Never stop believing

All Things are Possible

Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God.

We hear the Word of healing, act on it, and confidently receive our healing.

People heard Jesus teach, faith came and then they were healed.

The same will be true today!

Real faith does what it can do and then trys to do what it cannot do.

That's the way most of the miracles in Jesus' ministry happened.

Jesus healed all who came to Him in faith and He's still the same today.

God is still pleased when we receive our healings.

Acts 10:38 says Jesus "went about doing good healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with Him."

Obviously, healing is good in God's sight!

Jesus was looking for a way to show the goodness of God, the Lord of the Sabbath, by healing the man with the withered hand on the Sabbath in the synagogue.

"And it came to pass also on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue and taught: and there was a man whose right hand was withered.


Jesus said to the man, 'Rise up, and stand forth in the midst.

And the man arose and stood forth.

Jesus said to the man, 'Stretch forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other."
Luke 6:6-11

Our God is full of mercy and compassion.

We can call upon His mercy and compassion,
and by faith receive healing or any of His
blessings/promises.

The father in Mark 9 and the two blind men in
Matthew 20 called on God's nature.

Jesus responded that He was there for them
and that whatever they needed, it was theirs
because they had called on the nature of God.
He was there to meet their needs.

He is ready to meet our needs also!

The boy's father that the disciples couldn't heal but got healed when they took him to Jesus, called on His compassion or the mercy of God.

Same with the two blind men who cried out for Jesus to have mercy on them.

Jesus is the will of God in action and He's revealed God's will to us.

We know God wants us free from sicknesses and diseases.

Read Matthew 17:14-18 about the demon possessed boy that the disciples couldn't heal but the father brought the boy to Jesus who "rebuked the devil; and it departed out of him and the child was cured from that very hour."

Neither the father nor Jesus concluded that it wasn't God's will to heal the boy just because the disciples couldn't heal him.

We must take God at His Word, even when we are not able to see our answer.

Jesus says He has healed us, so we are.

We must find out what God has to say about our situation and then we have to step out on that Word.

That lets our faith release God's power into our lives.

There was a man who had been blind from birth.

Jesus walked over to him, spit in the dirt, made clay of the spittle, smeared the clay on the man's eyes and said "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam."



The man obeyed Jesus' words and by faith he washed and came back seeing.

Our Father sent Jesus to destroy the works of the devil, including sickness.

Sickness isn't God's plan for us.

So, by faith, we can receive any and all healings or live in divine health.
