Turn to Luke, please, this evening, book of Luke and the fifth chapter.

In Luke 5, Jesus was speaking.

In verse 12 and 13, you got some red letters, don't you?

Verse 13.

It came to pass when Jesus was in a certain city, verse 12, a man full of leprosy who

seeing Jesus fell on his face and besought him saying, Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.

We've been on a series for some weeks now called God's will to heal.

God's will to heal.

And this man is full of leprosy.

Now that means that he is considered terminal, hopeless, no cure, just a matter of days till he's gone.

And enduring all these symptoms.

But the reason he's in the book is because he did not just sit home and say, well, there's no use.

I've been to five doctors.

They all give me the same report.

I got a second, third, fourth, and ninth opinion.

And I've exhausted all the treatments, and I'm in the 47th stage of this.

And it's just, that's it.

No, he got out of the house.

Somebody said, got out of the house.

Got out of the house.

Made the trip.

And just came out on up to Jesus.
