Be Healed In The Name Of Jesus Series

BE HEALED IN THE

NAME OF JESUS

PART 1

Acts 10:38 (NKJV)

how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.

Jesus healed a broad range of illnesses - in fact, He healed "every disease and sickness:"

Matthew 4:23-24 (NKJV)

And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people. Then His fame went throughout all Syria; and they brought to Him all sick people who were afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were demon-possessed, epileptics, and paralytics; and He healed them.

There is no limit to what Jesus can heal. He healed all types of sicknesses and diseases, including:

those "ill with various diseases"

those who were "suffering severe pain"

those that were "demon-possessed"

those "having seizures"

those who were "paralyzed"

"Healing" comes from a Greek verb which means "to cure." To "cure" means to bring about a permanent change that restores you to health. If you find a cure for something, you don’t just get rid of the symptoms, you bring about a permanent change. Jesus did not just heal people, he "cured" them.

That’s Exactly What I Want In Every Area I Need Healed -- PERMANENTLY RESTORED HEALTH!

ILLUSTRATION

NOW -- I have personally experienced healing on several different levels by several different ways ....

1st -- I was driving to church one night when a car in front of me stopped suddenly, hit my brakes, went into the median curb which causwed my front tires to turn quickly and caught my hand in the steering wheel -- I knew I had broke my finger -- but I chose to go on to church. My Pastor decided to have a visiting evangelist lay hands on people needing healing and I went up with my swollen, black & blue finger -- lifted my hands up and when I brought my hands down -- the bruises, swelling, tenderness were totally gone -- I was good as new.

2nd -- I was suffering from very high blood pressure, taking some strong medicine and still having problems with it -- went to a meeting and Linda & I decided to give sacrificially every bit of money we had on us and in our savings account -- God healed me of high blood pressure on the spot. Haven’t had and never will have high blood pressure again.

3rd -- I was suffering from an hiadle hernia -- it was very uncomfortable and limited what I could eat and caused me to be sick alot at night time -- hard to lay down in bed and sleep. When I began learning about confessing the Word and standing on that Word everyday -- I began to do that and after several months I WAS HEALED -- I just simply began noticing I wasn’t having anymore problems and haven’t ever since and never will again.

4th -- Now I am still waging war on other situations in my body that I stand confessing and believing God’s Word to bring "Healing" -- which also demands my partnering with God’s Word!

MARK 5:21-36

Mark 5:36 (AMP)

Overhearing but ignoring what they said, Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue, Do not be seized with alarm and struck with fear; only keep on believing.

3 Things in this ONE VERSE that gives me some "Real Insight" to receiving my "Healing" ....

[1] Ignore What They Say

There will always be those who, well meaning as they are -- do NOT understand what JESUS CAN DO

Jesus didn’t jump all over them ....

Jesus didn’t give them lecture 2101 ...

Jesus didn’t try to debate them ...

Jesus didn’t get mad at them ...

He simply IGNORED THEM ...!

These guys were speaking the facts -- even while JESUS WAS STILL SPEAKING FAITH CONCERNING THE WOMAN’S HEALING & WHAT CAUSED IT!!

[2] DON’T PANIC & BE STRUCK BY FEAR

NOW -- my stepmom -- wasn’t raised in church and marrying my dad brought her into a whole new realm of God -- especially when she met us. She really didn’t know what to think -- but when she got Cancer in her Lungs -- she called in a "Panic"! With NO concept or foundation to stand on -- Linda & I began walking her through how this would work -- Prayed for her, told her to do 4 things .... Ignore people’s reports of death ... Don’t Panic ... Believe God can do this for YOU ... Stand waiting & expecting that Good Report To Come!

WELL -- She is healed & has remained Healed for years from lung cancer.
