For Healing


 We are in the process of being healed. He heals us because He loves us. But our healing also affects others. Greatly. Our healing can change the atmosphere around us; pick it up.

 A man healed of insecurity and dependency on the external for his joy and acceptance reflects confidence and stability. A woman healed of the abuses of her past shines compassion, strength, and understanding. We all have valuable gifts to share and our healings are the wings on which those gifts are carried.


 So don't feel selfish for asking for your heart-healing; even seek it. You'll make the world a better place as your healing comes. Things change when a person is healed.

 Our healings can be painful and take time. They can also be quick and soon. But whether a heart-healing is instantaneous or whether it is a long-term journey, every healing is miraculous.

 What is the healing you desire?

 - Freedom from fear or rejection?
- The restoration of a guilty soul?
- Healing from past spiritual abuses?
- The repair of broken relationships and restored intimacy?
- The healing of a heart wounded by an upbringing lacking love and assurance?

 Whatever it is you desire, Jesus is the healer and He came to heal the broken; to bind us up. He made us, He understands us, and that is what He does; like no one else. No one else can bring healing like Jesus. He'll use words, He'll use people. He'll touch miraculously by His Spirit. He knows you. He made you, and He knows how to heal you. So, let Him.


I am the Lord, your healer, and when you ask for good, I do not return evil. When you ask for mercy, I do not bring hatred. I am the Lord, and I am the Lord your healer.

Sometimes dreams must die. Dreams never realized can be heartbreaking, but there's nothing that leads to that craggy road called discouragement more directly than dreams realized and then lost. The hope of marriage broken on the rocks of disappointment and conflict. Booming investments in the market tail spinning into oblivion on the comment of a high political official. God's promises realized seemingly put to bed for good.  Seemingly.  I want to give you hope. She is just sleeping. The young vibrant female we call hope is not dead. She is just sleeping. But she needed to lay her head down into a lifeless slumber, lest, we come to trust in her instead of Someone greater. There's a story of a rich woman, a childless woman. Her lifelong and dormant dream was to give birth to a child. It was a hope for her, a dream; a good dream. Many of us are like her. We hope, but never get our hopes too high, lest they be disappointed; lest we be let down into the overwhelming mir

The Promises of God If God makes a promise, can you depend on it? Does He have the power to carry out what He says He will do? Is His word trustworthy? Those of us who know God will quickly answer yes. We know that God is not only powerful, He is also faithful. So what about that cold that we’ve been battling for the past two weeks, or what about the glaucoma, the cancer, the emotional issues, the mental hangups? The anxiety. Doesn’t God promise that He will heal all of our diseases? I know of Christians that have been healed, but I also know of those who have gone to their grave with their disease, and even at times, because of it. Why the disconnect? Has God forgotten some while healing others? Why does tragedy strike some who have faith in God while skirting around others? Before I answer that question (it’s really one question), let’s look at the Scripture to see what it has to say about the promises of God. Here are three things we can say about His promises - The promises of God

Every good and perfect gift comes from the Father of lights in whom there is no shifting shadow. Salvation is a gift from God. But can your salvation be lost? Is it that fragile? Is it not a gift? You didn't earn it, did you? Is it not by His doing that you abide in Him? "But", you may ask, "I could lose a gift, couldn't I?" Let me ask you a question, when was the last time you misplaced your house?  Jesus said, "In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you." God has gifted you a house, a dwelling place in His heaven. That is salvation; living with Him forever. Salvation is a gift from God, and it is a good gift given by a good Giver. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. How could there be any flaw in His gift? Is He one to deceive or mislead? Does God mis-ma
