Scripture: 2 Kings 24-25; John 5:1-24 (5/16/2012)
The healing at the pool of Bethesda is one of the many miracles God performed. The story is about a man who is impotent, laying by a pool. At that pool, an angel came and stirred the water, and the first person to get into the water was healed of whatever disease they had. One day Jesus came by the pool of Bethesda and noticed a man and asked him “Wilt thou be made whole?” and the man said, "Sir I have no man, when the water is troubled to put me in the pool”. After hearing his story Jesus healed him of the impotence he had for 38 years.
In America today there is no pool of Bethesda, but there is a sickness that is rampant, that sickness is sin. It is all over in our churches, schools and homes. Many of the people you meet on a daily basis are sick and don’t know the cure, Jesus. If you asked Jesus into your heart to be your personal Savior, you have been healed, just like the impotent man. After this man was healed he went and told everyone about his Healer. Who are you going to tell today?
