It’s important for us to understand that there are no limitations or boundaries drawn where God “categorizes” a sickness as being simple or difficult. The power of the Lord is present to heal now, even as you are reading this. And that healing power covers EVERY manner of infirmity, and every manner of disease!
This is Christianity’s finest hour! There will be no better time than this to awaken the Body of Christ and demonstrate to the spiritual seekers that the Jesus we speak of is not another dead prophet, but a resurrected Lord who is calling out to them to give them life while there is still time!
When I have a time of need, I march boldly into the throne room of God to obtain what I need. I turn the circumstances over to Him and say: “Father, no matter how I feel or how I look, no matter if sickness is knocking on my door, I know sickness is NOT the truth and will therefore not be my reality. I’m giving it to You, I thank You, and am here to boldly acknowledge and receive the healing You provided for me through what Your Son has done for me!”
It seems natural to me that if I have a living God who has revealed Himself to me, that I should expect Him to get involved with my life. It’s HIS idea to be among His people! He reveals Himself as a caring God who loves us, and we should expect to recognize signs of that in all that we do. Jesus hasn’t lost any power, love, or concern for people, so allow Him to be Himself in your life!
Do you see that when Jesus died on the cross He took all your sins and all your sicknesses? The Lord Jesus delivered you from the devil’s captivity and gave you freedom—freedom from any kind of bondage, sickness or disease!
Breathe the air of expectation! God has a lot to do in a little amount of time with us. Expect to see Him around the corner. Expect to hear Him and expect that He will speak through you when you open your mouth. We are all He has to work with, so expect Him to use you!
So often our circumstances shout, “This is impossible!” “It’s over!” “You’re wasting your time!” Sometimes your closest friends or even your spouse might say, “This is stupid, what are you doing? This faith stuff isn’t working!” I plead with you—at that moment when it’s very hard and you think you will fail and want to quit—BELIEVE in the Word of God and DON’T GIVE UP!!
It’s important to remember that God is happy to answer our prayers and wants to bless His children. And He wants us, His children, to rejoice in the same way a child rejoices when he receives something from his parents!
You did not choose to be born. You didn’t choose your family, your color or your looks, but you CAN choose your future. Jesus said, “I am the way.” He did NOT say, “I am one of the ways,” or, “In my opinion, I am the way.” He knows your design and exactly what you need. Your soul cannot find rest until it finds its Creator.
The kind of true and unselfish love that doesn’t think of itself is only possible when you see yourself already taken care of by your Lord. If you really believe you are totally provided for, then you can switch your thoughts off yourself and on to others!
