Mark 9:14-29
Anthony continues our series Encounters with Jesus. He says: "Over the past four weeks, we have looked at encounters that people had with Jesus in the gospels. It has been amazing to see how Jesus reacts and responds in these encounters; my prayer inside this series is that we, too, would have encounters with Jesus in the here and now! One of the things I have noticed when looking at these encounters with Jesus, is that Jesus has the Authority and the Power to act in different situations and circumstances: - Where there is chaos – Jesus brings order. - Where there is oppression – Jesus brings freedom. - Where there is brokenness – Jesus brings restoration. - Where there is anxiety – Jesus brings peace. - Where there is sickness – Jesus brings health. - Where there is darkness – Jesus brings light. - Where there is death – Jesus brings life. This week, we will see that Jesus has Authority and Power in an area that we don't often think about and possibly don't experience. It's an area that people have different understandings, experiences and feelings about."
