Jesus’s continual healing ministry through Bible believing believers.

Jesus’s continual healing ministry through all Bible believing believers.

Luke  4:38 And he arose out of the synagogue, and entered into Simon’s house. And Simon’s wife’s mother was taken with a great fever; and they besought him for her.  4:39 And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and ministered unto them.

During the earthly ministry of our Lord, He rebuked or commanded sicknesses and the people were healed.

What He did then continues today and will continue to happen until the end of time.

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

But then, how will this happen?

John  14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.  14:13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.  14:14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

John  16:23 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.  16:24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

This ministry of healing of Christ, continues with everyone who believes in Him and we ask the Father in His name.

Mark  16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.  16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.  16:17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;  16:18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

Again this was reaffirmed that   the ministry of healing of Christ continues with all the believers.

Luke  19:13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.

Every believer that occupies for Christ to propagate the gospel, will continue His healing ministry.

Matthew  10:7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.  10:8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.

Mark  16:20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

Again it was reaffirmed that every believer that engages in propagating the gospel shall equally heals the sick.

Luke  10:1 After these things the LORD appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come.  10:2 Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.  10:3 Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.  10:9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.  10:17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.  10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.  10:19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

These seventy healed the sick, every other disciples and that includes you in particular shall heal the sick and deliver the oppressed.

During the earthly ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ,  He healed those who come to hear His words.

Luke  5:15 But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.

Luke  6:17 And he came down with them, and stood in the plain, and the company of his disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all Judaea and Jerusalem, and from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, which came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases.

It then means that, if you will engage in preaching the word like Jesus, you also will manifest the healing ministry like Jesus did .

Acts  6:1 And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.  6:2 Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables.  6:3 Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.  6:4 But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.  6:5 And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:  6:6 Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.

Stephen, Philip and others were appointed to serve tables or doing ushering work in the church.

Stephen.

Acts  6:8 And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.

Philip.

Acts  8:1 And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.  8:4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.  8:5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.  8:6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.  8:7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed.  8:8 And there was great joy in that city.

Philip preached the word of Christ and healed the sick too, like Jesus Christ Himself.

Our Lord’s ministry of preaching and healing continues today by those who will occupy for Him.

Luke  19:13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.

Those who have their names written in the book of life.

Luke  10:20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

Remember, even you can do all things through Christ that strengthens you.

Philippians  4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

Listen to what Jesus did and begins to do same.

Luke  4:38 And he arose out of the synagogue, and entered into Simon’s house. And Simon’s wife’s mother was taken with a great fever; and they besought him for her.  4:39 And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and ministered unto them.

Take authority over every sicknesses in your life and that of others and healing ministry of Jesus Christ our Lord will continues.

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

But then, is your name in the book of life?

Are you biblically saved and sanctified?

Are you walking with God in daily biblical holiness of life.

Luke  1:74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,  1:75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.

Are you prepared for the coming of the Lord?

Let us pray for biblical salvation and sanctification.

Let us pray and ask the Lord to get us ready for the imminent rapture.

Pray.

Luke  4:38 And he arose out of the synagogue, and entered into Simon’s house. And Simon’s wife’s mother was taken with a great fever; and they besought him for her.  4:39 And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and ministered unto them.

Then command the sicknesses to come out of your life and that of others.

Let us pray.
