Today's "Every Day With Jesus" by Andrew Womack is very good!
You Must Receive
And ought not this woman, being a
daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these
eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath
day? Luke 13:16
This woman’s sickness was the
work of Satan—not the work of God.
Jesus said it
had bound her,
not blessed her,
for eighteen years. The teaching that
says sickness is actually a
blessing in disguise because the
Lord is working His plan in someone’s life is not found in
Scripture. As Acts 10:38 says, Jesus “went
about doing good,
and healing all
that were
oppressed of the devil.” People
are oppressed of the devil, not God.
There are seventeen times in the
Gospels when Jesus healed all of the sick that were present.
There are forty-seven other times when He healed one or two people
at a time. Nowhere do we find Jesus
refusing to heal
anyone. He said
He could do nothing of Himself, but only what
He saw the Father do. His words and actions are proof
enough that it is always God’s will to heal!
It is God’s will that no one
should perish, but many do because of their unbelief. Likewise, it
is God’s will that we all be healed, but not
all are healed
because of failure
to believe. It
is a
mistake to assume whatever God
wills, will automatically come to pass, and that we don’t play a
part in receiving from God.
In Hebrews 3:18-19 the children
of Israel did not enter into God’s rest
(salvation, which includes
physical healing) because of their unbelief. This
is just after verse twelve says,
“Take heed, brethren, lest there
be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from
the living God.” The Holy Spirit was talking to “brethren.” That
means you and me.
Today you must believe His Word
with regard to healing in order to receive the divine
health and healing He wants you to have.
AMEN! Everything that God has promised and has provided for us must be BELIEVED and RECEIVED in order for US to walk in the blessed results of it! Get busy today finding our just what belongs to you as a born again child of the Living God! Now meditate on that until you believe it, and then EXPECT it! Here is Hillsong UNITED with "Shadow Step":
Shalom in Him!
