“The Three Cheers of Jesus”

Many people live their lives full of despair and hopelessness.  They are missing out on the joy of the Lord.  This is probably true for most of us at some time or another.  But Jesus provides what we need to live life abundantly.  This morning, let’s consider three times when Jesus told people to “Be of good cheer!”

1. The Cheer of Christ’s Forgiveness   (Matthew 9:1-8)
2. The Cheer of Christ’s Presence   (Mark 6:47-51)
3. The Cheer of Christ’s Victory   (John 16:33)
