Mark 5:21-43

27When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his
garment.
28For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

29And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in
her body that she was healed of that plague.
30 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in
peace, and be whole of thy plague.
36As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler
of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.
JUST BELIEVE
Mark 5:21-43
INTRODUCTION
 What makes our prayers answered?
 What makes miracles?
 What pleases God?
 What moves mountains?

FAITH
INTRODUCTION
 Matthew 17:20; And Jesus said unto them, Because of your
unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of
mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence
to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be
impossible unto you.

 Nothing will be impossible for you.

 Without faith it is impossible to please God.

bleeding for twelve years.
 The woman believed and was healed.

CONCLUSION
 For without faith, it is impossible to please God, we don’t receive
because we don’t ask. We don’t receive because we DON”T
BELIEVE HIM.
 It is God who answers prayers.
 Do you want Him to be pleased and be glorified and your prayer
answered?
 If you think it’s over don’t be afraid, just believe. Like the woman
she believed and acted that faith.
 And God moved.
 Hebrews 11:6, …for he that cometh to God must believe that he is,
and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
