HIGH FEVER

Text: Luke 4:38-39.

And he arose out of the synagogue, and entered into Simon's house. And Simon's wife's mother was taken with a great fever; and they besought him for her.* *And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and ministered unto them.

If Peter's mother in-law had gone to the hospital, she would have been diagnosed of high fever, and the diagnosis would have been correct. But the root cause of her sickness was actually spiritual.

The spiritual rules the physical.Medically, sicknesses are treated, but spiritually demons responsible for sicknesses and diseases are rebuked. Jesus rebuked the fever and it left. 

God is concerned about our whole being. He is concerned about your physical well-being. He made adequate provision for our health in the salvation package.

He  said in Exodus 15:26 that, If you wil diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD your God, and will do that which is right in his sight, and will give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that heals thee. 

There are many diseases ravaging mankind from time immemorial, but God said He will not allow any of these diseases to come near you. All you have to do is to diligently harken to His voice with the intent of obeying His commands.

One other promise that God gave us in that scripture above is the fact that He is our healer. 

If for whatever reason, you are already battling with one ailment or the other, His word says, He is the Lord that heals you. If God Himself is your doctor, then, you are in a safe hand. Doctors only care, it's God that heals, and now, the healer Himself is your doctor. He cares and He is capable and willing to heal you.

1 Peter 2:24 says, *“He himself bore our sins” in his body on the tree,   so that we might die to those sins   and live righteously.   “By his wounds   you have been healed.”* 

Regardless of what names they are called, stand on the authority of God's words today and rebuke such disease away from your life.

 *Bible reading:*

 Luke 4:38-39.

 *PRAYER FOCUS*

Father, I receive the full package of total well-being (in my spirit, soul and body) that you have for me in Jesus name.

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...

GULLIBLE BUT INTELLIGENT

Text : Mat 25:31-32  *When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:*   *And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:*  Have you ever wondered why Jesus compared His followers to sheep and not goats?  Sheep has reputation for being stupid, defenceless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool. According to a study by Keith Kendrick, he said in reality, Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are  sent to slaughter. The truth is that sheep are far smarter than we know., All these reasons and more are the basis for Jesus' comparism of His followers with sh...
