They Were ALL Being Healed

 Scripture:

“A crowd of people from the towns around Jerusalem also came together, bringing the sick and those troubled by unclean spirits. They were all being healed.” ‭‭Acts‬ ‭5‬:‭16‬ ‭NET‬‬

Observation:

There were several times when it was said of Jesus that “they were all being healed.” Here, it is being said about the apostles after Jesus ascended to heaven and they were filled with the Holy Spirit. When God is as work, people are healed. It is apparent in the life of Jesus and the life of the early Church. Healing and deliverance is a very real part of the Gospel message.

Application:

I long to see God’s kingdom come in greater and greater measure. I long to see more people healed by the power of God. It was the norm in the early church for people to be healed and it should be the norm for people today. The kingdom hasn’t changed. We have. As for me, I want to see God restore healing and deliverance to the Church. We see it sometimes, but I want to see the day when, “They were all being healed.” 

Prayer:

Lord God Almighty, remove from me whatever hinders You from working through me in healing and deliverance. Let my life be aligned well with You. Let Your kingdom come in stronger and greater dimensions. Let Your will be done in and through my life. Help me to accurately proclaim Your message and to demonstrate Your message as well with sign of following.

Yours,

Jeff
