The Miracle Beneath Our Need

What if the miracle you’re asking Jesus for isn’t the deepest miracle you need? In this powerful message from Luke 5:18–26, Pastor Chris Schansberg walks us through the story of the paralyzed man lowered through the roof—and the unexpected moment when Jesus addresses something deeper than physical healing. Before healing the man’s body, Jesus forgives his sins, revealing that our greatest need is not always the one we feel most urgently.This message invites us to look beneath our visible needs and trust Jesus with the deeper work of restoration He longs to do in our hearts. Healing in God’s Kingdom is never shallow—it brings forgiveness, freedom, and wholeness that transforms every area of life. When Jesus meets us, He doesn’t just fix what’s broken; He restores who we are.If you’re praying for breakthrough, relief, or healing, this message will encourage you to trust Jesus’ wisdom and timing. He sees what lies beneath your need—and He is faithful to meet it.When Jesus forgives, healing follows.And when healing comes, lives are changed.
