Don't Forget Your Bed - Matthew Tuttle

In John 5, Jesus healed a man who had been crippled for 38 years and gave him a simple but powerful command: “Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.” (John 5:8, KJV) Why did Jesus tell him to carry the very bed that once carried him? In this message, we uncover a life-changing truth: Don’t forget your bed. Don’t forget where God found you, what He delivered you from, and the testimony of His transforming power in your life. Your “bed” represents: Your past struggles Your seasons of waiting The burdens Christ lifted The testimony of God’s grace When God changes your life, He doesn’t erase your story—He turns it into a witness for His glory. Key Verse: “Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.” — John 5:8 (KJV) In this sermon, you will learn: Why God wants you to remember your past How your testimony can strengthen others The importance of walking in your healing How God turns pain into purpose No matter what bed you’ve been lying on—fear, sin, addiction, disappointment, or hopelessness—Jesus still says today: Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. Be encouraged, and let your testimony point others to Christ. #DontForgetYourBed #ApostolicPreachings #MatthewTuttle
