Mark 5:27-30

Mark 5:27-30 (KJV)
27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.
28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.
29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.
30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?

Mark 4:15-19

Mark 4:15-19 (KJV)
15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.
16 And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;
17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word’s sake, immediately they are offended.
18 And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,
19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

Four Types Of People

You are either saved and there are fruits to show for it, or else you are unsaved and no fruits from God can be seen in your life.

Mark 3:24-25

Mark 3:24-25 (KJV)
24 And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
25 And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand.

A House Divided In Marriage

Only Jesus can help there to be peace and love in your home. Without Him, there is often contention and unnecessary grief.

Mark 1:14,15

Mark 1:14,15 (KJV)
14 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

Jesus’s Ministry Began

Jesus asks that we repent and believe the gospel. That Jesus died for our sins on the cross and rose from the dead the third day.

Mark 11:24-26

Mark 11:24-26 (KJV)
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.

Why I Forgive

Forgiving one another as God forgives us comes easier when we allow God to remove all the anger and bitterness from our hearts.

Mark 12:30,31

Mark 12:30,31 (KJV)
30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

Why I Write

There is a reason why I write daily devotionals. It is because of my love for Jesus and my neighbor. I want to draw people to Him.

Why I Witness

Witnessing for Jesus is the greatest joy of my life. I love to spread His gospel message of the cross and resurrection.

37 David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he then his son? And the common people heard him gladly.

Mary Was Not Always A Virgin

People may try to dispute the fact that Mary had her own children and say that those that do the will of the Father are called into His family, which is true.
