Luke 8:50
The words of Christ here are so important. He tells Jarius not to be afraid. He tells him to just believe. And, he assures Jairus that He can save the girl.
This is a beautiful verse. It really sets before us the right relationship to have with Christ. Fear is an awful enemy. The devil will try to use it anytime we are going to let Christ do something in our life. So first Jesus addressed it. Then, faith is really a matter of trusting the Lord. Just to allow Him into the situation is what He is saying here. He is telling Jairus that he need only let Christ into his life, and Jairus’ daughter would be fine. And that is nothing short of a picture of salvation.
Heavenly Father, fear keeps us away so often. We will lift our hands to you and invite you into our situation. You are welcome in our lives. You are the One who matters in our experience. Without you, our very lives are invalidated. We will give You the praise for You alone are worthy! In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
