RECEIVE YOUR HEALING

Narration:

Persistence is pushing hard towards set goals despite all odds. In Matthew 15:21-28, we see the encounter between Christ and the Canaanite woman who persisted until her daughter got healed despite being referred to as “dogs”. She refused to remove her eyes from the target until she got it; she didn’t let what seemed like a derogatory comment from Jesus Christ to deter her.

Healing and good health are part of God’s promises to His children. The scripture is replete with instances where He healed the infirmities of people. God did not design man to be sick as we didn’t see any record of illness during man’s time in the Garden of Eden. Sicknesses came after the fall of man into sin. To restore man’s health, the scripture assures us that our infirmities were laid on Christ and with His stripes, we are healed. Medicines may help to treat ailments, but true healing comes from God. All that is needed is for us to believe in the potency of the blood of Jesus Christ to cleanse us from all infirmities. This healing will not come if we do not believe in it. You can also exercise faith in healing on behalf of your loved ones as it was for the Centurion’s servant (Matthew 8:5-13).

Dear believer, the God that healed those persons in the Bible times has not and will not change. He is still healing many and will also heal you, if only you will believe, reach out to Him and trust Him for your healing. Sin is an encourager of sicknesses and diseases, so we should endeavour to desist from living in sin. We should also mind what we eat and drink and keep our surroundings clean! Many diseases and epidemics come from dirty habits and lifestyles.

Prayer:

Jehovah Rapha! Please let Your omnipotent hand touch me today, healing every infirmity in me. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
