It happened near the pool, in Hebrew called Beth-za'tha. "...One man was there, who had been ill for thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw him and knew that he had been lying there a long time, he said to him, "Do you want to be healed?" The sick man answered him, "Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is troubled, and while I am going another steps down before me." Jesus said to him, "Rise, take up your pallet, and walk." And at once the man was healed, and he took up his pallet and walked. (John 5: 5-9)
The Almighty Lord has a Time to intervene in everyone's life. The sick man who waited for thirty eight years to have the Mercy of God. It was for the greatness for the Lord. This is just show the Time of Jesus to start doing miracles in one's life. We may be murmuring about the sufferings out of sickness, bankrupt, other financial problems, family problems, child problems above all personal spiritual dryness etc. The list endless. But as I said earlier God has a Time.
If we closely look at the person lying there near the pool we can understand that he tried all his 38 years to get in the pool and get healed. But nobody was there to help him. As we are familiar today the selfishness of fellowmen hinder to have a healthy relationships between all of us. That is what happened in Beth-za'tha pool. He was neglected by other people. Think about this...How often we thought of sufferings... depressed, forsaken, disregarded, being cheated, feeling lonely, neglected from you love so much...For that ill man, waited, waited and waited for someone to help him. Needles to say that 38 years of waiting had a meaning when Jesus entered his life. He was totally healed. There was the ultimate helping hand, Jesus Christ!
Do not be worried, of course, wait for God's presence in our life. Like the ill man got healed we are also going to get the presence of Jesus Christ in our life. This is to manifest the Glory of God. At the right time HE will enter in our life as the light enters to darkness.
Praised the Lord and Be healed by the grace of God.
