There are times in life when we all need help!
2. The question is, where do you run when life throws you a curveball and suddenly you’re faced with a problem too great for you to handle on your own?
3. Tonight, we will discover what it means to place our hope in Jesus when life overwhelms us.

Matthew 9:18-26

Context
1. In Matthew 8-9, Jesus was in the northern end of the Sea of Galilee by His town of Capernaum.
2. He had just finished His Sermon on the Mount in which He told the people of Israel that to enter the kingdom of heaven, they must be transformed in the inner man, a transformation that happens when a person has placed his or her faith in Jesus Christ for salvation.
3. After the Sermon on the Mount, we are told that the crowds were amazed by His teaching because “He was teaching them as one having authority, and not as their scribes”. (7:29)
4. The events that unfolded next, demonstrated Jesus’ power and authority. He had spoken as one having authority, now Jesus revealed His power and authority over all of creation in Matthew 8-9.
5. There are ten miracles recorded in these chapters, each with powerful applications for our lives. We will focus on the seventh and eighth miracles this evening.

I. Bring All Your Burdens to Jesus (18-22)

• When we come to this section of Matthew 9, it’s important to note that Matthew provided a condensed version of the events described here.
• Both miracles are also recounted in Mark and Luke, and each of them provided more details to help fill in the blanks. So, I will refer to the other Gospels in our study tonight.

A. Don’t let anyone or anything get in your way
1. According to Mark and Luke, the synagogue official or ruler was named Jairus. (Mark 5:22)
a. As a synagogue ruler, he was in charge of scheduling all events and teachers at the local synagogue.
b. He wasn’t a teacher, but the position came with great honor and recognition.
c. Jairus would have heard about Jesus, His teachings, miracles, and what people thought of Him, including the negative opinions of the scribes and Pharisees.
2. We’re also told that the apple of Jairus’s eye was his twelve-year-old daughter, his only daughter! (Luke 8:42)
a. It appears that she grew up like most girls, without any major medical issues.
b. Then one day, it all changed. The Bible doesn’t state what she came down with, only that she was very sick and on the verge of death.
c. I’m sure, like any parent, he tried everything to make his little girl well, but nothing worked.
3. At this moment of crisis with time running out, Jairus, the honored and respected synagogue ruler, did not think about his status in the community.
a. Nor did he care about the opinions of the scribes and Pharisees and what it might mean if he asked Jesus for help.
b. No pride. No ego. All he cared about was the apple of his eye, his one and only little girl, so he frantically went looking for Jesus!

APPL – When the bottom falls out and your life takes an unexpected turn, don’t let anyone or anything get in the way of running to Jesus. Bring all your burdens to Jesus.

ILUS – A man’s response after the Sunday Night Service

4. Notice Jairus’s posture when he came to Jesus. (18)
a. Jairus not only asked Jesus to come to his home and lay His hand on her so that she would live, he bowed down before Jesus.
b. This wasn’t only a sign of submission, it was a posture of worship, for that was what Jairus, the synagogue official was doing. As he pleaded with Jesus to come with him, he worshipped Jesus.
c. Now the Jews rightly believed and taught that worship is reserved for God alone. Even Jesus taught that only God is worthy of worship.
