Faith in Christ is Great!

Text: Matthew 15:21-28 (EHV)

Jesus left that place and withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon. 22There a Canaanite woman from that territory came and kept cryingout, “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David! A demon is severely tormenting mydaughter! 23But he did notanswer her a word. His disciples came and pleaded, “Send her away, because shekeeps crying out after us.” 24He answered, “I was sent only to thelost sheep of the house of Israel.” 25Butshe came and knelt in front of him, saying, “Lord, help me.” 26Heanswered her, “It is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it totheir little dogs.” 27“Yes, Lord,” she said, “yet theirlittle dogs also eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table.” 28ThenJesus answered her, “Woman, your faith is great! Itwill be done for you, just as you desire.” And her daughter was healed at thatvery hour.
