 THE NEED
The sick man answered Him, “Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is
stirred up; but while I am coming, another steps down before me.” Jesus said to him, “Rise,
take up your bed and walk.” *John 5.7
Then he stood and cried out to the armies of Israel, and said to them, “Why have you come
out to line up for battle? Am I not a Philistine, and you the servants of Saul? Choose a man for
yourselves, and let him come down to me *1 Samuel 17.8
And the Angel of the LORD appeared to him, and said to him, “The LORD is with you, you
mighty man of valor!” * Judges 6.12 *

Spirit of God?” *Genesis 41.38*
