You are with me. 14 Sleep – focus your attention on the living and not the dead. 16 Thomas' reaction could be interpreted as confidence or sarcasm and fear. 17 Four days The Widow's Son at Zarephath – Elijah (1 Kings 17:17-24) The Shunammite Woman's Son – Elisha (2 Kings 4:18-37) A Dead Man Who Touched Elisha's Bones – (2 Kings 13:20-21) Jairus' Daughter – Raised by Jesus (Mark 5:35-43; Luke 8:49-56) The Widow's Son at Nain – Raised by Jesus (Luke 7:11-17) Lazarus – Raised by Jesus after four days in the tomb (John 11:1-44) Tabitha (Dorcas) – Raised by Peter (Acts 9:36-42) Boy falling out window – Raised by Paul (Acts 20:7-12) Yes, in the time of Jesus, the custom in Jewish culture was to bury the dead on the day of death, just as it is today. One of the clearest prophetic signs comes from Jonah's experience: “Now the Lord had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.” (Jonah 1:17 KJV) Jesus himself referenced this as a prophecy of his own death and resurrection: “For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.” (Matthew 12:40 KJV)The post Christ Series 1: Lazarus: Forerunner of Christ first appeared on Living Hope.

Episode Title: Are You Listening? Part 2 – Christ’s Desire for Those Who Hear His Word In this powerful continuation of Are You Listening?, we dive into Luke 8:22-56, where Jesus speaks loudly—not just with words, but through miracles. From calming the storm with His voice to setting a man free from demonic oppression, healing a woman’s long-standing affliction, and restoring life to Jairus' daughter, Christ reveals His desire for those who hear Him. Through these miraculous moments, we see that His Word:

Jesus' power over death is on display as he heals Jairus' daughter and brings her back to life. In the midst of urgency and desperation, he shows that his ways are true and his timeline is perfect.

Are you discouraged? If so, don't feel guilty about it, but don't wallow in it either. It's not a fun place to be. I examine some biblical ways to defeat discouragement. Encourage others One way to cure your own discouragement is to encourage others. Proverbs 11:25 says, ...he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed. Instead of looking for someone to pick you up, look around and see who you can encourage. Thank goodness we can be encouragers even when we feel discouraged. And as we become encouragers to others, our own discouragement is lessened. Get to work One good cure for discouragement is simply to get to work. Often when we're discouraged, we're unmotivated, so we do nothing. Then because we've gotten nothing done, we feel guilty, and that makes it even harder for us to get something done. Remember, you begin with the first step, so when discouragement seems to be overtaking you, find something that needs to be done. Then start doing it. Get some rest Of course, you may be discouraged because you've been going too hard and too long, and your body simply needs a rest. Elijah discovered how vulnerable he was to discouragement when he was physically exhausted, so God put him in a spot where he could recuperate and be refreshed with food and sleep. If your body is constantly on the verge of exhaustion, you can't expect to avoid discouragement. Ignore the discouragers around you Are there people around you who are discouraging you with their negativity? Are you listening to others more than you are listening to God? Remember when Jairus pleaded with Jesus to come and heal his little daughter? On the way to Jairus' house some men came from his house and said, "Don't bother coming—she's dead already.” But we read in Mark 5, ignoring what they said, Jesus told the synagogue ruler, “Don't be afraid; just believe.” Others will discourage you if you allow them to. You must learn to listen to Jesus and tune out—ignore—the people who would discourage you. Tune them out; avoid them where possible; change the subject—whatever you must do—but don't let negative people discourage you. Don't catch their disease. Think about what is true, noble, right, pure, lovely and admirable—the good reports, not the bad ones. Remember, being discouraged is not a sin, but refusing to take steps out of discouragement is. These biblical principles will work if you practice them.

It was always at home. It was in the simple getting up in the morning to pray like Jesus who, "Arising a great while before day, arose, and departed, and went out into a solitary place and there prayed." Mark 1:35.Long walks in nature and seeing His birds in flight, and looking upwards into His skies has always been when He has met me. It has been in the simple, natural places of home that I would speak to Him, and feel His reciprocated love upon me. Awaking in the middle of the night my thoughts would arise and my prayers like incense ascended, and He was ever-present. I have never felt His Presence in religious crowds and noise, but only in quiet home moments. During Jesus' life, He was always going into people's homes whenever invited. When He did lives were changed forever. There were magnificent accounts of deliverances, miracles and quiet healings right under their simple home roofs.Wherever you live, in whatever roof you live under, Jesus Christ will enter in under your roof when you ask Him. He will never turn you down. Blind Bartemeus received his sight, the Paraplegic walked, Simon Peter's mother-in-law was healed of a fever. Jairus' daughter was resurrected. On earth Jesus never had a home of His own. Make Him your eternal Home and He will be the Roof over your life now and forevermore.“There is no joy in the soul that has forgotten what God prizes.”― Oswald Chambers

Jesus teaches how faith can grow and mature. In this message, we will look at the imperfect faith of Jairus as he receives the news that his daughter has died. Jairus is a believer in Jesus and he runs to Him and begs for Jesus to come to his home to heal his daughter. But there is a pause in the journey… The post Perfecting an Imperfect Faith, Part 4 | Perfecting Imperfect Faith appeared first on Pillar of Truth Radio.

