Alastair's Adversaria

CHAPTER

The Importance of Persistence in Healing and Deliverance

The woman responds to Jesus' presentation of an obstacle by taking that obstacle and turning it around to her benefit. By this point we should have picked up on the fact that Jesus seldom goes out of his way to heal people, nor does he make things easy for the people who want to be healed by him. The obstacles aren't proof that Jesus doesn't want to heal and deliver people. Rather, his healings and deliverance is called for faith from their recipients. Where such persistent faith is lacking, people are not healed.
