Bible Study: Lord I Believe! Help My Unbelief! |Mark 9:14-29 |Jesus Heals a Boy w/ an Unclean Spirit

“Let him who walks in darkness and has no light trust in the name of the Lord and rely on his God.” (Isaiah 50:10) You know how it turned out for that father; you know how it turned out with Jesus’ resurrection. Do you think it will be any different for you, O you of little faith? Even if things get dark for a while, all things are possible for one who believes, for all things are possible for the one we believe in. Jesus was dead, but now is alive. Is the evil one throwing you into the fire and water to try to destroy you? 

Do not worry - Jesus beat him to it! John the Baptist said it: He who is coming after me is mightier than I . . . He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit (water) and fire (John 3:11). And He has! You are baptized into Jesus’ death and resurrection to destroy the sin in you and give you a new life (Romans 6). His life. A forgiven life. A life that neither sin, death, nor devil can end. That when your body becomes a corpse, maybe for a long time, Jesus will then come and take you by the hand and lift you up, too. To a life where no evil, no darkness, can ever enter again.
