HEALING AGENT(2)


TEXT : Jeremiah  8:22

 Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?

Today, we shall be looking at steps on how you can rise through the ladder of receiving healing from hurt, becoming healing agent and raising many other healing agents. 

 1. Receiving Healing from hurt

The man of Gadarene  received healing because he went through three major steps. Let us look at the three major steps this man undertook in Mark 5:6 before he was restored to sanity.

 _i. He had a clear vision of Jesus_ : 

The only physician who gives true and total freedom from hurts is our Lord Jesus Christ.* The scripture stated in Mark 5:6 that the possessed man of the Gadarene _"...saw Jesus from afar..."_  You need to have a clear picture of Jesus' presence in your life in order for you to be delivered from any form of hurt. Seeing Jesus in your situation takes a conscious setting of your heart and mind on Him even while you are hurting. It is rather unfortunate that many hurting people are not able to see Jesus in their situation. They are veiled and blindfolded by their hurts.

 _ii. He ran to Jesus:_

If a demon- possessed man could run to Jesus, where have you been carrying your hurting self to?

 iii. _He worshipped Jesus:_

Worship indicates submission and, True worship is simply submission to God and His will in your life.

The demon-possessd man submitted himself to  the Lordship of Christ. He submitted himself to be healed of his hurt. Though the demon in the man bowed to Jesus, but the man also submitted his will to worship Jesus. (Mark 5:6-7).

 No one receives true help until he submits himself to be helped.

It is worthy to note that before you can give healing to others, you must have first of all received healing yourself. I believe that it was this man who carried his situation to Jesus. You will realise that the demon in him cried out with a loud voice in Mark 5:7 saying,  "What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore You by God that You do not torment me."

It is high time you took your hurts to Jesus  for healing and deliverance.

 Bible reading:

Mark 5:1-20.

 PRAYER FOCUS

1.) Father God, I open up myself for your healing and deliverance from my affliction and infirmities in Jesus name.

2. Father God, torment every spirit tormenting me in the name of Jesus.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

BEWARE OF DOGS

Text :  Philippians 3:2. Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators! Usually, when you see the inscription "BEWARE OF DOGS", you instantly know there's a wild or trained dog around the corner, hence, the need to beware.  However, when God says 'Beware of dogs,' He wasn't actually referring to dogs as in 'animals' but to animals in human skin. Note that this caution was given to believers against other so-called  believers.  That is, some people within the church that we refer to as brothers and sisters are actually operating in the capacity of dogs.Though fellow worshippers in the church are called brothers and sisters, but if they behave like wild animals, know that they are dogs in humans skin- BEWARE. Matthew  7:6 says *Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.*  Essentially, dogs don't have capacity to r...
