Pain That Incites A Search for Faith | John 4:46-47

So he came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And at Capernaum there was an official whose son was ill. When this man heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. — John 4:46-47 This official was undoubtedly someone of substantial influence, skill, and knowledge. But here we see that he is driven to less than conventional means to seek healing for his son's condition. This is probably why John includes the story. John is aware that this is a powerful man in a desperate state. His son is knocking on death's door, and this is a father in extreme despair. He even makes a two-day journey knowing that his son may be dead when he returns. It's a one-day trip to Cana and a one-day return trip to Capernaum. This is a last-ditch effort for his dying son. Every person in this life will meet with a moment similar to this. Maybe not exactly like it, but very similar. One that drives them to seek supernatural resolutions to situations and issues that cannot be resolved naturally. A moment where they have to deal with the fact that their ability, knowledge, and provision are limited. And what I love about Jesus is that he has both the answers and the healing we all need. What about you? Are you looking for answers you don't presently have? Have you exhausted every potential natural solution? Do you need spiritual, emotional, mental, or physical healing? If so, isn't it finally time to come to Jesus? If you are ready and want healing, let me know in the comments today, and I will pray for you. ASK THIS: Are you ready to come to Jesus? DO THIS: If you need healing, leave a comment, and we will pray for you. PRAY THIS: God, may my comments be my confession to you. PLAY THIS: Healer.
