"Jesus Healed Them All"
If you study the Gospels, you will find that Jesus Never turned
anyone away that needed Healing. Jesus Healing Power is still available to you
today. Some Christians believe that it is sometimes God's Will for us to be
sick. They even teach that God is using sickness to Teach us something. This is
Unscriptural and Untrue. At no time has God ever put sickness on anyone. It has
been His Will from the beginning for us to walk in Divine Health. God has never
changed. He is the same Yesterday, Today and Forever! The Truth is, God desires
that you be Well. You must Receive Your
Healing by Faith.
Multitudes of people followed Jesus and were Healed. In Matthew
12:15, we find, "But when Jesus knew it, He withdrew Himself from thence:
and Great Multitudes followed Him, and He Healed Them All".
In Matthew 4:23, 24, we read, "And Jesus went about allGalilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the
gospel of the kingdom, and Healing All Manner of Sickness and All Manner of
Disease among the people. And His fame went throughout all Syria: and they
brought unto Him All Sick people that were taken with divers diseases and
torments, and those which were lunatic, and those that had the palsy; and He
Healed Them".
It doesn't matter what type of illness you have, Jesus is more
than able to Heal Every Sickness and Disease. At the Name of Jesus, every
Cancer Must Go. Every Back Problem Must be Healed. Arthritis and Bone Disease
Must Go in Jesus Name. Those of you with Sinus Problems, be Healed in Jesus
Name. All Thyroid Problems must line up with the Word in Jesus Name.
Depression, Fear, and Doubt, I Rebuke in Jesus Name. Those of you with Blood
Pressure problems, I pray that your body be Healed in Jesus Name. Tumors, Heart
Problems, Immune problems, Disappear in the Name of Jesus.
Now regardless of what you are suffering, Receive Healing for
yourself, Now! Do something that you couldn't do before. Get up and Walk, or
move something that you couldn't move before.
If God has Miraculously Healed You, please leave us a testimony in the
form of a comment here. Jesus is Alive, and He is the Healer. Today is your day
for a Miracle!

"The
Favor of God"
The
Scriptures tell us in Psalms 84:11, "...the Lord bestows (present) grace
and Favor and (future) glory (honor, splendor, and heavenly bliss)!
No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly" (Amplified).
The Scriptures tell us, "No Good
Thing Does He Withhold..." What
an Awesome Promise to Believers! God desires to Pour Out Abundant Blessings
and Favor in your life!
Every
day I can recall God giving me Favor. One example is when my first child was
born. At the time, I was working as a Youth Pastor on a very limited salary.
With no insurance, the final cost of the medical bills reached over 8,000
dollars. The hospital asked me to come in and make arrangements to pay. As I
sat down with the financial administrator, all I knew to do was pray. He asked
me how I was going to pay such a large debt. Here is what I replied, "I'm
not sure, but I'm willing to pay you every cent that is owed". He asked me
how much I could pay per month. I then told him that I could give him 50
dollars a month. He said, "Do you realize how long it will take you to pay
off 8,000 dollars if you only pay 50 dollars per month"? J Then his
phone rang. As he was talking on the phone, I began to pray. When he finally
hung up he said, "Ok, you may go, you owe us Nothing". He then told
me that he would just write it off. God cancelled an 8,000 dollar debt in an
instant. Why do I share this with you? That is an example of the Favor of God.
When I
went to buy my first home, I found a house that I liked that was already sold.
I asked the realtor about it and she told me that it was sold and would be
impossible to get. Three days later she called and told me that the buyer had
cancelled and that I could have the house if I still wanted it. Folks, that is
the Favor of God!
When
my wife and I started our first church together, we rented a large room in a
hotel right off the interstate. It was beautiful! When I asked the manger what
it would cost she replied, "This room rents for 250 dollars per day. You
can have it for 50 dollars per week" (The Favor of God).
The
Scriptures tell us in Psalm 8:5, that God crowned us with Glory and Honor!
(Another word for Honor is Favor). God has crowned us with Favor! You are a
child of the King! Therefore, you walk in His Favor everyday! It's not because
of who you are, but Whose you are!
God
wants to share this same Favor with you! All you have to do is Receive it, and
Live in it. Every day we have to release our Faith, believing that God wants to
Bless us. The more aware of His Favor we are, the more Favor we
receive. Begin right now by saying, "I have the Favor of God upon me Right
Now! Today, I will have Favor with everyone I meet. Lord, I declare
today that your Favor is surrounding me, In Jesus Name"!
I Love
You All! Pastor Mitch
"The
Power of Words"
Many
Christians do not understand how Powerful their Words are. What we Confess with
our mouths, is what we receive. Many Christians limit themselves, and sometimes
all they have to do to Advance themselves is simply change the way that they
talk. Regardless of what you say, that is what you will have.
Proverbs
18:21 reads, "Death and Life are in the Power of the Tongue: and they that love
it shall eat the fruit thereof".
Many
times we speak Negative words with our mouths, not knowing the dangers of it.
Examples are: My back is Killing me. I Don't Believe so. That scared me to
Death! That tickled me to Death. That makes me Sick! I'm Sick and Tired! I
Believe that I'm Taking the flu. I Doubt It! Many times these confessions come
out of our mouths without us even thinking about them. We must change the way
that we Think and Speak. Always speak the Word! Remember we are not moved by
what we Feel or See; we Stand On what God said in His Word! His Word is our
Final Authority.
If we
receive what we speak, let's use that as a Positive Force! I'm Not talking
about positive Thinking! Rather, I'm encouraging you to speak Words of Faith!
Thinking positive won't move mountains, but Speaking to mountains Will!
