Using the scripture passage of Mark 9:14-29, Jodi walks through what Jesus was revealing to the disciples and the dad of a boy oppressed by a spirit and the importance of where we place our faith. Faith is a gift from God and because of that, it has the capacity to grow. Jodi shares that our ears, our natural and inner being ears are connected to growing faith. The growth of faith within us increases our awareness of God’s presence. She also delves into what it means when sin can cause separation from God and what we must be aware of in our daily lives that can cause those hindrances.
Other scripture passages referenced include Romans 10:17, John 1:1-2, Ephesians 2:8-10, Matthew 6:19-24, Acts 17:28, Habakkuk 1:13, Ephesians 4:18, 25-30, Colossians 1:21, 1 John 1:9, Psalm 139:23-24, Psalm 51
And Jesus answered, “O faithless and twisted generation, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him here to me.” And Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him, and the boy was healed instantly. Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?” He said to them, “Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.” Matthew 17:17-20 (ESV)
