Making It Great In 2008 (Part 21): Help a Brother Out

the rumor was noised about that Jesus was on site and the spreading of the word was faster than the speed of light Jesus was in the house preaching the Holy Word telling the people about things of which they had never heard when Jesus is in the house the atmosphere is electrified the Holy Spirit is present and all things are amplified a transformation is on the horizon if of Jesus the Christ you keep your eyes on excited, expectant and enthusiast knowing that the Messiah was here at last inspired and encouraged were 4 men who were most devout looking for a way to help a brother out their friend was paralyzed and needed spiritual assistance so they went to see Jesus in a manner most persistent the house was overcrowded and through the door they could not enter so they cut a hole in the roof and lowered their friend down front and center they placed him with his mat right in front of Jesus the Christ praying and hoping for a miracle to take place in his life Jesus then said "your sins are forgiven, stand and arise" the Pharisees were most critical until they came to realize that standing before them was God's righteous Son Jesus the Christ, the Messiah, the Anointed One to have compassion and to care for your fellow man to help a brother out in anyway that you can to be willing to climb up on a roof and lower someone down just to be in the presence of Jesus standing on sacred ground to have cooperation and coordination to work in unity to know that together we can claim the victory for no man is an island and we all need one another so do what you can in order to help out a brother to collaborate with others despite your personal feelings to get the job done so that we all can get some healing with cooperation, coordination and collaboration first in mind those 4 friends were determined that of Jesus they would find with true faith, total trust and nary a doubt they did what was needed to help a brother out by any means necessary with a radical concept they did a risky thing that no one would ever expect Jesus looked at that paralytic and immediately dealt with his sin for in order to be healed you must start with the spirit within and after the absolution He told him to stand and arise and all who were present were amazed and stupefied so when you walk with Jesus walk without doubt and trust that the Lord will help a brother out
