Jesus redefines power by entering Jerusalem with a demonstration of both humility & divine authority. He was not what people expected. We model the humility of Jesus whenever we sacrifice part of our own privilege & power to serve others in Truth & Love of the Gospel.

In this story Jesus exorcises a demon from a young boy. One which the Disciples were unable to drive out. As a result, Jesus reprimands them for their failure to trust the One to whom they ought to be praying, but don’t. It would seem they may act in religious ways, but their faith was not placed rightly in prayer - theirs was demonstrated in the reliance of self. But prayer in relationship with Jesus demonstrates a relationship of practical trust in His power to accomplish more than we might ever imagine.

When Jesus walks on water & invites Peter to do the same, He proclaims He’s the Son of God and, in so doing, strengthens the faith of His disciples. Practicing our faith in new uncomfortable ways forces us to set our fears aside & put our trust in Jesus. We can trust that Jesus is the Great ‘I am’ who comes to us through the darkest storms of life.

Jesus’s power to resurrect the ruler’s daughter announces God’s limitless power over life & death. When we believe God possesses power over life & death faith produces courage - we’re free to put our hope for the future in His hands.
