TOPIC: THE ULTIMATE PROMOTER MEMORISE: But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head. Psalm 3:3 READ : 1 Samuel 2:7-9 7 The Lord maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up. 8 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s, and he hath set the world upon them. 9 He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail. MESSAGE When I was studying for my Master’s degree, there was a young man who was working in a professor’s office as a messenger. In those days, there were no mobile phones, so whenever someone called the office phone to speak with the professor, the boy would answer the phone first before taking it to the professor. Most times, however, whenever he answered the phone, the people on the other end of the call...

TOPIC:  ONLY GOD CAN HEAL

MEMORISE:  
And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee. Exodus 15:26

READ: Luke 8:43 -48

43 And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any,

44 Came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blood stanched.

45 And Jesus said, Who touched me? When all denied, Peter and they that were with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee and press thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

46 And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me.

47 And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him, she declared unto him before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.

48 And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.

MESSAGE
Doctors are wonderful people and God has used them to save many lives. However, a doctor can try his or her best without the patient getting better. Doctors are limited because they can only try their best; the Almighty God is the healer. I believe that the Coronavirus has shown the world now that only God can heal. For every vaccine that scientists created thinking they had contained the virus, a new variant emerged.

There are sicknesses that doctors tag as incurable. That word does not exist in Jesus’ dictionary because He heals all sicknesses and diseases. There are sicknesses that doctors just cannot diagnose. My God does not even need a diagnosis before He heals you. A woman who kept throwing up everything she ate and couldn’t be cured by doctors came to one of our services in the RCCG. Just as I was about to start preaching and said, “Let somebody shout Halleluyah”, she shouted halleluyah and a worm jumped out of her mouth. She did not have to undergo any tests, Jesus just got rid of the problem in an instant. In Jeremiah 32:27, God said:

Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?

Beyond healing, God can ensure that you never fall sick again. He can shield you from sickness to such an extent that even if everyone around you get infected with a contagious disease, you would be immune to it.

Beloved, obey God completely and He will ensure that you live above sicknesses and diseases. You should also note that If He heals a person and the fellow goes back into sin, a worse disease will come on such a fellow (John 5:14) hence a holy lifestyle is mandatory for all His children.

God is our healer, put all your faith in Him like the woman In our Bible reading today and you will receive divine healing in any area you require it in Jesus' name.

KEY POINT
Only God can heal. Obey Him and you will live above sicknesses and diseases.

HYMN 25: THE GREAT PHYSICIAN NOW IS HERE

1 The Great Physician now is near,
  The sympathizing Jesus;
He speaks the drooping heart to cheer,
  Oh, hear the voice of Jesus!

Sweetest note in seraph song;
Sweetest name on mortal tongue;
Sweetest carol ever sung:
    Jesus, blessed Jesus!

2 Your many sins are all forgiv’n,
  Oh, hear the voice of Jesus;
The veil ’twixt you and God is riven,
  Redemption wrought by Jesus.

3 All glory to the dying Lamb!
  I now believe in Jesus;
I love the blessed Savior’s name,
  I love the name of Jesus.

4 His name dispels my guilt and fear,
  No other name but Jesus;
Oh, how my soul delights to hear
  The precious name of Jesus!
