I LOVE "Grace Inspirations" by Joseph Prince for today!
JESUS IS WILLING, BE HEALED!
Matthew 8:3 Then Jesus put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be
cleansed.”…
Do you know that it is God’s will for you to be healed? In fact, Jesus
always healed the sick who came to Him. The blind, lame, maimed, mute, deaf and
demon-possessed—He healed them all! (Matthew 8:16)
The Bible says that he who has seen Jesus has seen the Father. (John
14:9) You want to see what God is like? Look at Jesus! He never gave sickness
to anybody. You never find Jesus looking at a person, a fine specimen of a man,
and saying, “Come here. You are too healthy. Receive some leprosy!” In fact,
when a leper came to Him for healing, Jesus, full of compassion, told the
leper, “I am willing; be cleansed.”
Unfortunately, there are some Christians who say, “It is God’s will for
me to be sick. God has some purpose, some mysterious purpose for my situation.
It is all part of His divine plan and we shall all know in the sweet by and by,
the reason why!” But these same people go to their doctors to get well. They
take their medication and rest. Why do they do that if they really believe that
God wants them sick? Doesn’t make sense, does it?
Come on, what makes perfect sense is this: God wants you well. He wants
you whole. His will is for you to be healed! In fact, He is so willing that He
took all your sicknesses and diseases upon His own body, so that you don’t have
to suffer them today! He allowed Himself to be beaten and scourged, so that by
His scourging—by His stripes—you are healed! (Isaiah 53:5) Since He has already
suffered the sickness on your behalf, why should you suffer it today?
So my friend, if you are sick, know that God did not give you the
disease. Read every healing miracle that Jesus did in the Gospels and see how
Jesus is the Lord who heals you. (Exodus 15:26) Hear His gracious words, “I am
willing, be healed,” and know that they are as much for you today as they were
for the leper!
Refuse to let anyone steal from you what God has so freely given! Don't argue with those who do not believe! Simply move on and continue to speak God's Word and Will over your own body, and pray for laborers to reach those who disagree! AMEN! Here is Hillsong with "Lost Are Found":
Shalom in Him!
