Glory to God...JESUS showed up!

God has a way of getting our attention, huh? I was sitting in church a couple Sundays ago when the LORD put on my mind Luke 7:21. Luke 7:21…Luke 7:21…it kept repeating in my head over and over again until I finally opened up my bible and turned to Luke 7:21.

It is written…“At that very time Jesus cured many who had diseases, sicknesses and evil spirits, and gave sight to many who were blind.” Luke 7:21 (NIV).
O.K. So, I am sitting and listening to a sermon being given by a pastor hobbling with a crutch across the stage on a replaced knee gone bad, but the message I am getting from God that day is… “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” Hebrews 13:8 (NIV).

Hey, I am slow for sure, but the take away for me from those two scriptures was that Jesus healed many and that same JESUS is alive in me and is the same yesterday and today and forever.

And that’s a fact! Our JESUS is still in the business of healing and wants you to bring heaven to earth as you pray for His glory to show up. The Holy Spirit is in us all, but pray that the Holy Spirit will be upon us and work through us and witness the amazing power of the universe set people free of diseases and sicknesses.

My wife and I, clothed with the power on high, prayed for this pastor, and to no surprise four days later the pastors knee quit hurting and the crutch has been thrown to the side. Knee surgery has been canceled. Thank you JESUS. We thank you and praise you and give you all the glory.

Are we ever so glad we prayed with this pastor. If we had not prayed we would have robbed our LORD of receiving glory. We got to give JESUS all He paid for, ‘forget not all his benefits-who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases’ Psalm 103:3 (NIV).

May this story propel you to get on with doing your Father’s work. We are here to glorify God. That’s exactly what we are called to do! Pray for God’s healing hand to touch others. It is not about us going to heaven it’s about us bringing heaven here.

“LORD, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, LORD. Repeat them in our day, in our time make them known; in wrath remember mercy.” Habakkuk 3:2 (NIV).
