In chapters 8 and 9, Yahushua reminds us of the power of true faith—faith without doubt. Over and over, we see Him heal and deliver people, not because of ritual or position, but because of their belief. One of the most powerful examples is the woman who had been bleeding for twelve years. She thought, “If I only touch His cloak, I will be healed.” And Yahushua told her, “Take heart, daughter, your faith has healed you.” (Matthew 9:20–22). Even His own disciples struggled when a storm came upon them at sea, showing us that walking by faith and not by sight is a daily lesson. It’s the same reminder for us today—to trust Father’s promises even when our eyes only see the storm.
Yahushua also explains the cost of following Him: “Foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay His head.” (Matthew 8:20). He lived without the comfort of a home, traveling town to town to teach and preach. In many ways, this speaks to me personally. My family and I left behind the comforts of this world to walk a spiritual journey, often without a bed at night. It has tested my faith in ways I never expected, but it has also strengthened me. Following Yahushua isn’t just about confessing words—it’s about living His teachings daily, producing fruit through our actions, and allowing Father to transform our hearts. That means letting go of resentment, greed, and selfish desires so that our spirit can grow in alignment with His will. The struggle between flesh and spirit is real, but it’s also the process Father uses to shape us into who He calls us to be.
To me, walking by faith and not by sight means choosing to trust Father even when things look impossible, knowing His timing is perfect and often better than what I expect. The deeper I walk this journey, the more I see how real the spiritual realm is and how we are not of this world. I encourage you to meditate on these chapters and see how they apply in your own life—it will only strengthen your walk and draw you closer to Yahushua’s teachings.
