    Sermon # 25 - God Who Heals Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jun 6, 2025

     | 434 views

    Health and long life are God’s precious gifts to us. The life of King Hezekiah is a great reminder that God hears our prayers and brings healing to our bodies. No matter what the illness we or someone close to us is struggling with, know that Jesus is our healer.

    We read in 2 Kings 20:5, “go back to Hezekiah, ruler of the LORD's people, and say to him, "I, the LORD, the God of your ancestor David, have heard your prayer and seen your tears. I will heal you, and in three days you will go to the Temple.” (GNB) King Hezekiah was really sick, and near ...read more

    Instead of being satisfied to feel "sorry" when we miss God’s mark, we should press on to produce change in life to please Him.

    Introduction Israel lamented that God’s help was missing (7:1-2). They cried about it for 20 years (7:2). Yet, they never felt the need to do anything about it other than cry and be sad for their lack of spiritual happiness during all this time. After all, no one else was any closer to God.

    The Roman centurion was the only man that caused the Lord Jesus to "marvel". We should strive to grow in faith realizing that "without faith it is impossible to please Him".
