THE TOTAL HEALING POWER OF GOD
God-Jesus-NEVER tries
To force himself on you-
Or anyone else
He leaves it UP to you-whether-
To say “YES” and INVITE HIM
Into your life
The man in today's gospel-
IS an example where Jesus
Invites someone to TRUST HIM-
Before REVEALING his healing power
The HEALING POWER of God
“Jesus said to him,
'Do you want to be well?'” John 5:6
I too-had to TRUST God-first-
And he gave me a SECOND chance
At life-He has BUILT a life for me
Through family and friends
That I could never
Have built myself
TRUST GOD-he knows
What you NEED
Trust in the TOTAL
Healing power of God
“SOME trust in chariots-
And some in horses
But WE TRUST in
The NAME of the Lord
Our God” Psalm 20:7
“May the God of HOPE
FILL you will ALL joy and peace
As you
TRUST in him
So that you
May overflow
With hope
By the POWER of the HOLY SPIRIT” Romans 15:13
Our CULTURE-tells us
That we must FIX ourselves
Physically-through clinics-rehab facilities-
THIS specialist and that specialist
But the truth IS-EVERYONE-
Works for God-OUR HEALER
Physical-mental-and emotional HEALTH
COMES from God-
How many times-do we hear-
In the NEW TESTAMENT?
“YOUR FAITH HAS HEALED YOU”
I KNOW mine has-I know my
TRUST IN GOD
Has TURNED my life around
The total
HEALING POWER of GOD
“GRACIOUS words
Are a honeycomb
SWEET to the soul
And HEALING to the bones” Proverbs 16:24
“THOSE troubled
By impure spirits
Were cured
And the people
ALL tried to touch him
Because POWER
Was coming from him
And HEALING them all” Luke 6:18-19
God and Jesus have so MUCH
To give to us
The WELLNESS that
ONLY they can give
A clear conscience-
A PURE and PEACEFUL HEART
And the LOVE of God and neighbor-
And the peaceful INNER HEALING
We CANNOT find on our own
THE TOTAL HEALING POWER OF GOD
