The Healing Power of God

We had revival this weekend, with my long-time friend Rocky Meo. After Friday's message about expecting the deliverance and healing of God (Psalm 107:19-20), Rocky met with we menfolk Saturday morning for breakfast and challenged us to stand in the gap for our teens and children (Ezekiel 22:30). This morning, we talked about freedom in Christ, from sin, addiction, affliction, sorrow, strife, anger, depression, ailments, sickness, and anything else that hinders our walk with God (Galations 5:1). Finally, tonight, we gathered together to worship our Redeemer, our Savior, our Healer, and Rocky took us to Acts 3 to hear about a cripple healed in the name of Jesus Christ. Following a message on the power of His precious name, Rocky invited us to the altar to lay out before God any unconfessed sin or troubling afflictions. We offered our prayers up to the King of kings, and He brought healing to His people. Praise the Lord! He is so good, and I truly love Him with all of my being.

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Love of the Father

This week, I had a wonderful moment with God. He wrapped His arms around me and kept whispering in my ear, "I love you. I love you."

God is not a god of wrath or judgment. He is a God of Love. It is the core, the very heart, of who He is. And it is out of this abundant love for us that He made a way for us to join Him in perfect, loving relationship: the blood of His Son, Jesus the Christ. Praise the Lord! So this morning, I look forward to expressing my love for Him with my church family. He is worthy, He is Lord, He is love.

And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. 1 John 4:16
