JESUS STILL HEALS THE SICK
"But seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness {seek Him and live completely and always according to His will, above ALL else, priority number one, before anything else} and all these things shall be added unto you".
Matthew 6:33 power phrased
In all we do, we must continuously and always seek the Kingdom of God and God's righteousness FIRST, it must always be our number one priority. The word of God declares that then all things will be added on to you, however if you are indeed continuously and always seeking God's kingdom and God's righteousness first, you will never be focussed on things but you are always focussed on God. The enemy will try and distort your focus, and will have you focus on your problem, your sickness, so guard your focus.
When our Lord and Saviour died on the cross, he did not just crucify all our sin, but also our sicknesses and deceases. He was chastised for our peace, bruised for our iniquities, wounded for our transgressions, crucified for our sin and by His stripes on his back we are healed. (Isaiah 53: 5) Just note what a mighty God we serve as this was written (foretold) by the prophet Isaiah about 681 years before the birth of Jesus Christ. (another reference you'll find in 1 Peter 2: 24)
The Lord knows your need before it becomes your need, deliverance (salvation) comes by faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and giving our life to Him. Healing is also claimed by faith.
Faith, however is always taken too lightly ;
Jesus teaches us 'if we only had faith the size of a mustard seed {the smallest seed in that period in that area} Matthew 17: 17-19 reads: "Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me. And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him; and the child was CURED from that very hour: Then came the disciples to Jesus apart; and said, Why could not we cast him out?"
"And Jesus answered unto them,
Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith
as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to
yonder place; and it shall remove; AND NOTHING SHALL BE IMPOSSIBLE UNTO
YOU."
(Mat 17: 20)
In Luke 17:6 the Lord answered, "If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you."
Faith is truly believing without reasoning in your mind, hence Jesus teaches us to have 'childlike faith' trusting God completely. Surrendering your life to Jesus Christ, giving your life to Jesus Christ also means trusting the Lord completely for everything. Luke 8:48 emphasises faith for healing; "Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole, go in peace."
Hebrews 11: 5-6 "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him".
God's divine touch upon a broken body or mind is not merely a New Testament phenomenon from the days of the apostles and the Early Church . His ability to perform the miraculous is not and never has been restricted to a certain time frame in church history. God is no respecter of persons, for Hebrews 13:8 declares: "Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday, today, and forever."
He healed the sick then, He heals the sick today and He will heal the sick forever.
Healing often occurs when the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ is amongst a congregation of worshipping believers, but also often occurs individually.
God is a healing God, and His very presence births the hope of healing, deliverance, and restoration. Chronicled in every book of the Bible is God's power to heal. The Bible is the believer's handbook for living, and only through its sacred pages can we discover the nature and character of God, along with the benefits and blessings that belong to you and me as His children.
While waiting for your healing, do not be discouraged. God is with you.
"Have I not commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed, for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest" (Joshua 1:9).
You can trust in the God of miracles today!
His Word says, "For I am the LORD that healeth thee" (Exodus 15:26).
We have seen people healed from terrible sicknesses and deceases, we have seen the deaf hear and the blind see and miracles of healing that amaze medical science. NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE with God! What He has done for others He can do for you!
