For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

"Jesus, Our Healer"
Pastor Jesse Franklin
221 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon.
22 A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, "Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is suffering terribly from demon possession."
23 Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, "Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us."
24 He answered, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel."
25 The woman came and knelt before him. "Lord, help me!" she said.
26 He replied, "It is not right to take the children's bread and toss it to their dogs."
27 "Yes, Lord," she said, "but even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters' table."
28 Then Jesus answered, "Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted." And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

Psalm 133
1 How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity!
2 It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard, running down on Aaron's beard, down upon the collar of his robes.
3 It is as if the dew of Hermon were falling on Mount Zion. For there the Lord bestows his blessing, even life
forevermore.

Romans 11:1-2, 29-32
1. I ask then: Did God reject his people? By no means! I am an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.
2 God did not reject his people, whom he foreknew. Don't you know what the Scripture says in the passage about Elijah--how he appealed to God against Israel:
...
29 for God's gifts and his call are irrevocable.
30 Just as you who were at one time disobedient to God have now received mercy as a result of their disobedience,
31 so they too have now become disobedient in order that they too may now receive mercy as a result of God's mercy to you.
32 For God has bound all men over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all.

Psalm 105:1-7
1 O my people, hear my teaching; listen to the words of my mouth.
2 I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter hidden things, things from of old-
3 what we have heard and known, what our fathers have told us.
4 We will not hide them from their children; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done.

Romans 8:26-39
26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express.
27 And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will.
28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
29 For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.
30 And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.
31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?
32 He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all--how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?
33 Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies.
34 Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died--more than that, who was raised to life--is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?
36 As it is written: "For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered."
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.
38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers,
39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Psalm 25:6-10
6 Remember, O Lord , your great mercy
and love, for they are from of old.
7 Remember not the sins of my youth
and my rebellious ways; according to
your love remember me, for you are
good, O Lord .
8 Good and upright is the Lord ; therefore
he instructs sinners in his ways.
9 He guides the humble in what is right
and teaches them his way.
10 All the ways of the Lord are loving and
faithful for those who keep the demands
of his covenant.

Romans 8:1-11
1 Therefore, there is now no
condemnation for those who are in
Christ Jesus,
2 because through Christ Jesus the law
of the Spirit of life set me free from the
law of sin and death.
3 For what the law was powerless to do
in that it was weakened by the sinful
nature, God did by sending his own Son
in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin
offering. And so he condemned sin in
sinful man,
4 in order that the righteous requirements
of the law might be fully met in us, who
do not live according to the sinful nature
but according to the Spirit.
5 Those who live according to the sinful
nature have their minds set on what that
nature desires; but those who live in
accordance with the Spirit have their
minds set on what the Spirit desires.
6 The mind of sinful man is death, but the
mind controlled by the Spirit is life and
peace;
7 the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does
not submit to God's law, nor can it do so.
8 Those controlled by the sinful nature
cannot please God.
9 You, however, are controlled not by the
sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit
of God lives in you. And if anyone does
not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not
belong to Christ.
10 But if Christ is in you, your body is
dead because of sin, yet your spirit is
alive because of righteousness.
11 And if the Spirit of him who raised
Jesus from the dead is living in you, he
who raised Christ from the dead will also
give life to your mortal bodies through
his Spirit, who lives in you.
1 Therefore, there is now no
condemnation for those who are in
Christ Jesus,
2 because through Christ Jesus the law
of the Spirit of life set me free from the
law of sin and death.
3 For what the law was powerless to do
in that it was weakened by the sinful
nature, God did by sending his own Son
in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin

5 Those who live according to the sinful
nature have their minds set on what that
nature desires; but those who live in
accordance with the Spirit have their
minds set on what the Spirit desires.
6 The mind of sinful man is death, but the
mind controlled by the Spirit is life and
peace;
7 the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does
not submit to God's law, nor can it do so.
8 Those controlled by the sinful nature
cannot please God.
9 You, however, are controlled not by the

not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not
belong to Christ.
10 But if Christ is in you, your body is
dead because of sin, yet your spirit is
alive because of righteousness.
11 And if the Spirit of him who raised
Jesus from the dead is living in you, he
who raised Christ from the dead will also
give life to your mortal bodies through
his Spirit, who lives in you.
Matthew 13:1-9, 18-23
1 That same day Jesus went out of
the house and sat by the lake.
2 Such large crowds gathered around
him that he got into a boat and sat in it,
while all the people stood on the shore.
3 Then he told them many things in
parables, saying: "A farmer went out to
sow his seed.
4 As he was scattering the seed, some
fell along the path, and the birds came
and ate it up.
5 Some fell on rocky places, where it did
not have much soil. It sprang up quickly,
because the soil was shallow.
6 But when the sun came up, the plants
were scorched, and they withered
because they had no root.
7 Other seed fell among thorns, which
grew up and choked the plants.
8 Still other seed fell on good soil, where
it produced a crop--a hundred, sixty or
thirty times what was sown.
9 He who has ears, let him hear."
...
18 "Listen then to what the parable of the
sower means:
19 When anyone hears the message
about the kingdom and does not
understand it, the evil one comes and
snatches away what was sown in his
heart. This is the seed sown along the
path.
20 The one who received the seed that
fell on rocky places is the man who
hears the word and at once receives it
with joy.
21 But since he has no root, he lasts only
a short time. When trouble or
persecution comes because of the word,
he quickly falls away.
22 The one who received the seed that
fell among the thorns is the man who
hears the word, but the worries of this
life and the deceitfulness of wealth
choke it, making it unfruitful.
23 But the one who received the seed
that fell on good soil is the man who
hears the word and understands it. He
produces a crop, yielding a hundred,
sixty or thirty times what was sown."