Why
not begin today, by speaking Words of Faith! Examples are: I'm Blessed! I'm
Healed! I'm Prospering, and Debt Free! I am Covered today with God's Favor! As
you begin to speak God's Words, your entire life is going to begin to change!
Deuteronomy
30:19 says, "I have set before you Life and death, Blessing and cursing:
therefore choose Life, that both thou and thy seed may live". This
passage tells us that we are given a choice. We can decide to choose Blessings
or cursing. For me, I choose the Blessings.
Choose
your Words very carefully. Begin today by Confessing God's Words and see your
life move in a new direction. Why not confess right now that You are Blessed
and Highly Favored! You can do All Things through Christ which strengthens you!
Confess today that You are Blessed going in and Blessed going out! You are
Healed, Protected, and Prospering according to God's Holy Word! Greater is He
that is in you than any problem, disease, or challenge. Confess that All of
your needs are met according to His Riches in Christ Jesus.
For in
II Corinthians 5:7, we find, "For we walk by Faith, not by sight".
I Love
You All, Pastor Mitch
“God’s Image of Us”
What image do you have of yourself on the inside? Some Christians
feel that God looks at us as dirt or filthy rotten sinners. After we become
Born Again, His Image of Us Changes. We can approach God with Boldness and
Confidence because after we are Saved the Scriptures call us Righteous. Some
Christians feel that they are being humble when they call themselves dust or
dirt, but this is not the Image that God has of us. Holiness and Righteousness
are Not the same. Holiness is something that we strive for, Righteousness is a
Free Gift.
The Bible tells us in II Corinthians 5:17-21, “Therefore if any man be In
Christ, he is a New Creature: old things are Passed Away; behold All Things
Become New. And all things are of God, who hath Reconciled Us to Himself by
Jesus Christ, and hath Given Us the Ministry of Reconciliation; To wit, that
God was In Christ, Reconciling the World unto Himself, not imputing their
trespasses unto them; and hath Committed Unto Us the Word of Reconciliation.
Now then we are Ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we
pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye Reconciled to God. For He hath made Him to be
sin for us, who knew no sin; that We Might be Made the Righteousness of God in
Him”.
Righteousness is not something that we can earn. It is given by God’s Unmerited
Favor at the time of Salvation. It’s what Jesus accomplished on the cross that
makes us in Right Standing with God. When you become God’s Son or Daughter, you
don’t have to approach Him in Fear because you have been Reconciled to Him by
Christ. We can come Boldly to the Throne on Grace knowing that He hears every
Word. To call ourselves Dirt or Rotten Sinners actually insults what God has
already told us in the Word. You are Not dirt; you are a Child of the Most
High!
Christ is now seated at the right hand of the Father in heaven. Ephesians 2:5,
6 says, “Even when we were dead in sins, hath Quickened Us Together With
Christ, (by Grace ye are saved;) And hath Raise Us Up Together and Made Us Sit
Together in Heavenly Places in Christ Jesus”.
God’s Image of You is Greater than You can ever imagine. He Loves Us more than
our understanding. Once you find out Who You Are in Christ, your Whole
Perspective changes. You are someone Special! You are a Child of a King! Begin
to enjoy the Rights and Privileges that go along with that. Begin today to make
that your Confession.
I Love You All! Pastor Mitch
"What
is Faith?"
Faith
in God and His Word is the most Powerful Force on the face of the earth.
Christians cannot operate in today's society without Faith. You can't even be
Saved or Born Again without Faith. The Scriptures tell us that without Faith we
cannot please God. Faith is when we look to God and trust Him and His Word
regardless of what we see in the natural. We cannot operate as the world
operates because we are living in a much Higher Realm.
The
Bible gives us a definition if Faith in Hebrews 11:1-3, "Now Faith is the substance
of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders
obtained a good report. Through Faith by the Word of God, so that things which
are seen were not made of things which do appear".
If you
read verse one in the Amplified, you find, "Now Faith is the assurance (the
confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, Being The Proof of
Things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as
real fact is not revealed to the senses]".
Faith
is when you believe God even when your circumstances tell you otherwise. We
cannot be moved by what we read in the magazines and see on the Television. If
you turn on the evening news, all you hear about is how bad things are. It's
easy to get that doubt and unbelief in your spirit if your Faith is not strong.
Sure the economy is bad, but we don't live in this world’s system. We walk and
live in God's System. We choose to believe the Word rather than the world. It
has gotten to where I have had to stop watching the news altogether. We are
Blessed, we are Healed, and God will meet all of our needs according to His
Riches in Glory. Remember that we Walk by Faith, not by sight. (See II
Corinthians 5:7)
How do
we increase our Faith? "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by
the Word of God" (Romans 10:17). Our Faith increases when we get into the
Word and start Believing and Saying what God has said about us. The more Word
that we have in us the Powerful our Faith is. When you start feeling signs of
sickness in your body, your Faith will rise up and you will Say,
"Sickness, Leave in Jesus Name. The Scriptures tell me that by His stripes
I Was Healed." (See Isaiah 53:5) We are not denying that sickness is
there, we are simply refusing to allow it to stay. That's what Faith is. It's
calling those things that be not as though they were. (See Romand 4:17)
If we
are going to start Walking in greater Faith, we are going to have to start
Talking Correctly. You ask, "Pastor, what are you saying"? I'm simply
saying that we are going to have to stop saying the problem and begin to start
Speaking the Word. What does the Word say about us? We are Blessed! We are
Blessed going in and we are Blessed going out! We are Healed, Delivered,
Prosperous, and Highly Favored! We are Overcomers, Victors and not Victims. We
are Children of the Most High! God is preparing to take us to a much Higher
Level in our Faith. Believe it, Receive it, and Now begin to Walk in it!
I Love You All! Pastor Mitch
