Mark 7:24-30 1. His Popularity (24) - Even in an unclean land people flocked to Jesus.
- The Woman who came for help was not a Jew.
- The reason Jesus went to this area was for one woman.
2. Her Problem (25-26) - Her daugther was demon-posessed
- The woman was persistant
- It has been said that "failure is frequently the path of least persistence"
3. Her Persistence (27-28) - The reference to dogs is not as scavengers, but to a house dog
- She would not stop believing
- Her faith was evidenced in her humility.
4. The Point (29-30) - The answer of faith receives the blessing of God
- The blessing of God does not disappoint.
