    Faith That Refuses To Give Up

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 8, 2025
     | 887 views

    Faith is not just belief—it is a persistent, humble, bold, and expectant attitude that refuses to give up. The Canaanite woman’s story shows that even when you're not qualified, faith can qualify you.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Matthew 15:21-28 Supporting Texts: Hebrews 11:6, Mark 11:24, Luke 18:1–8, James 1:6, Romans 4:20–21 INTRODUCTION: There are seasons in life when everything seems to be working against us.

    In conversations with people there is one thing I hear too often, and that is: “Boy, the Church sure is in a sad state these days.” When I read the scriptures I sense that I am truly reading about God’s grace. Grace is God’s gift to us. Grace is, then,

    Looking at some of the things we can create with our mouths.

    Out of the mouth When is a parable not a parable? That question always comes to my mind when I read today’s passage from Matthew’s Gospel. We are told that Peter said to Jesus “Explain the parable to us”. But it does not matter how many times I read the passage, I cannot find a parable. Instead, I ...read more

    There is much we can learn from this Canaanite mother. She came to Jesus for healing of her daughter who was demon-possessed. She would not take "no" for an answer. Jesus commended and rewarded her great faith.

    WORTHY TO BE CALLED “MOTHER” “Then Jesus went out from there and departed to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And behold, a woman of Canaan came from that region and cried out to Him, saying, ‘Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David!

    What is your definition of great faith? Of what does such faith consist? We can study what the Lord called great faith for the answer.

    The Canaanite woman persistently keeps praying and coming to Jesus for help for her daughter. Jesus answers.

    A look at some of the crumbs that fell from the Master’s table.

    He was her last hope. She had spent months going from doctor to doctor, specialist to specialist only to be told the same thing, “I can’t do anything, I’m sorry.” She had tried every kind of alternative medicines, herbs, health food and vitamins and none of it worked.

    The secret of God’s blessings is to lie low at the feet of Jesus and cry our for mercy! If all you ask for is crumbs off the table, how can God refuse?

    Friends if you listened carefully to the gospel story, it appears as though Jesus was not very inclined to heal the daughter of the Syro-Phoenician woman who came begging him for a miracle. It also seemed as though Jesus had enough and just wanted to get away because scripture tells us that he ...read more

    There are only two people in the Bible that were said to have "GREAT FAITH" by Jesus. One was the Centurian and the other was this woman.
