    Are You Sick? Series

    Jesus tweaks the argument of who is in control just a little bit to introduce the real sickness in mankind - sin. He is in control of that too. Are you willing to give Him control over your total cleansing from evil?

    We’ve spent a couple of weeks in Matthew chapter 8 talking about control and authority. Matthew shows us that Jesus has it—over the seen and unseen universe—but that we as humans are loathe to give up control over our own lives and give it to Him. We saw a couple of notable examples in a Gentile ...read more

    This is where He HEALS A PARALYSED MAN. Why does Jesus heal this paralysed man then, but doesn't heal Joni now? Joni is paralysed too. I can only say that Joni has been used of God all around the world to bring many people to Christ. Could God heal her?

    Part 1 - Matthew 9:1-8 - LORD, HEAL THE PARALYSIS OF MY HEART! I remember being invited to hear Joni Earekson Tada speak many years ago - a beautiful Christian woman who was paralysed from the neck down after a diving incident. When she spoke, the presence of God filled the room. In Matthew 9:1, ...read more

    In Matthew 9, Jesus says three things to the paralyzed man. Be encouraged, your sins are forgiven, and get up and walk. This is a crusade sermon that I often preach overseas to thousands of people at a time. It is simple, but powerful.

    This message looks at the healing of the paralytic and asks why we settle for less than God's best when we ask from God. It then looks at four examples of how we do similar things today.

    - We want to begin with something that stands out early in the story: the fact that they obviously come for physical healing, but Jesus responds to the man by saying that his sins are forgiven. - Why would Jesus do that? Was He unaware of what they’d come for? (Obviously not.) Was He ...read more
