Pursuit of healing through fasting 11/14/2011
Isaiah 58 is an amazing chapter. It brings much encouragement when we choose fasting in addition to our prayers for healing. Isaiah 58 also sheds light on why healing does NOT become a reality in our lives. Verse 3 Why have we fasted,’ they say,‘and you have not seen it? Why have we humbled ourselves, and you have not noticed? Many times our perspective is not totally correct, we think we have truly humbled ourselves and are in complete alignment with God's will, but the truth is we are still miles apart. Our busy lifestyles have become very routine and it is generally quite an inconvenience for us to consider changes even to accommodate prayer with fasting. God wants us to stop oppressing & mistreating others, share our resources with people in need, stop the malicious talk, pointing finger and accusing others, When we cease from our wicked ways God is ready to bring healing and blessings to us. Verse 8 Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard. Today would be a great day to repent, forgive and live your Christian life in word and deed! Add Comment Jesus still heals today 11/07/2011
Mark 5:24Jesus went with Jairus, and all the people followed, crowding around him. 25A woman in the crowd had suffered for twelve years with constant bleeding. 26She had suffered a great deal from many doctors, and over the years she had spent everything she had to pay them, but she had gotten no better. In fact, she had gotten worse. 27She had heard about Jesus, so she came up behind him through the crowd and touched his robe. 28For she thought to herself, “If I can just touch his robe, I will be healed.” 29Immediately the bleeding stopped, and she could feel in her body that she had been healed of her terrible condition. 30Jesus realized at once that healing power had gone out from him, so he turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my robe?" 31His disciples said to him, “Look at this crowd pressing around you. How can you ask, ‘Who touched me?’” 32But he kept on looking around to see who had done it. 33Then the frightened woman, trembling at the realization of what had happened to her, came and fell to her knees in front of him and told him what she had done. 34And he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace. Your suffering is over.” This is an amazing account of one woman's faith. This account can truly be an encouragement to us in our search for healing, we have no need to wait twelve long years suffering through procedure after procedure until our money is all gone. Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. If Jesus is the same today as He was when this gal got healed why not let her testimony inspire you to reach out to Jesus. You may wonder why you waited so long. The new blog! 08/04/2011
