Morning Prayer 

And, behold, men brought in a bed a man which was taken with a palsy: and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him.

Inspiration 

Here we have five men of faith, the man who lay crippled on the cot and the four men who carried him to Jesus. Unable to reach Jesus due to the great crowds that had come to hear him, they opened up the roof and lowered him down. They knew Jesus had the power to heal their friend and would stop at nothing if they could only get him to Him.

Prayer 

Let us learn from the good examples in your Word, Lord, including these men of faith who used every means possible to bring this man to you to be healed. We cannot make men come to you spiritually, but let us endeavor to pray for their salvation and to speak to them and invite them earnestly to come to you for spiritual healing. Amen.
