"Now in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate there is a pool called in Hebrew Bethesda, having five porches." John 5.2

 

The name of this place (Bethesda) means 'house of mercy'. It is, says the Bible, by the door of the sheep.
Open the door to Jesus and let him into the house of your life.

It is a house that has five galleries. In describing this place, the Bible speaks of 5 types of problems in people's lives : there were the sick, the crippled, the blind, paralyzed and impotent. They were waiting for the moving of the water.

Indeed, something miraculous happened occasionally there. An angel came down and troubled the water and the first who descended when the water was stirred, was cured. So it was a miraculous place. The water stirred by the angel became a source of physical healing.

Today, we encounter these types of problems: for some it is physical illness, for others depression, for others with relationships or family problems ...

But God does miracles today because He is a God of miracles.

The following text shows Jesus who comes to this house of mercy. When he entered Bethesda, in the house of mercy, so much more than an angel between. It is Jesus, God himself! This is more than water movement is a movement of life is the source of all life. This is the word of God made flesh. This is one in whose name everything is subject in heaven and on earth. It is the Lord God Almighty !

There, in the house of mercy, Jesus sees the pain and suffering of this man. So ask him this question : "Wilt thou be made whole ?" (Verse 6) The word of Jesus is full of authority. It sounds under these gantries. She now heard you.

In a heartbeat, this man is healed. For the first time in all these years, he walks. He's standing. He found his life. Mercy has finally triumphed.

The house of mercy, it's your life too. Perhaps expect the action of an angel, or the movement of water, but Jesus wants to enter today in your home. Everything is possible when Jesus is there. He stands at the door of your heart and knocks Apocalypse 3.20. The handle is on the inside. You can only open the door.

An action for today

Open the door to Jesus and let him into the house of your life. If you turn the handle, then Jesus comes into your house, the house of mercy. That's how he still heals today. He has not changed. It is always the same.
