In the Gospel of Mark, when Jairus, a synagogue leader, learns that his daughter has died, Jesus responds to him with the words, "Do not fear; only believe" (Mark 5:36, ESV). This statement emphasizes faith and trust in God, even in the face of despair and seemingly hopeless situations.
This moment occurs just before Jesus goes to Jairus's home to raise his daughter from the dead, demonstrating His power over death and His ability to bring hope in dire circumstances. The message is one of reassurance, encouraging Jairus to maintain his faith despite the tragic news.
