RESURRECTION HEALING HAPPENS

A couple of years ago, I had a Mammogram done, which showed an abnormality, and with the results, I was then scheduled to have a Biopsy done. I did a lot of praying before hand, and asked for my Church to be in prayer for me also. During the reflection of talking to the Lord before the tests were to be done, I received a call from my daughter, and discovered we were having the same tests done, so we both lifted each other in prayer.

My biopsy was scheduled the day after Easter. When the Sonogram was done they could not find anything, after a long process of searching for the abnormality which showed up on the Mammogram. The Physician asked if I would let them do a Biopsy in the area the Mammogram had shown the abnormality, to be on the safe side, and I agreed. After the Biopsy was done, the Doctor left, and I was sent to another room and a nurse came in to speak with me. The Nurse began filling me in on what had happened, showing me the results of the Mammogram, and then the results on the Sonogram. After my mind absorbed what I was seeing, and heard, I paused, and said, "I have just experienced a Miracle! Praise the Lord, thank you, Jesus!" The Nurse then made the comment, "You know it was Resurrection Sunday, yesterday, and lots of healings happen around that time", we both smiled, and I was overwhelmed with joy and excitement!  I will never forget that glorious day! ~Debi Webster Perry

The very purpose of this Resurrection Day reminds us - Jesus has made all things new. He breathes new life, so that we can live...free. One can try to bury Power, but it won't stay there. One can try to bury Truth, but it is not dead. One can try to bury Love, but it cannot be contained. God is not dead, we are not alone, He lives! May we allow that truth to soak deep today...He has risen!

Our bodies were not made to bear sickness. We were not created that way. Jesus took all of that so we don’t have to. Why would you even want to try to bear sickness? We are to “submit ourselves unto God, and resist the devil (sickness and disease) and he will flee!” (James 4:7)

Our job is to submit to (believe and receive) what God’s word says and what Jesus did, and to resist everything that tries to come against us that Jesus took on the cross. That’s our job. He took our sickness and disease, so we resist sickness and disease. Don’t just lay down and give in to it. Resist it!

So to live and walk daily in resurrection power, we believe, speak and act on healing. Build up your expectation of God’s power to work (quicken) your physical (mortal) body and know that the same power that raised Jesus from the dead is at work in your life. You can live healed, healthy and whole in Jesus Christ every day of your life!

After being filled with the Holy Spirit, Peter realized that a new kind of power was suddenly available to him. When he spoke in Jesus’ name, he had authority. Lives could be changed, and miracles could take place. 

When Peter saw a lame man at the temple gate, he said, “In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene—walk!” The result was instantaneous. Peter took him by the right hand and lifted him, and “immediately his feet and his ankles were strengthened. With a leap he stood upright and began to walk; and he entered the temple with them, walking and leaping and praising God” (Acts 3:6-8).

All those who believe in Jesus have access to that same power through His name and the presence of the Holy Spirit. Like the lame man, you may have a physical problem that seems incurable. You may be crippled by emotional trauma or stress or be constantly worried. You may feel confused or overwhelmed with problems.

No matter what you face, you have immediate access to God because of Jesus. His power is real and available for you, and He wants to release this power into your life. He is waiting for you to ask and believe. Today, ask God to release His resurrection power in your life to heal you, touch you, strengthen you, and meet your needs. Do not doubt, but place your faith in Him.

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank you that you make all things new. Thank you for the victory and power that is in your name. Thank you that you hold the keys over death. Thank you that by your might, Jesus was raised from the grave, paving the way for us to have new life with you. Thank you that you had a plan, thank you that you made a way.

We praise you for your great strength, we praise you for your lavish love. We praise you that you are Conqueror, Victor, Redeemer, and Friend. We praise you that you are Deliverer, Worthy One, Everlasting Father, Great and Awesome God. We confess our need for you…fresh…new…again. We ask that you renew our hearts, minds, and lives, for the days ahead. We pray for your refreshing over us.

Keep your words of truth planted firm within us, help us to keep focused on what is pure and right, give us the power to be obedient to your word. And when the enemy reminds us where we have been, hissing his lies and attacks our way, we trust that your voice speaks louder and stronger, reminding us we are safe with you and that your purposes and plans will not fail. We ask that you will be our defense and rear guard, keeping our way clear, removing the obstacles, and covering the pitfalls. Lord, lead us on your level ground.

Shine your light in us, through us, over us. May we make a difference in this world, for your glory and purposes. Set your way before us. May all your plans succeed, that we may reflect your peace and hope to a world that so desperately needs your presence and healing. Thanks be to you God, for your indescribable gift! To you be glory and honor, on this Resurrection Day, and forever. In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
