Ⅰ. What are the obstacles blocking my desire?
The walls of Jerusalem had seven gates. Drill in the northwest corner as an offering called ‘Yangmun’
Near the gate was the most beast-passing gate, and there was the legendary Pond of Healing, the Pond of Bethesda. Bethesda had five sanctuaries where the sick could worship and pray. There were many sick people lying there, waiting for the movement of the water to shake at some point. According to legend, there are times when an angel comes and causes the water of the pond to flow from the depths of the earth. At that time, the superstition believed that the first person to enter the pond would be healed of any disease. Many sick people were divided into five quarters and were living there lying down. I was living my life that way, vaguely expecting something that would never happen, even if it didn't matter.
The question Jesus asked, “Do you want to be healed?” was a question asked by a 38-year-old sick man to face him honestly. The first thing Jesus said in the question asked is, do you really want to leave your reality and live a new life no matter what others say? Second, are you not taking responsibility for your life right now, and are you secretly enjoying yourself as an excuse by blaming others for your current state? And do you really want to be honest with yourself, getting up and living the new destiny God has created for you? was to do. Jesus was searching for the thoughts of the heart that were hidden deep in the heart of the 38-year-old sick man.
The Lord wants to heal us. That is why the Lord came. The Lord visits us today just as He visited the 38-year-old sick man in Bethesda. As if receiving the warm sun on our body, the Lord comes to us through the Holy Spirit and asks. “Are you really trying to get better?” “Do you really want to change?” “Do you really want to be saved?” Even though you are living a life of faith like this, “Do you know what is the main cause of living without feeling the presence of God?” “Do you know the fundamental reason why God keeps getting unfamiliar, skeptical, and unbelievable even though I do volunteer work?” The Lord asks me and comes to me and says, “Get up, pick up your bed and walk” He tells you to get up from that place of life and take up your bed of excuses and walk. Decide to get up. And take the place of excuses and excuses. Those who stand up for change by relying on the word of the Lord will see the miracles of God.
