Summary: Jesus encounters a woman with uncommon faith and He provides her with an uncommon reward.
“Amazing Faith in God’s Provision”
In this passage, Jesus is approached by a woman who is in a desperate situation. She needs something in her life. She comes to the Lord and as she does, she is not asking for the “whole meal,” she is just asking for the “crumbs.” She is just asking Jesus to somehow move in her situation. As she does, we see:
I. A Desperate Request (7:25-26).
A. She Came
B. She Cried
C. She Called
II. A Continuing Resolve (7:27-28).
She overcame multiple barriers to ask Jesus for help, the barriers of:
A. Race
B. Religion
C. Rejection
III. An Uncommon Reward (7:29-30).
A. Jesus Responded to her faith.
B. Jesus Rewarded her faith.
