May the victory of Christ be evident in your life on this day!\r\nWe are looking at the story of\u00a0<strong>a Canaanite woman<\/strong>\u00a0who was persistent and thus evoked God\u2019s intervention in her daughter\u2019s life, even though it seemed impossible. She left us an example of faith that is worth a special attention.\r\nYesterday we saw how this woman overcame what i called \u2018the human factor\u2019. Today we will look at how she decided to worship God instead of getting offended.\r\n<h6>\r\n\u00abAnd behold, a woman of Canaan came from that region and cried out to Him, saying, \u201cHave mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed.\u201d But He answered her not a word. And His disciples came and urged Him, saying, \u201cSend her away, for she cries out after us.\u201d But He answered and said, \u201cI was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.\u201d Then she came and worshipped Him, saying, \u201cLord, help me!\u00bb\u00a0(Mathew, 15:22-25)<\/h6>\r\nFirst, she had to overcome \u2018human factor\u2019; but after that Jesus said:\r\n<h6>\u00a0\u00abI was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel\u00bb(Mathew, 15:24).<\/h6>\r\nFor a long time I did not understand the meaning of this verse, but God opened the truth to me. At that moment the target group of the ministry of Jesus was the nation of Israel, because they had been preparing for His coming for a long time. Jesus was sent to the nation of Israel and then the Gospel would spread further through them. Jesus was not saying that salvation was for the Jews alone. That was not what He meant. When this woman heard Him saying that He was sent to Israel she acted as if she was deaf. She did not respond to these words; she simple ignored them. It was a sign of persistence and tenacity!\r\nThe Bible contains a story of a widow who did the same thing like this woman. This widow came to a judge and asked him to protect her from her opponent. And because of her persistence she received what she asked for (Luke, 18: 1-8).\r\nThe Canaanite woman refused to recieve no for an answer, because she needed a miracle for her demon-possessed daughter. This woman had nothing to lose, so she kept pressing on in faith.\r\nMothers are protectors, always ready to fight for the health and the wellbeing of their children whatever the cost. Mothers do not care others think of them or what name they are called, when it comes to fighting for the life of their children. Mothers only care about the end result. God wants us to be like these mothers who fight for their childrens life no matter the price they has to pay so that their children would be healthy in all areas of life \u2013 spiritual, emotional and physical. Mothers protect!\r\nGod desires that we all fight for and protect those He has entrusted us. He wants us to be strong, so that nothing could stop us on our way to God\u2019s miracle.\r\n\r\nFurther we see that\r\n<h6>\u00abthen she came and worshipped Him, saying, \u201cLord, help me!\u00bb\u00a0(Mathew, 15:25)<\/h6>\r\nThe woman worshipped Jesus on her knees. She did this amidst of all the people who were there that day. It speaks of her despair; she did not pay attention to her surroundings and she did not care of what the others thought. She humbled herself before Jesus. All of this spoke of her faith.\r\nThrough this story God wants to teach us a very important lesson of the place of faith in our walking in victory. Later we will talk about how faith expresses itself.\r\n\r\nA mother\u2019s faith saves her children. Faith is able to go through any barriers and brings life to places where death seems inevitable. Faith brings freedom to the doomed.\r\nGod\u2019s challange for you today is this: if you want to receive a miracle from God you need the ability to hear people and see their action from different perspective. If you are impetuous and easily get offended, your faith will be weak. True faith works by love, &#8211; offenses destroy love.\r\nBe blessed!\r\nTill tomorrow!\r\nPastor Rufus Ajiboye","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"God desires that we all fight for and protect those He has entrusted us.
