John 5:8–9 says:
"Then Jesus said to him, 'Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.' At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked." (NIV)
These verses recount the moment Jesus healed a man who had been an invalid for 38 years. With just a word, Jesus restored him—demonstrating His authority, compassion, and power to bring immediate transformation.
In daily life, this reminds us that no situation is beyond God’s power to change. When Jesus speaks, healing happens. No matter how long we’ve been stuck or struggling, He can lift us up, restore us, and set us on a new path—instantly and completely.
