Today's "Grace Inspirations" by Joseph Prince is an excellent instruction on how to obtain healing from the Word of God, and a revelation of why some people do not!
FEED ON JESUS AND LIVE
John 6:57 As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he
who feeds on Me will live because of Me.
Some time ago, I visited a friend of a church member who had cancer and
wanted healing. He was all ears, lapping and soaking up everything I shared
with him. Today, he worships with us in our church and is completely healed of
cancer.
I remember being at another man’s home at the invitation of his family
members. He too was suffering from cancer. When I entered his home, the man had
his television on. I started sharing Christ with him but he was not at all
interested in what I was saying. He continued watching the television program.
I knew then that his healing was a lost cause because faith for healing comes
by hearing God’s Word, not by watching television, reading newspapers or
listening to your favorite music.
Don’t get me wrong. I am not against these things, but they are not
going to heal you. When you are sick, what you want is God’s healing flowing in
your body. How does that happen?
One of the primary ways in which it happens is when you read your
Bible, soaking up everything on Jesus. Before you know it, His divine health
flows into your body, driving out every symptom of pain, sickness and disease.
Even your discouragement dissolves effortlessly. You find yourself encouraged,
refreshed and your darkness giving way to light. You see, there is no way you
can feed on Jesus through reading and hearing His Word, and still remain the
same. He said, “The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.”
(John 6:63)
My friend, God wants Jesus to be food for you. We feed on Christ by
seeing Him unveiled in the Word, by seeing and meditating on what the Holy
Spirit reveals of His beauty and glory, and His finished work at Calvary. That
is how we enjoy Jesus. It is like having a good meal. And when you do that,
Jesus Himself promises that “he who feeds on Me will live because of Me”!
AMEN! Dig deep into the Word of God and refuse to be moved by anything else! Whose report will YOU believe? I believe the report of the LORD! AMEN! Here is Hillsong with "Valentine":
Shalom in Him!
