DESPERATE WITH FAITH!

DESPERATE WITH FAITH!


Are you or have you
Ever been=DESPERATE in your FAITH
To find God=to find Jesus
In your life?


I am=I have been=ever
SINCE I got up off of
My deathbed when I was
22-years-old


“I do BELIEVE=help my unbelief!” Mark 9:24


This is one of the
MOST RECOGNIZED lines
In all of Scripture


It is about a FATHER
Who has-
Brought his possessed son=
FIRST to the disciples


And then=ULTIMATELY to Jesus=
And Jesus BRINGS out the devil
From the demon possessed boy


DESPERATE WITH FAITH=
We are dear Lord=
Help us to BELIEVE in you
When our faith is lacking


We can SURELY relate
To this man's desperation-
And at first=his
WEAK FAITH


“You have shown
Your people=DESPERATE times


You have
Given us wine
That makes us stagger” Psalm 60:3


“Do not hold
Against us=the sins
Of past generations


May your mercy
Come quickly
To meet us


For we are in
DESPERATE NEED” Psalm 79:8


DESPERATE WITH FAITH!


Dear Lord=in life=there are
FREQUENT reminders
Of our LACK of faith


We KNOW
Our faith should be stronger=
If only we had the
FAITH of
The mustard seed
We could indeed move MOUNTAINS


But indeed we shouldn't
FEEL so bad=for the
Apostles themselves=
Lacked faith at times”


“He replied
'Because you have so
LITTLE faith-
Truly I tell you


If you have faith
As small as a MUSTARD SEED
You can say
To this mountain'


'MOVE from here to there
And it will move-
NOTHING will be
IMPOSSIBLE for you'” Matthew 17:20-21


We need NEVER to
Give up HOPE
We need to find
The FAITH
That this Father had


Who when he was DESPERATE-
Cried out-
To the LORD for help
And this Father
Was heard


“Consequently-
FAITH comes from hearing
The message


And the message is heard
Through the WORD about CHRIST” Romans 10:17


Dear Lord=we are sometimes
Lacking and sometimes DESPERATE
To FIND the word of God
And HEALING


When we CRY OUT
DESPERATELY=with faith
Please hear us=and answer us


In Jesus' name=and in the name of our ALL LOVING FATHER