Send us a textHave you ever allowed a problem to become your identity? In this powerful message, we dive into the often-overlooked story of the woman with the issue of blood from Mark 5. While everyone around her defined her by her suffering, Jesus saw beyond her condition to her true identity.The contrast is striking – Jairus enters the story with both his name and title intact, while this woman is known only by her affliction. For twelve years, she wasn't just bleeding physically; she was hemorrhaging her sense of self, her place in community, her very identity. How many of us have done the same? We transform our wounds into personas, our traumas into labels, until we forget who we truly are beneath the pain.Through this woman's encounter with Jesus, we discover a four-part framework for experiencing breakthrough and reclaiming our God-given identity. She heard about Jesus, controlling her intake and filling her mind with hope. She moved despite her limitations, pushing through the crowd when everything said she shouldn't. She thought with faith, choosing to believe "if I can just touch his robe, I will be healed" among the thousands of other possible negative thoughts. And finally, she told her story, vulnerably sharing her whole truth when Jesus called her out.But the most beautiful moment came when Jesus named her "daughter" – the only time in scripture he addressed anyone this way. In that moment, he didn't just heal her body; he restored her identity. He transformed her from an unnamed woman defined by her issue to a daughter with a place in God's family.Whether you're struggling with physical healing, emotional wounds, or a lost sense of self, this message will challenge you to stop letting your issues name you. You are more than your problems. You are a child of the Most High God. Thank you for listening to the Relate Community Church podcast! Don't forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode.

Luke chapter 8 begins by naming some of the women who accompany our Lord and his Apostles. Among them was Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's nobleman (consider some of the difficulties this may have occasioned – perhaps very similar to Obadiah, the steward of Ahab; who had fed 100 of Yahweh's prophets during the great drought). The Parable of the Sower is taught, as the basis of understanding all of our Lord's parables. As we have seen it can be called the parable of the soils; as the seed sown is the same – it was the response that differed. The chapter then records an explanation from Jesus as to why our Lord spoke in parables. It was to reveal the message to the seekers and to confound the self righteous. The teaching by parables is a fulfilment of Christ's mission and is explained in Psalm 78:1-4 and Isaiah 6:1-13. Then follows the parable of the lamp on the table which outlines the disciple's responsibility to spread the Gospel. Jesus' mother and brothers, being concerned for him, seek to curtail his preaching. They are told to join the supporters rather than those who are slowing down God's work. Next Jesus calms a storm demonstrating that he is indeed the Son of God (see Psalm 107 verses 23 to 32). The chapter then says that he heals the man called Legion. Whose curing is proved by the destruction of the pigs. The Jews should not have been breeding these as the Law of Moses forbad it. The record follows with the curing of the woman with the issue of blood for 12 years (note Luke's ironic comments about his fellow doctors).

Put your hands on my girl. She's 12 years old. So that she will be healed and live. Mark tells of another person who's reaching out her hands. He doesn't give us her name. This unnamed woman has been waiting, bleeding, for twelve long years. Everything she has spent is gone. Everything she has has been spent. Every possible option has been exhausted. And she's dying too. She needs Jesus to reach out his hands and touch her. Jesus responds to both of them. The prominent man, Jairus, and the unnamed woman. He's there for them both. He's there to do what he set out to do. To reach out his hands of compassion, and stop the bleeding. To stop death.

Each is given significant detail. The first is Jesus casting demons out of a man and into a herd of swine. The man is in torment and the demons are many, but they are subject to the authority of Christ. They even ask permission from Jesus to be cast into the pigs. The second miracle is with a woman who has been bleeding for twelve years. Amid a massive crowd, she pushes through and touches His coat and is immediately healed. Jesus praises her faith. The final miracle is raising a synagogue official's daughter from the dead! Jesus tells the man, “Do not be afraid any longer, only believe.” Peter, James, and John are allowed to witness this incredible miracle! Each of these stories tells us something about Jesus' authority. Casting out the demons shows that Jesus controls all the spiritual realms. The demons knew He was “the Son of the Most High God,” and they were powerless against Him. The woman's healing demonstrates Jesus' power over the human body, as He heals her in an instant. The raising of Jairus's daughter proves Jesus can bring life after death. All of this is designed to increase our faith. He controls the demons and casts them away from us. He can heal and protect and help us and our bodies. And not even death can separate us from the power of Jesus, who commands our souls to come and go wherever He chooses.  Great God of glory, we believe in the authority and power of Your Son Jesus Christ. We believe He controls the spiritual world beyond our sight. We know He has power over our bodies and lives. And we live with the assurance that He has the keys to death and hades and will give us life again after physical death. He has proven His ability in the miracles of His ministry and His resurrection from the dead. Please empower us to remember and share these eternal truths. Help us to surrender our lives to His authority.   Thought Questions: -       The man with the demon needed Jesus. You may be overcome by struggles you cannot bear alone. How should you approach Jesus about those?  -       The woman was desperate when she reached for Jesus' cloak. Have you ever felt like that? And what does it look like to reach out for Him? -       The people laughed when Jesus said He would raise the girl. Do you believe Jesus will raise you? How does that affect your daily life? 

