Healing and deliverance through regular church attendance.

Healing and deliverance through your faithful attendance to fellowship.

Luke  13:10 And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.  13:11 And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself.  13:12 And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.  13:13 And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.  13:16 And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?

The reason why some so called believers carry challenges in their lives for so long a time, is their failure to attending fellowship regularly.

Not attending your church services regularly or going to church late, is a sin with earthly and eternal penalties.

Hebrews  10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

Forsaking the assembly or missing services, is a sin. Sinners will be punished here and hereafter.

Matthew  18:20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

Jesus is always present by His spirit , when saints gather for weekly and monthly program of the church 

It is true that God is present everywhere. However, God is domiciled in His house. He is always there permanently.

Habakkuk  2:20 But the LORD is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him.

In His house we receive, spiritual, matrimonial, financial strength.

We receive grace for Christlike lifestyle and then glory and eternity with God, when we fellowship regularly in His house.

Psalms  84:7 They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God.  84:11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

Psalms  16:11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

A  sister saw a revelation that made her tremble. She was told by the Lord that, she attended service twice in a year.  She argued and said no. But then, she was shocked when she was told , she got to church in time, twice all through the year and every other days, she got to  the church late, it was reckoned to her as absence with no blessing.

Many things happen when you attend service. You whole body, soul and spirit would be serviced and then, there would be blood sprinkling that gives you, unusual protection.

Hebrews  12:24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.

1 Peter  1:2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.

Coming back to our scripture, concerning the woman, Jesus healed.

Luke  13:10 And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.  13:11 And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself.  13:12 And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.  13:13 And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.  13:16 And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?

Remember, Jesus had three years to fulfill His ministry on earth.

There was no vehicle, so He treaked to all the synagogues, He visited, during the three years ministry.

Mark  1:37 And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for thee.  1:38 And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth.  1:39 And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils.

Our Lord would be privileged to attend a particular synagogue once, during the three years.

Because this woman attended the synagogue regularly, she was there, when our Lord visited the place, that faithful day.

If she were not there that faithful day, the likelihood is that, she might carry that challenge and even die with it.

This explains why some so called churchgoers live with their challenges for a long time. 

The time God would have addressed their issues, they were not in the church that day. The devil kept them away from service and denied them of solution to their challenges.

Luke  13:10 And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.  13:11 And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself.  13:12 And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.  13:13 And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.  13:16 And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day

Jesus delivered this woman from eighteen years satanic oppressions.

He will do same for you this morning, if you will cultivate the attitude of this woman, attending your church services regularly.

2 Chronicles  15:2 And he went out to meet Asa, and said unto him, Hear ye me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; The LORD is with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seek him, he will be found of you; but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you.

1 Chronicles  28:9 And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind: for the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever.

Remember, Jesus Christ is still going about healing from all satanic oppressions.

Acts  10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

Jesus goes about doing good. What do you understand about that.

1 Timothy  2:3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;  2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

He is still saving people from sins without meaning biblical salvation and sins within, meaning, biblical sanctification.

Healing all .

This morning from all terminal incurable, longstanding sicknesses and diseases and other divers satanic challenges,  You shall be healed in Jesus name.

How am I so sure?

Hebrews  13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

He has not changed.

He has been doing it, now is your turn.

Let us pray.
