Mark 5:21-43

“Only Believe” is a sermon that underscores the transformative power of faith in Jesus Christ, inspired by the story of Jairus’s daughter (Mark 5:21-43). When Jairus, a synagogue leader, sought Jesus to heal his dying daughter, news came that she had already passed. Despite this, Jesus urged him with the powerful words, “Do not be afraid; only believe.” This message illustrates how faith in Christ defies even the finality of death. The sermon encourages believers to trust in God’s ability to bring restoration and life, even in seemingly hopeless situations. It challenges us to hold fast to our faith, knowing that Jesus’ authority and love can overcome every obstacle.
