Is Jesus all you Need - or Not?

I had heard a brief comment from someone that Jesus appeared to be useless. This person wasn't a Christian and for him Jesus is pretty much useless. I couldn't help him but this morning I had a sense that many Christians think Jesus is pretty much useless in "real" life.

There are Professing Christians who say many of the right things. Good people. Religious people.
God has saved them from their sins. That's all good. BUT, other than that he is useless. He is useless to do anything else for them. A form of Christianity but denying the power thereof.

• Healing
• Finance
• Protection from Evil
• Wisdom
• Miracles
• Provision
• Peace
• Freedom from fear
• Understanding
• Discernment
• Memory of Scripture
• Courage
• Protection from Enemies

And a hundred other things we need in our lives that many professing Christians never look to Jesus for. They look to the world, to doctors, professionals, Psychiatrists, Professors and well you see the list. Who do you look to when the going gets tough.

Is your God useless? Mine isn't. By the way, I challenge anyone who reads this to take the list and see if in fact the Word of God promises each and every one of these things to those who ask.

I already did. It does.

How about making your Jesus a little more useful to your people. He is Able.
