Broken
& dead...Jairus' daughter was dead-no hope, don't bother Jesus
anymore for help-there's no use. He ran to Jesus with the hope that He'd
save her, but it was too late…stop asking Jesus for help because it
won't make a difference. Jairus was broken-his daughter lay dead &
his hope was gone.
What's been broken & dead in your life...relationship, virginity, career, family scandal, rebellious child, financial ruin, childhood innocence, betrayal of a loved one, pain so thick it suffocates you or a grief that consumes you? You're sinking in devastation-your world is spinning...dear God how will you ever overcome, will the family ever get past this, how will this pain ever stop gushing out of you, where do you go from here? Jairus was told not to bother Jesus because the girl was dead, but Jesus said to Jairus, "don't be afraid, just believe & she will be healed." Jairus had to be in a daze-his only child, now dead. He decided in the middle of his grief to believe & follow Jesus.
Don't give up & stop asking Jesus for help when all you see is a broken & dead situation. Keep on praying-keep following Him. When grief consumes your being & you can't see-Jesus will show you the way, but you won't know unless you follow. He's the way, truth & life of any dead situation you're experiencing-follow Him friend.
Jesus led Jairus back to his home where his dead daughter lay. Jesus tells the people to "stop wailing & go away." I didn't understand why Jesus spoke this way to grieving people until I received a revelation....when we experience a devastating situation, we need people to love & pray for us-supporting us through the grief process. Many well meaning people are more harmful than helpful-they don't rely on the power of Jesus' love to restore broken or dead situations. Jesus says, "come to Me, all you who labor & are heavy-laden, overburdened-I will cause you to rest. I will ease, relieve & refresh your souls. Jesus can bring life to the broken & dead situations in your life! He was beaten, broken & left for dead & laid in a tomb-everybody watching thought it was over. He's dead, gone...but on the third day He rose again-the tomb is empty!
Jesus ignored the snide remarks & naysayers as He led Jairus & those He trusted back to where the girl lay. He reached to her & she got up. Will you let Jesus reach to you, don't be afraid, just believe...He will make a way for you, He is the life to the broken & dead situation you're facing. He overcame being broken & left for dead! (Lk 8:40-56, Mt 9:24, 11:28) LMM #Jesusgiveslife #dead #grief #broken #hope #donotbeafraid #christianinsightforlife www.facebook.com/christianinsightforlife
