*DAILY DEW 26/JULY/2025* *Protocol Faith vs Proactive Faith: Faith That Works* _Key Bible Text:_ *"As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe."* (Mark 5: 36) _Bible Insight_ In Mark 5:36, Jesus tells Jairus, the ruler of the synagogue, "Be not afraid, only believe" after hearing that his daughter has died. This verse highlights the importance of faith in the face of adversity. Jairus had come to Jesus seeking healing for his daughter, and despite the delay and bad news, Jesus encourages him to maintain his faith. The context of this verse allows us to compare the approaches of Jairus and the woman with the issue of blood. While Jairus represents a more traditional and possibly anxious approach, seeking Jesus' direct intervention, the woman exemplifies faith through action, touching Jesus' garment in faith. Jesus' response to both individuals underscores the value of faith, whether expressed through direct request or tangible action. Jesus' words to Jairus emphasize the essence of faith: trusting in God's power and promise despite circumstances. Faith is not about the absence of challenges but about trusting God's ability to work through them. This lesson applies universally, encouraging believers to hold onto faith in the face of uncertainty and adversity. This passage teaches us about the importance of maintaining faith, especially when faced with seemingly insurmountable challenges. Jesus' encouragement to Jairus serves as a reminder that faith can overcome fear and doubt, leading to miraculous outcomes. Both the woman's and Jairus' stories demonstrate that faith, whether expressed through action or trust, is powerful and recognized by Jesus. _MEDITATION_ *"There's a protocol faith and there is a proactive faith. Both gets results. However, a proactive faith like the woman's blood issues, will be sorted before a protocol faith."* *#DavidJoshuaEgbochuo* *#Mr_Positive_Impact* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_July,2025* ❤ *Facebook Link:* https://www.facebook.com/share/1ZXrcgLmwm/ Please follow *David Joshua Egbochuo* on Facebook for more positive impact contents.
