About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"HEAL SOMEONE TODAY" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
HEAL SOMEONE TODAY
EVERY TIME I READ ABOUT HEALING IN THE BIBLE IT MAKES ME WANT TO WRITE SOMETHING ABOUT IT. I KNOW I MIGHT TOUCH ON THE SAME THING SOMETIMES BUT PLEASE JUST STICK WITH ME. THERE JUST MIGHT BE SOMEONE OUT THERE THAT REALLY NEEDS TO HEAR THIS OR HAS JUST BECOME A FRIEND OF MINE ON FACEBOOK. THANK YOU.
A LOT OF CHRISTIANS END MOST OF THEIR PRAYERS WITH "IF IT BE THY WILL". THIS IS WHETHER THEY ARE PRAYING FOR HEALING, FINANCIAL HELP OR A JOB THEY HAVE APPLIED FOR. AS FOR THE JOB, I CAN SEE PRAYING THIS WAY BECAUSE THE JOB JUST MIGHT NOT BE THE JOB GOD WANTS YOU TO HAVE. THE DEAL IS, WILL YOU ACCEPT HIS ANSWER IF HE SAYS NO? JUST DON'T PUT HIM IN A BOX AND SAY "SHOULD I TAKE THIS JOB OR THAT JOB". HE MIGHT NOT WANT YOU TO HAVE EITHER ONE.
NOW AS FOR HEALING, THIS IS A DIFFERENT MATTER. WHY WOULD YOU ASK GOD IF IT IS HIS WILL TO HEAL YOU OR SOMEONE ELSE IF IT IS ALREADY HIS WILL? WE ALL KNOW IT IS GOD'S WILL THAT EVERYONE BE HEALED. WE KNOW THIS BY THE WAY JESUS WENT ABOUT HEALING EVERYONE HE CAME IN CONTACT WITH AND TELLING US THAT HE WAS DOING THE WILL OF HIS FATHER. WITH THIS IN MIND, LOOK WHAT HE SAYS IN JOHN 5:30 "I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me." THIS SHOWS IT HAS TO BE GOD'S WILL TO HEAL.
THE NEXT THING IS THAT HE TOLD US TO HEAL THE SICK. I KNOW WE CAN'T HEAL ON OUR OWN BUT ONLY THROUGH JESUS BUT HE DID TELL US TO DO IT. LOOK WHAT IT SAYS IN MATTHEW 10:7-8 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. HE IS NOT GOING TO DO IT FOR US BECAUSE HE GAVE US THIS POWER TO DO IT THROUGH HIS NAME.
LET'S LOOK AT SALVATION FOR A MOMENT. HAVE YOU EVER ASK GOD TO SAVE ANYONE? DID YOU ASK "IF IT IS YOUR WILL"? WE KNOW THAT GOD WANTS ALL OF US TO BE SAVED BUT GOD'S WILL DOES NOT ALWAYS COME TO PASS. THIS MIGHT SOUND CRAZY TO YOU BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE THINK GOD IS ABSOLUTE. THEY THINK THAT THE HURRICANES AND TORNADOES, OR ANY OTHER THING, IS HIS WILL. THIS IS JUST NOT TRUE. GOD WOULD NEVER PUT SOMETHING LIKE THIS ON US. SURE, HE LETS THEM HAPPEN BECAUSE WE ARE IN A FALLEN WORLD. BAD THINGS HAPPEN AND IT IS NOT BECAUSE OF GOD. IF YOU WANT TO BLAME SOMEONE, BLAME THE DEVIL. I CAN PROVE TO YOU THAT GOD'S WILL DOES NOT ALWAYS COME TO PASS. READ THE FOLLOWING VERSE....2ND PETER 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. HE IS NOT WILLING FOR ANYONE TO PERISH BUT WE KNOW THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE DO. THIS IS BECAUSE HE GAVE US A FREE WILL TO ACCEPT HIM OR REJECT HIM AND HE WILL NOT GO AGAINST OUR WILL.
NOW SINCE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT FREE WILLS, SOME PEOPLE JUST DON'T WANT TO BE HEALED. I KNOW THIS SOUNDS CRAZY BUT SOME PEOPLE LIKE ALL THE PITY AND ATTENTION THEY GET WHEN THEY SAY THEY ARE SICK. ALL WE CAN DO FOR THOSE FOLKS IS PRAY THAT THEIR EYES WILL BE OPENED TO THE TRUTH. IF YOU WANT SOMEONE HEALED, OR EVEN YOURSELF, LAY YOUR HANDS ON THEM OR YOURSELF AND CAST THAT SICKNESS OUT. THIS IS ONE OF JESUS'S COMMANDMENTS....MARK 16:17-18 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE POWER AND IT IS UP TO US TO USE IT. GO OUT AND HEAL SOMEONE TODAY.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
