Let the outsiders be on the outside, and by denying outsiders, doubt will die, mockery will be denied, and above all ridicule will not locate you. Jesus, with all the power in Him, in His attempt to bring forth Jarius\u00d5s daughter back from death to life, made some moves before He did. The first thing that Jesus did was to encourage the family not to be afraid, but believe with a positive statement saying, \u00d2it is well.\u00d3 Secondly, He told them that their daughter had only went to sleep and not unto death so that they should stop weeping. The first and second moves were to address the family from the inside because when the inside was settled, then the outside could be dealt with by putting out the outside. Jesus did not address the outside <i>until<\/i> He had taken care of the inside. While Jesus was taking care of the inside, the outside was in operation. <b><i>Luke 8: 53, \u00d2And they ridiculed Him, knowing that she was dead.\u00d3 <\/i><\/b>&nbsp;The outsiders that were present ridiculed Jesus thinking it would be impossible for Him to raise Jarius\u00d5s daughter back to life. Ridicule is from the outside; it is an agent of discouragement. As an agent of discouragement, ridicule will bring forth discouragement to stop exercising faith, which would cause the loss of faith. Jesus did not hesitate He needed to settle the outside since the inside had been addressed, the bible recorded in <b><i>Luke 8:54, \u00d2\u00c9He put them all outside, took her by the hand and called, saying, \u00d2Little girl, arise, \u00d2 55 Then her spirit returned, and she arose immediately. And He commanded that she be given something to eat.\u00d3\u00d3 <\/i><\/b>Jesus did not allow the surrounding people or the outsiders deny the miracle for Jairus\u00d5s daughter. Just as Jesus put all agents of mockery and ridicule out in the case of Jarius\u00d5s daughter, so He will do on your behalf. All that belongs unto you will return to you and your testimony will glorify God. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NO TO OUTSIDERS< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> Luke 8: 49-56 &nbsp; All things that do not represent you, that are not the things of God, that are outside of your beliefs are outsiders to you and they should all be considered and treated as an outsiders.
