Heart to Heart: January 2013

"If You Were, You Is!"

Healing belongs to us! First Peter 2:24 says, "[Jesus] 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."

This verse says, "By His stripes you were healed,"—not going to be, not maybe so, not hope so. You were healed! And if you were, "you is!" See, we need to understand that because of what Jesus accomplished at Calvary, healing has already been sent. All we have to do is believe and receive!

 

Remember the Centurion in Matthew 8:5–13? He came to Jesus on behalf of his sick servant. Jesus was willing to come and lay hands on the servant, but this Centurion said, "Only speak the Word and my servant will be healed." Scripture tells us that the servant was healed that very hour!

Now I want you to notice that this Centurion was not a covenant person. He wasn't a Bible school graduate or a scholar of Jewish law. Yet he still received what he needed from God.

What was his secret? Why did he receive? It's because he believed what Jesus said. As a Roman captain, this man understood the flow of authority. In other words, he understood the power in the spoken word of Jesus. He didn't question what Jesus said or put his own interpretation on it. He simply believed and received the spoken word.

Friend, you can do the same! God has given us His written Word, and it's just as real as if we were looking Jesus in the eye and hearing His voice. All we have to do is speak that Word!

No sickness or disease is left out of the redemptive work of Jesus—not a headache, not a stomachache, not any kind of cancer, nor any kind of heart trouble. In God's plan of redemption, every sickness and disease has been dealt with!

Start the new year out right! No matter what time it is, no matter where you're at, believe the Word, speak the Word, and receive your healing! There's power in the Word!
