Here we are again, the disciples have failed miserably. Well, this sounds familiar. But now their failure is in front of a large crowd and also before the religious leaders of the day. They must have been embarrassed and ashamed. Have you ever felt that way? Or natural tendency in those situations is to run and hide but there is nowhere for them to go. Who can cover their shame? Who can calm their fears? What's the answer? Jesus! Jesus comes to the rescue. He challenges the religious leaders. He delivers a boy from a demon. And, he counsels His disciples with these three very important truths. They needed to know them and so do we: The Ruthlessness of Evil The Reality of Faith The Reliance on Prayer. Jesus comforts us in facts that: True saving faith is based on the object of your faith (the foundation): the Person and Work of Jesus. And that it is not about the proportion of your faith but about the presence of your faith. Be encouraged! _________________________________________________________________________________________________ ABOUT JAMES AND LESSONS FOR LIFE Are you longing to find answers to the deeper issues of life?

In Scripture, it tells us that people cried out "peace, peace," where there was no peace. The Bible says they mistakenly looked to political leaders to provide for them, to secure them, to satisfy them. However, the godless leaders were taking them down a path to destruction. So what is the answer? Turn to the only Leader who can meet your needs for significance, security, and satisfaction, and that is found in the Lord Jesus Christ alone. Be encouraged as the true Leader is still and forever will be King of kings and Lord of lords! _________________________________________________________________________________________________ ABOUT JAMES AND LESSONS FOR LIFE Are you longing to find answers to the deeper issues of life?
