MIRACLES OF HEALING ( CONT.)

 Physical Infirmity:

JOHN 5: 1-9

Later, Jesus went  ( up) to Jerusalem for a special  feast. In Jerusalem there is a pool with five covered porches, which is called Bethesda ( a pool of water north of the temple thought to have curative powers) in the Hebrew language  ( referring to Aramaic, the native language of the Jews at the time) This pool is near the  Sheep gate. Many sick people were lying on the porches beside the pool. Some were blind, some were crippled, and some were paralyzed, and they waited for the water to move. Sometimes ( at a certain time; From time to time) an angel of the Lord came down to the pool and stirred up the water. After the angel did this, the first person to go into the pool was healed from any sickness he had. A man was lying there who had been sick ( an invalid, disabled) for thirty eight years. When Jesus saw the man and knew that he had been sick for such a long time, Jesus asked him, Do you want to  be well? The sick man answered  (Him) Sir there is no one to help me get into the pool when the water starts moving ( stirred up). While I am coming to the water, someone else always gets in ( goes down ) before me. Then Jesus said to him, Stand up ( Rise). Pick up your mat (cot, bed) and walk. And immediately the man was well ( healed, became whole); he picked up his mat and began to walk. The day this happened was the Sabbath day.

Jehovah Rapha, you are the God who heals. I praise you for your healing power and pray for health and strength  today. Your Word is life and healing to my bones. You bore my sickness and pain and brought healing to the world through your suffering. Even if I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will not fear because you are with me, and you are comforting me. Please give me peace and help me focus my mind on you. Thank you that in my weakness I am made strong through you......Amen

Father there are so many of your children suffering today, I ask that you meet them right where they are  and touch them with your healing power, restore what was taken and fill them to over flowing with your peace and joy.

Jesus, you died upon à cross and rose again to save the lost, Forgive me now of all my sin, Come be my Savior, Lord, and Friend, Change my life and make it new, And help me Lord to live for You.

Many blessings to you and yours,

JESUS IS JUST A WHISPER AWAY!

Shalom to your home

Till next time,

ANGER

 Welcome  back  I want to start today by apologizing for putting christians in the same think tank as me. "Be angry and do not sin" do not let the sun go done on your wrath, nor give place to the devil. Ephesians 4:31 Do any of you have issues with anger ? I DO, But I go to God in prayer with repentance  in my heart, ask for forgiveness, and strive to do better. My husband and I sometimes can't get over ourselves and go to bed with out resolving our issues. Then complain the next morning how lousy we slept. Our heavenly Father says in plain words don't go to bed angry!  Proverbs 15:1 A soft answer turns away wrath, so speak to each other in love and kindness. It is amazing how simple a small gesture of kindness can change the course of someone's  day. Just like a smile or a good morning. In a world where there is so much hate, and discord, let's try spreading kindness. Remember the best vitamin for friendship is B1 God is so simple in His love for us.He just w

RECEIVING GOD'S LOVE

 I have learned that pain has purpose, which at the peak of excruciating discomfort, brings me little consolation.  Hindsight, though, has often proven pain's value. In fact, I have found pain to be one of life'so most effective teachers. It gains one's  full attention. It takes lessons down to the bottom line. ( Patsy Clairmont ) Our hearts respond to God's  love and mercy in individual  ways. God's  love may be changeless. , but our love for Him changes and deepens as we grow. Read Luke 7: 40-47. Take the time to consider just how long you have been loved. God knew you when you were small. He knew you before you were born. He knew  you before He'd  even created the first man and woman. He knew you before time had begun. And all that time He Loved You! Thank God for His love, that your life might reflect that love. DOUGHNUT: doughnuts are delicious, hot fresh right from the source. God is love, the source of love. Our love has limits, but, God's  love is pe

The Power of Prayer

 What is the Power of Prayer? "True prayer is neither a mere mental exercise nor a vocal performance. It is far deeper than that--it is a spiritual transacton with the Creator of Heaven and Earth" (Charles Spurgeon). Just what is the Power of prayer? How does prayer comfort, heal, restore? Why do we pray for our spouses, children for protection. How can praying make an impact? How can it change lives of those who don't know Jesus? The answer is simple, In Matthew 18:18-20, Jesus tells us about the power of prayer. "Truly, I say to you whatever you  bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Again I say to you,  if two or three of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or more are gathered in my name there I am among them." I think if we realized just how much power we have when we pray we would do it more often. It is our fiercest weapon ag
