Mark 9:14-29

VERSE OF THE DAY: Immediately the boy's father exclaimed, "I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!"—Mark 9:24

In this passage, Jesus heals a boy with an unclean spirit. There are so many important verses, points, and messages in this passage! A secondary key verse is probably v20, bc it demonstrates that the enemy did NOT want toe into the presence of God! This passage covers the importance of faith versus unbelief and what happens when you do choose faith over unbelief or fear. Verse 29 reminds us that we can't do anything without being in prayer, in and with the presence of God.

REFLECTION: Help My Unbelief

• It’s easy to be proud of what we believe.
• It’s hard to be vulnerable about our doubts.
• Jesus can move through our faith.
• He can also use our doubts if we bring them to Him.
• Our doubts are a weakness until we bring them to Jesus.

GET HONEST ABOUT YOUR DOUBTS: What are some matters of faith you struggle with? How can you bring them to Jesus?
