CONTENDING FOR THE FAITH



Can we expect Jesus to do what He used to do in a consistent manner, especially when it comes to healing?

8.”Jesus Christ the same, yesterday, and today, and for ever.” (Hebrew 13:8)

During His earthly ministry, it appeared that He healed them all even if he had to warn them to go and sin no more.

It appeared that healing was His calling card. He always showed up in a new place healing people. He also said that He did what He saw the Father do.

8. “Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.  9. And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.  14. Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.” (John 5:8,9,14)

Since we have other options like surgery and medications are we really insisting on our God-given rights to divine health or healing. Of course, we want to be healed by any means necessary when we are desperately ill, but through the night Holy Spirit began to turn this 
word over and over in my spirit for the people of God to contend for the faith as we were admonished to do in Jude 1:3...

“Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exalt you that ye should earnestly #contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.”

#CONTEND = insist, profess, claim, fight, push for, vie

I have an Apostolic/Missionary friend right here on Facebook who travels in and out of nations yearly, and she witnesses multiple miraculous healings, but when she returns home it becomes frustrating not to witness the same things here, especially among believers.

Let’s go back and study what we are to expect from and through what was  purchased for us at the CROSS.

So, right here on Facebook we can initiate a healing revival because people can’t worship, 
serve, study or enjoy the goodness of the Lord in pain wracked, diseased bodies, or with nagging, lingering infirmities.

We should ‘t be afraid to prove that there is still POWER IN THE BLOOD!!!!

1 Peter 2:24 says,

“Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.”

Let’s not forget that the disciples/Apostles did the same works of Jesus, and we were admonished to do them also.
