Forgiveness of sin the greatest reward for faith

“Seeing their faith he said, 'My friend, your sins are forgiven you.” Luke 5:20

It is important to note that the first words the Lord spoke to the paralysed man in return for his faith and the faith of his companions were words of forgiveness and not of healing. Healing followed forgiveness of sin, and not the other way round. Let us too, seek forgiveness of sins from the Lord by means of our faith before seeking any other miracles from Him.
