HOPELESS CASES?

Luke 8:26-56 tells us how Jesus dealt with “hopeless cases.”

The demon-possessed man had been chained “many times but had always broken loose (v29).

The woman who touched Jesus had been bleeding for a dozen years, and”no one could heal her” (v43).

And the daughter of Jairus was dead: all hope was gone, and friends advised, “Don’t bother the Teacher anymore” (v49).

Yet Jesus cast out the demon, restored the health of the woman, and raised the little girl from the dead.

These stories remind us of a wonderful truth. There are no “hopeless cases” with the Lord. The power of a Jesus Christ is great enough to meet every need, and to transform any sinner as well.

Ask and keep on asking, seek and keep on seeking, knock and keep on knocking.
