The Gospel of John - Would You Like to Get Well?

Read John 5:1-9

When Jesus saw him and knew he had been ill for a long time, he asked him, “Would you like to get well?” – John 5:6 (NLT)

All of us are a work in progress, spiritually. As we continue to seek God, He brings to our attention another area of our lives where we are not yet aligned with His will and asks, “Would you like to get well?” As we move beyond our initial reaction (perhaps based on repeated failures) of “I can’t,” and listen to and obey God’s direction, we will find that we can get well through God’s power to change the way we think, speak and act. Where are you telling God “I can’t” today? Of course you can’t. But the same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead dwells in you, and He can.
