Healing The Sick
"And Peter said to him, 'Aeneas, Jesus the Christ heals you. Arise and make your bed.' Then he arose immediately." Acts 9:34 NKJV
Apostle Peter was visiting believers in different cities when he visited the saints in Lydda. There he saw a man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden for eight years and was paralyzed. Peter said to him, “Aeneas, Jesus the Christ heals you. Arise and make your bed.” The Bible says that Aeneas rose up immediately! And because of that one miracle all the people who dwelt at Lydda and Sharon turned to the Lord. Hallelujah!
Imagine the impact we will have in the world if Christians are healing the sick everywhere - if we visit the hospitals, minister healing to them and they all recover immediately; or if we minister to the sick in our neighbourhoods and on the streets; so many people will be saved!
Jesus Christ is still the same as He was in Bible days, and He is still in the business of healing the sick. God is looking for believers through whom He can restore health to the sick, raise the dead, open blind eyes, cast out devils and perform divers miracles in the world. Ideally, every believer should be involved in taking the healing power of God to the nations, but not everyone seems interested; not everyone is available; not everyone believes. God is looking for courageous men and women who will dare to believe and act on what they believe. Jesus went about doing good and healing all that were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him! Hallelujah!