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Mark 5:21-43 - When Jesus had crossed again in the boat to the other side, a large crowd gathered around Him, and He stayed close to the sea. One of the synagogue officials, named Jairus, came forward. Seeing Him he fell at his feet and pleaded earnestly with Him, saying, “My daughter is at the point of death. Please, come lay Your Hands on her that she may get well and live.” He went off with him and a large crowd followed Him. There was a woman afflicted with hemorrhages for twelve years. She had suffered greatly at the hands of many doctors and had spent all that she had. Yet she was not helped but only grew worse. She had heard about Jesus and came up behind Him in the crowd and touched His cloak. She said, “If I but touch His clothes, I shall be cured.” Immediately her flow of blood dried up. She felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction. Jesus, aware at once that power had gone out from Him, turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who has touched My clothes?” But His disciples said to Him, “You see how the crowd is pressing upon You, and yet You ask, Who touched Me?” And He looked around to see who had done it. The woman, realizing what had happened to her, approached in fear and trembling. She fell down before Jesus and told Him the whole truth. He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has saved you. Go in peace and be cured of your affliction.” While He was still speaking, people from the synagogue official's house arrived and said, “Your daughter has died; why trouble the Teacher any longer?” Disregarding the message that was reported, Jesus said to the synagogue official, “Do not be afraid; just have faith.” He did not allow anyone to accompany Him inside except Peter, James, and John, the brother of James. When they arrived at the house of the synagogue official, He caught sight of a commotion, people weeping and wailing loudly. So He went in and said to them, “Why this commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but asleep.” And they ridiculed Him. Then He put them all out. He took along the child's father and mother and those who were with Him and entered the room where the child was. He took the child by the hand and said to her, “Talitha koum,” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, arise!” The girl, a child of twelve, arose immediately and walked around. At that they were utterly astounded. He gave strict orders that no one should know this and said that she should be given something to eat.

Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible for February 2nd, 2025. Today, Hunter, your Bible reading coach, takes us on an extraordinary journey through the Scriptures. We'll be diving into Exodus 33-34, Psalm 16, and Acts 9. In Exodus, we'll witness the profound interactions between God and Moses, and the renewal of the covenant. In Psalm 16, David exalts the Lord as his refuge and inheritance. Finally, in Acts 9, we'll encounter the dramatic transformation of Saul to Paul, an apostle chosen to spread the message of Jesus Christ. Hunter also reflects on the continual presence of Jesus in our lives, inviting us to experience his transforming love and forgiveness. Join us as we read, reflect, and pray together, and remember, you are truly loved. Let's dive into God's Word. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He's Still There The book is called Acts of the Apostles, and we're going to see a lot of the apostles in the days ahead, especially Paul and Peter. But the person we're going to see the most is Jesus. This book could be called the Acts of Jesus because he's still there with his followers doing what he always does. But now he's moving beyond Israel and is outside the city of Damascus. He's about to do those things that we've seen him do. He's about to overwhelm one of his enemies with light and forgiveness and love. He'll blind Saul and transform him into Paul. He's on his way up into another upper room where people are mourning the loss of a generous-hearted woman named Tabitha. Peter's there in that room for sure, but the writer of this book doesn't want you to miss the fact that Jesus is there too. If this moment sounds familiar, it should because it echoes back to Jesus in an upper room, the room of Jairus, the synagogue ruler with his twelve-year-old daughter, a girl Jesus called Talitha. Both Tabitha and Talitha had passed from life to death. He's still doing what he always does. He's bringing life where there was once death. And he's here with us today too, doing now what he has always done. He's overwhelming our resistant hearts with his light, forgiveness, and love, opening eyes to see more and more just who he is, the way he did with Paul. He's also entering into the upper rooms of our hearts where there is death and a need for resurrection and hope. There, he takes us by the hand and says words like, it's time to get up. It's time to live. He's still there doing what he does. He's bringing his light and forgiveness and love, and he's doing this all around the world even today. In fact, he's in the room with you right now. Do you hear him? Do you sense his presence? Hear his word of forgiveness and light and love. Let him take you by the hand and raise you up to new life today. That's a prayer that I have for my own soul. And that's a prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, and my daughters, and my son. And that's a prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near.
