Day 28 – FOLLOW JESUS 365: YEAR OF FAITH IN ACTION

✨ THEME:

God’s Grace and Healing Are for Everyone, No Matter Their Condition
(The Samaritan Leper)

📜 SCRIPTURE FOCUS:

Luke 17:11-19

💬 MESSAGE SUMMARY

As Jesus traveled toward Jerusalem, ten lepers cried out for mercy. He told them to go show themselves to the priests – and as they walked, they were cleansed. Only one, a Samaritan (a group despised by Jews), returned to give thanks and worship God. Jesus declared him fully made well – not just in body, but in spirit – highlighting that faith brings complete restoration. This passage shows God’s grace and healing are universal, available to all who come to Him in faith, regardless of social status, ethnicity, or condition.

🗣️ ELLEN G. WHITE QUOTATION

“Christ came to save the chief of sinners. He came to heal the most malignant diseases of the soul. He came to give sight to the blind, hearing to the deaf, strength to the paralytic, cleansing to the leper. He came to quicken the dead in trespasses and sins. The worse the case, the greater the need of His power to save. No soul is so sinful but that it may find pardon and peace in Him who came to save sinners.”
