This week, Jesus, Peter, James, and John come down off the mountain into chaos. The scribes are mocking the disciples who stayed behind because they could not cast out a demon in a demon possessed young man. The young man’s father brought his son to Jesus to be healed and the disciples could not cast out the demon. You can imagine the frustration, fear, and confusion taking places….especially with the scribes looking for a reason to discredit Jesus and His disciples. However, God was not surprised by any of it! His plan was unfolding and Jesus was about to educate the disciples that 1) you cannot live on your past accomplishments and 2) you must ALWAYS depend on Yahweh to fight your battles!!!
