Episode Synopsis

In Matthew 17:14–16, a desperate father kneels before Jesus, crying out for his suffering son. He had already gone to the disciples, but they couldn’t help. This story isn’t about their failure—it’s about a greater truth: there are battles no man can fight for us, and wounds no person can heal. Only Jesus can.So often, we lean on the people around us—our mentors, pastors, friends, and community. And while those are good and God-given, they can’t take the place of Christ. When the fire feels too hot, when the waters rise too high, when the weight feels unbearable—there’s only one place to turn.In today’s devotional, we’ll uncover:Why even faithful people can’t always meet your deepest needsThe difference between encouragement and true deliveranceHow to recognize when it’s time to stop asking others and start crying out to JesusA simple challenge to bring your struggles directly to Him todayDon’t miss this reminder: you don’t need a perfect plan, the right words, or even someone else to intercede on your behalf. What you need is the presence of the Savior. Because at the end of the day—only Jesus can.
