Freed from their sins and healed by Jesus

-
Being able to help people in such an extraordinary way has given you a certain satisfaction, I suppose.
I was very, very happy to see that some people were cured. But I never forgot who the Helper was. Whenever a letter like that came to me about healing, I would kneel down with those words:
'Look, My Saviour, this is for You, the thanks are for You,... but I can rejoice in this too, can't I?
Were you also a pastor of the sick?
I suppose praying over the sick and caring for the sick go hand in hand. If I was called to see a patient, that was the first question before prayer:
"Is everything okay between you and the Savior?"
In many cases, confession followed, clearing the way for a prayer of faith. James did not write in vain:
"...even if he has sinned, he will be forgiven" (James 5:14-17)
...
I am thinking here of the story of the healing of the man with a stroke (Matthew 9:2), who was first freed from his sins and then healed by Jesus. This order is also found in Psalm 103: "He who forgives all your sins heals all your diseases."

III. Working with God

I - II - III - IV from the book: "God Knows You’re Human" by Terry Virgo Working with God When you know that God has initiated a relationship, you can also expect His help. You do not have to make the disciple over-dependent on you. You become a fellow labourer with God in producing another disciple of the Lord Jesus. ‘Who do people say the Son of man is?’ Jesus asked His disciples ( Matthew 16:13 ). Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God’ ( Matthew 16:16 ). On hearing this, Jesus said to Peter, ‘Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven’ ( Matthew 16:17 ). Jesus was the discipler, but Peter found out something that Jesus had never told him. He received a revelation from God. Similarly, when your disciple finds out things you did not tell him, don’t become offended but rejoice that God is working alongside you. Ultimately your goal is to help the new believer hear and obe...

The " Influential " series - Part One From the first days of his earthly ministry, Jesus proclaimed the coming of the Kingdom of Heaven. More precisely, he announced that his Kingdom had arrived. It has many manifestations in the invisible and visible world. The dynamic of the Kingdom basically: the life, ability and power of the King: The God Almighty . The better we understand His character and abilities, the better we represent his Kingdom in the visible world. The apostolic teaching says: By faith we understand that the universe* was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible. Heb 11:3 {ESV} *Lit. “we understand that the ages of the world (aions) were created by the word of God, so that out of the invisible came the visible.” Here is an important connection between aion and the Word of God The Holman translation is more specific: By faith we understand that the universe...

From Guilt to the Throne

Guilt or Throne? spiritual, mental hygiene, mutual need, purification, confidence, etc. This article is part of the "Vitalize" pack Dear saints and beloved! I recently visited a church which has a beautiful family life but suffers from a typical 21 century sickness. The guilt. Interestingly, leaders have told me that members are not as eager to come and get their lives back on track when they commit sins. They simply do not confess them openly. Since it is pastoral responsibility first - I really don't understand, why... The place we came from I believe that guilt is one of the most serious attacks on the humankind. People, nations can do "amazing" things to get rid of guilt. They walk thousands of miles, they squeeze themselves, they oppress themselves and unfortunately they oppress others just to see their own lives as superior and better. In fact, we see whole networks promising "grace" without any chanc...
