In today’s world of skeptics and critics (2 Peter 2:1-3, Timothy 4:1,21) of anything that has to do with the church and God, God is still the same (Hebrews 13:8)!!
God wants His people to know that He is the same yesterday, today and will be the same tomorrow and forever more. It is still God’s will to heal your hurting heart.It is still God’s will to heal your sickness and disease. It is still God’swill to heal your financial situations. It is still God’s will to restore your marriage. It is still God’s Will period!!
It is the will of the god of this world to kill, steal and destroy you. It is the will of the god of this world to confuse you. It is the will of the god of this world to keep you downhearted. It is the will of the god of this world to destroy your financial stature. It is the will of the god of this world to destroy your marriage. It is the will of the god of this world to destroy you period!
So, the choice is yours my friends, will you let the god of this world {Satan} destroy you?
Or, will you let the ONE true GOD give you the healing you need to overcome the god of this world?
Let’s look at what the Word of God tells us about how God wants to heal every aspect of our lives.
Health
Isaiah 53:5
“ But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are
healed.”
1 Peter 2:24
“He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live
for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.”
Over and Over again in Scripture we read that it is the will of God that we be healed and be in good health.
Here is a list of Scriptures to help you know how serious God is about your healing:
Matthew 8:17, James 5:13-16, Hebrews 12:13, Psalm 103:2-3, Deuteronomy 32:39, Matthew 4:23, John 9:1-3, 3 John 2:1, Jeremiah 30:17, Isaiah 40:31, Matthew 18:19, Mark 11:24, Isaiah 58:8, 1 Peter 2:24, Jeremiah 17:14
There are many more Scriptures to let you know how great a love our Heavenly Father has for you and your health. The few Scriptures listed here are to get you started in your journey to find your healing and health through prayer, worship, reading,knowledge and love for your Heavenly Father.
By reading the Word of God we find there are warning’s God gives us when we know the truth and do not share that truth with others. One in particular includes all of God’s children who have been commissioned to go into the world and share His love and Word with others. Let us take a look at this Word of warning together now.
Ezekiel 34:2-4
“Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel; prophesy and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Woe to you shepherds of Israel who only take care of yourselves! Should not shepherds take care of the flock? 3 You eat the curds, clothe yourselves with the wool and slaughter the choice animals, but you do not take care of the flock. 4 You have not strengthened the weak or healed the sick or bound up the injured. You have not brought back the strays or searched for the lost. You have ruled them harshly and brutally.
These words may seem harsh and brutal to the world, but as true followers of God, we need to realize that God wants us to reach out beyond ourselves and help others. It is God’s will that ALL may know Him and the power of HIS healing touch and love!!Jesus told us Himself that as believers we would do the same things He did and even greater things than He did when we are obedient to His Word. Let us look at that Scripture now together.
John 14:12
“Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these,because I am going to the Father.”
Mark 16:17-18
17 And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; 18 they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people,and they will get well.”
Genesis 1:28
"And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."
NOTE - The red blood cells of your body already obey this verse, as they are being multiplied and replenished every 80 - 120 days! Look at the rest of what God said to mankind - subdue and have dominion... over every living thing! Wow! That includes cancer, HIV, name your sickness________, bacteria, parasites, viruses and all microorganisms that cause sickness and disease. He gave the blessing, He gave the command, He gave you the right - now do it. Put your foot down on sickness and disease and command it to go - it has no right to stay,You are a blood bought child of God!!! Don't put up with it another minute, subdue and take dominion!
If that does not get you excited as a believer, I do not know what will!! God gave us dominion over EVERY living thing!! Praise His Name!! It is so exciting to know that JESUS wants us to do exactly what He did and even GREATER things than He did when He was here on this earth. It is time to get out of our “comfort zones” and start being what God has called us to be!! We are called to go out into this world, lay hands on the sick, feed the hungry, comfort the hurting and show the Love of God to this world so the world will KNOW that God is truly the ONE and only TRUE GOD!!
Overcoming the World and the god of this world “Satan”
God never said we would not have trials and tribulations in this world. His Word actually tells us just the opposite my friends. Let us take a look at a couple of Scriptures for better understanding.
John 16:33
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
This may sound a little disheartening, but take heed to these words my friend and know that you are in good hands if you are in the hands of the Lord God:
John 10:27-28
27 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.
