Jesus’ sinless life given for us, His blood shed for our sins, His body broken that our bodies might be restored, His death in poverty that we might find the riches of eternal life—take some time to remember all that Christ has done for you in his death, burial and resurrection!
Jesus paid the price for our sin and sickness and disease on the cross. So it’s not, “I’m GOING to be healed,” but rather, “I am ALREADY healed! Not because I feel healed or look healed, but because the Word of God is absolutely true and more powerful than however I may feel or look!”
Jesus said that if He did not do the works of His Father, then not to believe in Him (John 10:37). That is strong language that must be backed up by the supernatural hand of God. But you too can boldly say the same thing, because as the Father was with Jesus, now Jesus is with you (1John 4:17). The mission that our Father sent Jesus on is the same mission that Jesus has sent you on!
When Jairus’ daughter died while Jesus was delayed, Jairus was told by Jesus to “only believe,” that his daughter will live. Death may be final, but NOTHING is “too late” when Jesus is with you! Keeping control of our emotions is important. I believe Jesus was saying to Jairus: “Just stay open to your miracle. Do not shut down. I am bigger than any bad report!”
Believe in yourself! You can’t be effective in the world until you can be good to yourself. Look in the mirror and tell the person you see that you are precious and valuable to God. You can’t truly love others with God’s love until you love yourself!
If Jesus lives in you, you have a miracle inside you! All His purpose and power is now able to grow and develop in you, as you get to know Him through spending time with Him in prayer and reading His Word!
This is the Church’s finest hour! If Jesus is alive as we proclaim, then He has the power to change men and answer prayer. He has the power to establish nations and create peace. He has the power to produce wealth and heal the sick. Where is that power? It is in us!
Dead religion and sin consciousness have created an inferiority complex in people, but God loves you and has no intention of putting you down. His great plan is to lift you up out of condemnation and give you a purpose!
What do you do when the devil comes to offer you a reality that is not in God’s Word? You respond with the TRUTH of God’s Word and declare, “IT IS WRITTEN!” When Jesus spoke, sickness, disease, poverty and affliction would flee. You and I have the same authority as Jesus. When we speak, things happen!
How do we find peace in the midst of the chaos in our world today? Train your thoughts on JESUS! Change what you’re saying to what GOD says! Scripture is clear, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV).
