Yes I am Willing

Genesis 12; Genesis 13; Genesis 14; Luke 5

Scripture:
Luke 5:12 And it happened when He was in a certain city, that behold, a man who was full of leprosy saw Jesus; and he fell on his face and implored Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”
13 Then He put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately the leprosy left him.

Observation:
Jesus must have been so blessed by the cry of this leper. The leper comes to Jesus for healing, he recognizes who Jesus is and steps out in faith. Jesus moved by compassion responds, "I am willing" and Jesus heals the leper. This is the kind of faith that God wants me to come to Him with. He wants me to step out in faith and ask. God is willing, and that is the good news for me today. He is willing to heal me! He is willing to restore me. He is wiling to bless me. He is willing to forgive me elevate me, promote me, prosper me, fill me with His wisdom, favor and most of all His presence. God is willing, the question is am I asking?

Application:
God is willing, I need to be asking!

Prayer:
