Dave Reynders takes us through Luke 5:17-26
Jesus saw the faith of those carrying the paralyzed man, they had confident expectation in Jesus' power and authority. There faith was not idle they climbed to the roof and lowered the paralysed man before Jesus feet.
Luke 5:24-25[AMP] Jesus said to the paralyzed man, “I say to you, get up, pick up your stretcher and go home.” He immediately stood up before them, picked up his stretcher, and went home glorifying and praising God. They were all astonished, and they began glorifying God; and they were filled with [reverential] fear and kept saying, “We have seen wonderful and incredible things today!”
Act in faith with expectation. Effort is rewarded and encouraged.
