PICK UP YOU MAT

1 Some time later, Jesus went up to Jerusalem for one of the Jewish festivals. 2 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool, which in Aramaic is called Bethesda[a] and which is surrounded by five covered colonnades. 3 Here a great number of disabled people used to lie—the blind, the lame, the paralyzed. [4] [b] 5 One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?”
7 “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me.” 
Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.” 9 At once the man was cured; he picked up his
8mat and walked.

The day on which this took place was a Sabbath, 10 and so the Jewish leaders said to the man who had been healed, “It is the Sabbath; the law forbids you to carry your mat.”

11 But he replied, “The man who made me well said to me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk.’ ”

let me go straight to the word, we are hearing of aman who was sick for him to be healed he have to wait for water to be starred so that he enter into a pool but the was a lot of people who were waiting , but this man was highly favoured the bible  says jesus asked him do you want to be healed? and he was told to pic his mat and go

brothers and sister let me tell you that it is about time for your prosperuty Jesus is asking do you want to be promoted,do you want to be healed do you want a wedding? pick up you mat!  the problem with us is that we wnt to dwell in mat what does this mean? the bible says when we pray we must believe that we have recieve it and so we shall have it.there are two differents word here recieve and have  

let me give you an example  when my mom send me cash i will recieve  the message in my phone and immediatly i will start drawing the budget ,start to plan what to do with cash why am i doing this because i have recieve  a massage from Absa but  i dnt  have the cash. so this is what God is expecting us to do, this is to pic up the mat(to pic up a mat ios to believe that you already have what you dnt have)

now when we go back to the story for this man to be healed he has to go to the pool but  because his time has come conditions changed in order to favour him, it was hard for him to enter into pool because there weremany people

my Jesus) i don't care how many people are in need of that position, i don't mind how many people are saying it is hard to get married, i don't care how many people are agaist you  all am saying to you pick up your mat and start to walk tall become excited  when they ask you what happened tell them my Jesus told me to pic up my mat    

 i dnt know Zulu well but (ba sheshe ba hleka) they thought you gonna die in that situation hey not this year this is the year of prosperity i believe am talking to somebody if you read the bible very well you will realise that the number 12 appers in the bible from genesis to revelation!
 
now let  me go back to the passage  in verse 10 the man was told that it was agaist the law to pic your mat and but the man replied the man who made me well told me to do so, hey let me bring this to your attension we are serving God who is an opposer when they say it is impossible he says it is possible when they say you are poor he says Jesus came poor so that through him we become rich! people who are against you will be amased when things are going your way, some will b admitted in hospital gape some of high blood pressure is not natural ke jelousy the way God is gonna bless you the are gonna ask themselves how does it happened ?it is simple just pick up your mat have faith in God remember there is surely nothing that pleases God if not FAITH AMEN

i have to say i salute the day i got lost when googling "cc ravele" the former yotv presenter...i landed here at TVSA and met these beautiful people, whom in the first place i thot they were just a bunch of ladies and guys who has too much time on their hands, TODAY i have to say i feel so lucky to be surrounded by your presence.
 whenever i feel the burden is too much for me to bear, i will remember to cust them UNTO HIM, 
HE who said i am the light and the way, come to those who are hungry,burdened, thirsty... guys i am really feeling his presence.. oh Lord..

 brethern please pray together with me i will be preaching on friday morning for three department of treasury,let God help  

am also getting bless as i read your comments and more revelation just cometh

this is what God is sayiing it won't help nothing to exersice our faith(pick up our mat) when we don't chande the way we speak

how in the book of Genesis chapt 1 the bible says God saw darkness  but the bible says he said 'let it be light 
this is a principle that if what you see is not what you want don't say what yu see say what you want so that you can get what you have said. is in not that the bible  says life and death is in the power of the tougue we get what we say so we must be very careful of what we say

so don't pick up your mat while your words are agaist it becaus it will just be a waste of time
i declae that you are all blessed in Jesus mighty name and NO WHITCH,SATANIST,CAN BE AGAIINST IT!
thax bukho for correcting me love other language

"And Jesus say, pick up Ur mat"  ohh what inspiration this is. Jesus could have said "let me pick up your mat, or i will pick ur mat up" but nooo dearly beloved brothers and sisters he says "pick up ur mat". For he trust us, he trust in our capabilities. all the obstacles we always put before ourselves, Jesus sees through them.

I didnt know there was also worship on TVSA. Great!!! 
He is an amazing God. I am here now because of His mercy. His love surpases all understanding, even mine. I think of his Greatness and forgiveness and get filled with such joy. I live for his word, ONLY. In Him I find peace and Joy. and I praise Him everyday for knowing Him. And I know He is still working on me and he will never abondon the great works of His Holy hands.

He says" I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you." Matthew 17: 20.

Your faith will heal you as it has healed me. 

Stay blessed, all you guys.

Na ke bo-mang mose lelibohong,

Ba leseli, ba khanya,
Ba meqhaka lihlohong?
Bohang seema, ha ba hlaha ka khoro,
Jerusalema e mocha,
Pina tsa bona tse tsoisoang ke nyakallo;
Ke mali a konyana.

Keba tsoile tsileng tsa manyala,
Ho boleng ha lebitla la sebe;
Joale, ha ba hloekile,
Ke mali a Konyana.
Bohang seema, ha ba hlaha ka khoro,...
