"How Bad Do You Want It?"

In the city near the sheep gate was a pool with five porches, and its name in Hebrew was Bethzatha. Many sick, blind, lame, and paralyzed people were lying close to the pool. Beside the pool was a man who had been sick for 38 years. When Jesus saw the man and realized that he had been crippled for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to be healed?” The man answered, “Sir, I don't have anyone to put me in the pool when the water is stirred up. I try to get in, but someone else always gets there first.” 

John 5:2‭-‬7 CEV 

Sometimes, God will allow a situation, not so you can feel sorry for yourself...But so you can see that no one in your particular situation is better than you.

Whether the invalid man looked to left or to the right of him, there was no one at that pool better than him...Everybody there was dealing  with something.

Beloved, 

Everybody around you is dealing with something. So, How can they be better than you?

Okay so, they might be faster at getting to their desired goal than you.

While you are still finding excuses as to why you can't; just like the invalid man in the text...They are finding a way to just do it!

But are they better you? Absolutely NOT! If they can do it, you can too.

That invalid man could've gotten in that pool just as much as anyone else there....But he had to really want it.

How bad do you want it, that goal, that promotion, that career opportunity etc.?

Can you see yourself achieving it even if no one ever stops to help you, to give you a  helping hand, a break, or a good deal?

Or are you too busy feeling sorry for yourself, because you think it's too late to get in the pool, to get in the business, to get in that program and earn a degree etc.?

Don't you know the bible talks about you being able to do ALL things; talks about  you being ready for anything and equal to anything through Him?... 

Christ is The Key according to 

Philip 4:13 NIV & AMP

So, Selah- Pause & Think About That!!

Until Next Sunday.
