Welcome to season twelve and a new day that brings with it new opportunities! It’s Wednesday! My goal is to put a smile on your face today! Pay close attention to the end of the podcast session for an exciting opportunity.
When I was around five years old my three older brothers decided to teach me how to ride a bike. At the time we lived way out in the country and had a really steep gravel driveway. I had just learned to stay balanced around the house when I saw my dad a ways down the hill with a man he had been helping to survey some land. My dad was standing in from of the mans open driver side door with some tools in his arms when I yelled out, “look dad I can ride” and started down the hill. I began gaining speed fast and my dad was yelling, “hit the bakes, hit the brakes!” I yelled back, “I can’t!” Just then I ran straight into my dad, the tools went flying my dad went backwards into the car door but I was safe. You see if my dad had not stopped me there was a long way to go down that hill and it would have been really bad.
But, my dad stopped me. He used his body to do so and it wasn’t pretty but I was safe.
When you come to Jesus the Father commits to you. He will look out for you in an effort to see you grow and to see you succeed and He knows there will be lessons along the way. My dad sat me down to instruct me after that incident not because he stopped loving me and wanted to disown me. It was because He loved me and wanted me to be able to ride with confidence knowing how to stop my bike in any situation. His concern was for my well being and that is how it when Jesus comes to our rescue and we are corrected by His instruction. Correction is not unloving, it is a sure sign of belonging, being loved and cared for at a much deeper level than unwarranted praise could ever offer. It says this very thing in Hebrews in the Bible.
You might be going through a time where the Father is sitting you down to instruct you in some area but do not be discouraged by it, be encouraged. It means you belong to Him and you are greatly loved. Listen carefully and get up knowing you are now empowered to do differently. Let His joy and peace rule your heart even those times and you will experience great success.

I still remember that one particular Christmas so long ago. I wanted a drum set and my little brother Scott wanted a guitar. That Christmas morning we awakened to a drum set and guitar but the names were reversed. It all got sorted out though in time. I knew my parents loved me and who wouldn’t make such a mistake when dealing with five rambunctious boys?
I shared that to make the point that although we are different in personality, gifting and etc, God as a Father still gives to us according to His wisdom the very thing it is we need. When we seek healing from Him it is not always packaged in an identical way to each of us. As a little boy my faith was not in learning guitar it was in learning how to play the drums. Therefore the guitar would have served me very little.
Healing comes from the Father without respect of persons in the sense that He does not favor one of His children above another. But without respect of persons does not mean we all get a guitar, or a set of drums. It means His love and grace will come to us according to our faith and how He has made us. So healing flows in many different forms, but the the fact remains that it flows.
How it will manifest will be multifaceted because there is not a one size fits all approach in this area. Scripture does teach us though that there are times where Jesus declared be unto you according to your faith. He even said to some their faith had made them whole. There’s one to chew on, just steer clear of any condemnation when you do. I hope you can hear me saying that healing is for you, just as it is for me.
You are loved today and always by your faithful gracious Heavenly Father. By coming to His Son Jesus in faith to be forgiven and made alive you became His child supernaturally and He is for you not against you. He can heal you just as easily as He forgave you and made you righteous. It is by the same means, it is a gift and it works on the basis of faith.
So I speak healing to you today in His marvelous name. I declare that He is not only able to heal you, He is willing. Go and have a blessed day today in His name and always. His grace and peace be with you.

You know, way back long, long ago when Israel was in slavery God very mercifully determined their time in that situation had come to an end as far as He was concerned so He set in motion His plan to deliver them. He used Moses as His vessel to go to Pharaoh and intercede for their release from slavery. Through a series of 10 plagues that God sent against Egypt to convince Pharaoh to let them go they left Egypt, healthy, wealthy and free. The Egyptians were so eager to see them go they gave them gold and goods for the journey, they just wanted them gone.
In the Psalms it says the following about that moment in history as the Israelites went out.
Psalm 107:20 He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.
God made sure they were physically well when leaving their bondage behind. Even way back then there was something in the heart of God that desired to see His children being well and doing well. There is no sickness in heaven and all sickness is a direct result of the fall of man that gave sin a place here on this earth. It came under the curse of the fall. But God has seen fit to intervene as it pertains to that curse matter and bring healing.
It requires His word being activated in the heart and the soul being washed with the truth not only about His ability to heal, but also about His willingness to do so. You are loved today and always by your faithful gracious Heavenly Father. By coming to His Son Jesus in faith to be forgiven and made alive you became His child supernaturally and He is for you not against you. He can heal you just as easily as He forgave you and made you righteous. It is by the same means, it is a gift and it works on the basis of faith.
So I speak healing to you today in His marvelous name. I declare that He is not only able to heal you, He is willing. Go and have a blessed day today in His name and always. His grace and peace be with you.
