Healing
Have you ever felt stuck in your pain, wondering if healing is even possible? In this sermon, we explore how Jesus repeatedly asked people, “Do you want to be healed?”—not because He didn’t know the answer, but because healing requires a response. From the man at the Pool of Bethesda to Blind Bartimaeus, Jesus never assumed someone wanted freedom—He called them to step into it. So why do so many of us stay trapped in frustration, offense, and resentment? Could it be that we’ve built expectations that reality can’t fulfill? Today, we unpack the formula for frustration, how the enemy uses offense as a weapon, and why responding differently is the key to breakthrough. Healing is available—but do you really want it? Let’s talk about it.
Luke 23:34
