Matthew 8: 1-4
Jesus' healing and miracle power did not end with the book of Revelations but we keep looking for it in the wrong thing. God can change your life in an instant but we'll still look the same on the outside. His healing works from the inside out. Healing is part of God's divine plan. Just because we have disease does not mean that He's not in the healing business. There is no such thing as "too hard for God." By the act of disobedience, we lost our connection and our health. Your disease might not bad enough for you to go to the hospital but you're still sick. The disease exists. But, God set forth a purpose and plan to make us well again. He wants us to be well and healthy. It doesn't mean your physical body will be free from illness. God heals your soul. We think we can work outside of God's plan and still be well. God wants us to be well and healthy, but he also wants us to walk in the way of the Lord. His divine plan of healing calls for obedience to Him and the deliverance of his message. When you're obedient go God, you're first call is to Him. You trust and believe He can heal you. God also needed someone to deliver his message. You cannot be a witness until you're doing right yourself. An unhealthy person cannot heal and unhealthy world. You have to send the right prescription for the right diagnosis. God needed somebody, so he sent Jesus. He needed a lamb without a spot or record. The man with leprosy came in the confidence of, "If could just get to Jesus." He knew he was unclean but he had confidence to know that the Lord will deliver. The man with leprosy also came in humility saying "Lord if you will..." Have confidence and humility. He also came reverence. He came to worship and he wanted to worship Him. Don't stop worshipping the Lord. You don't have to wait until the battle is over because God will deliver. He's willing and He's able.

Luke 1: 26-38
The Holy Spirit is the third part of the trinity. It is the force that provides the power to lead, guided, and direct. The power by which believers come to know that Jesus is Lord and it gives eyes to our faith. It comes from the Father. It resides in the Son. God controls the Holy Spirit. No one can give it to you. No one can receive the it except it come from God. The Holy Spirit is a gift. You have to ask for it. It is a free gift that comes directly from God to you. When the angel appeared before Mary, he did not bring the Holy Spirit, he just announced it. God can find you highly favored. It doesn't matter where you were born. It doesn't matter who your parents are. With the gift of the Holy Spirit, you can be highly favored. You cannot define it, but you'll know it when you feel it. It is the power for the powerless. Whatever you need, God will give it to you. He's able. God's gifts are always with us. If you need the gift of the Holy Spirit, ask for it, pray for it. Our obedience is directly related to our growth. |