John 10:10
“The thief (Satan) comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”
Isn’t it wonderful to know that we have a God that loves us so much that He promises that no matter what this world (or the god of this world) throws our way, we can never be taken out of His hands. I do not know about you my friend, but that makes me want to shout praise to the Most High and Dance before Him with all I have in me!! AMEN!!
Colossians 1:13
“For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves,”
We are a new creation in Christ Jesus, and have commissioned to go into this world to help others overcome this world! Read and know that this is the true calling in which we have all been called:
2 Corinthians 5:13-21
13 If we are “out of our mind,” as some say, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you. 14 For Christ’s love compels us,because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. 15 And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.16 So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come:The old has gone, the new is here! 18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. 20 We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.21 God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
Here are more Scriptures for you to read to let you know that you can and will over come all that the enemy tries to bring against you:
Romans 8:28, Philippians 4:13, Ecclesiastes 3:11, Romans 12:1, Luke 14:27, 2 Corinthians 4: 17-18, Psalm 34:19,Matthew 18:18, Luke 10:19, Isaiah 41:10, Isaiah 54:17, 1 John 4:4, 1 John 5:4, Romans 8:31, 1 John 4:17, 2 Peter 1:3-4
Wealth/Finances
In today’s society we hear a lot of people mocking and publicly bashing the “Mega”churches for being “money” hungry. We also hear people talking about the ministers of God who are wealthy as if they are “just in it for the money” or all they want “is to get all your money”. This sort of mockery of the church is just what the god of this world wants to do to corrupt the minds of people to keep them from knowing the truth of God. When God blesses His people it His will as seen in ( Ecclesiastes 5:19 - Moreover, when God gives someone wealth and possessions, and the ability to enjoy them, to accept their lot and be happy in their toil—this is a gift of God.), therefore,no man should mock whom God blesses. We read in the Word of the Lord that it is the WILL of God that His people be prosperous and be in good health.We will look at some Scripture together now and see how God wants us to be living in His perfect Will.
Luke 6:38
“Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure,pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”
Proverbs 3:9-10
9 Honor the Lord with your wealth,with the first fruits of all your crops;10 then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.
Malachi 3:10
“Bring the whole tithe into the store house, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.
As you can see it is the Will of God that you give to the “Church” so He can bless you abundantly!! You will never be able to out give God. Even the world (the god of this world) knows that when you give you will receive. This is why so many people teach about the principles of giving. So if the world can give and receive, is not even more important as “Believers” that we give to the church so God can pour out blessings into our lives. As you begin to seek the truth in Scripture you will find that all the healing in all areas of your life will be given to you by our loving God in Heaven. Hear the Word of the Lord my friends:
Matthew 6:33
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
3 John 1:2
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
God does desire that His people be prosperous, but above all else He wants our souls to prosper. If we do find ourselves in a place of prosperity He does give instruction about that wealth. Here is a warning from the Word of God to the wealthy:
1 Timothy 6:17-19
“17 Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.18 Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. 19 In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the
coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.”
Here are some more Scriptures for you to read on wealth and finances:
Haggai 2:8, Deuteronomy 15:10, Leviticus 27:30, Numbers 18:21, Proverbs 3:9, Romans 8:23
So as you can see my friends it is God’s perfect will that you prosper and be in good health!! The secret to being in good health, being prosperous and overcoming this world is having a personal relationship with God. It is time to wake up my friends and know that God is still the same God as He was in the beginning. God will continue to be the same for all eternity. It is our choice to believe and act on His Word and live in HIS perfect Will for our lives.
I hope I have at least given you a starting point in your journey in finding God’s Healing Touch for your life my friends. Remember, we are blood bought, children of the Most High God. He is our ever present help in our times of need. All we need to do is reach out to Him. Let me leave you with a couple of final thoughts from the Word of our Most High God:
James 4:7
Submit yourselves, then, to God.Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Revelation 12:11
They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony;
they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.
You see my friends, by submitting ourselves to God,resisting the devil, and giving testimony of what God has done for us, we are VICTORIOUS!! AMEN!!
May you now walk in the KNOWLEDGE that YOU have the POWER
to OVERCOME all THINGS the Enemy BRINGS your WAY!!
May the POWER OF THE BLOOD keep you safe on your journey.
Blessings and Peace,
Rev. David A. Moorman
