January 16 Devotion

Read Luke 5:12-16

In verse 13 Jesus said these powerful words that need to be seared onto our hearts, "I am willing." Jesus is willing to enter our world of hurt, pain, and disease and bring healing and restoration. 

Also, notice the faith statement of the man with leprosy. He said, "You can make me clean."

This man knew who he was dealing with. He was speaking to one who had authority and power.  The only question was, "Are you willing?"

This healing of Jesus was not for show.  It was not even to prove a point.  Jesus with compassion reached out his hand (to touch a man with an oozing skin ailment) to express love through healing.  Jesus is willing.

Is there something you need to bring to the Lord in prayer today? Bring your requests to one with authority and who is willing.




Are the devotions encouraging and helpful? If so, feel free to pass along by email to friends.
