I grew up believing that sometimes God heals and sometimes He
doesn’t, and we never knew why. However I after I married Micah, he
showed me in the Bible that Jesus ALWAYS healed those that had faith to
receive. As Jesus says countless times, “Your faith has made you whole”
or like in Matthew 9:29: “Then He touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith let it be to you.”
Jesus
also said that He came to do the work of His Father (John 4:34), which
means that it is God’s will that everyone be healed. (Not to mention a
very VERY important scripture; 1 Peter 2:24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed.)
Before
I say anything else I want to say that it is imperative that you read
your Bible, pray, and listen to preachers of faith! It is the way to
have a personal relationship with God, and it helps you know who you are
in Christ – as well as faith comes by hearing the Word of God (Romans 10:17)
Now
that I have that established; I feel like God has talked to me lately
on the matter of healing. So I want to share it with you!
My
husband once said that if you have a million dollars in the bank but
went around saying you are broke, it doesn’t change that fact that you
are a millionaire (or, not broke).
Well
the same thing goes for healing. God already did all He is going to do
for our healing (He sent His Son to die on the cross), and Jesus already
did all He is going to do for our healing (He died on the cross).
Therefore it is up to US to KNOW that we are healed. It is a FACT. The
fact does not change no matter how much we do/don’t read our Bible,
pray, or listen to CD’s.
Jesus
came over 2000 years ago and bore our sickness, pain, and disease so it
has already happened! He is not going to do it, He already did it! You
are ALREADY healed!
Example:
It is a FACT that 1+3=4. That fact does not change no matter how much
we do/don’t study math. You don’t have to have faith that 1+3=4, it is a
fact whether you have faith or not.
The
same goes for healing! Just because the devil comes along and lies by
trying to put sickness on us, does not mean that we are not healed. Are
we going to believe God’s truth or the devil’s lie?
There
needs to come a time where we as Christians arrive at the knowledge of
healing and move on to other things that God wants to show us. Not stay
in a roller coaster of healing and sickness. We are not as effective as
God wants us to be when we are sick and can’t help or be a blessing to
those around us. (I am also preaching to the choir right now)
So
the next time the devil tries to lie to you and tell you that you have
to go read your Bible more, pray more, or listen to more CD’s know that
he is trying to make you feel unworthy to immediately receive what God
has already given you through grace! It is not for us to be worthy
enough, it is for us to have through GRACE!
So
go! Read your Bible, pray, and listen to preaching CD’s because you
want to have a close fellowship with our Father God and know who you are
in Christ! Not because you feel unworthy to receive immediate healing
no matter the circumstance! It is because of Grace!
