UNFORCED RHYTHMS OF GRACE, DAY 166

‘And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever. And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them. When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses’ (Matthew 8: 14-17).
The final fulfilment of this prophecy by prophet Isaiah in the scripture above happened at the Cross of Calvary, where Jesus died for us. JESUS bore not just our sins, but also our bodily weaknesses, sicknesses and pains.
According to Luke 22:15-20, it was on the day of Passover that JESUS broke bread and gave to His disciples, thus, showing us that Jesus is the true, perfect unblemished holy lamb of God. So the Passover is a type of the Lord’s Table (Communion Table).
During the first Passover, the Israelites killed the lamb and put the blood on the doorposts (Exodus 12:8-13). The blood was for the people’s forgiveness. The blood covered the people’s sins and appeased the righteous requirements of God.
They also ate the flesh of the lamb roasted in fire with unleavened bread and with bitter herbs; that gave them strength (supernatural strength, health, healing and wholeness). None of them was found feeble over the next forty years (Psalm 105:37).
If the body of a shadow lamb could bring such supernatural results, how much more the body of the true substance lamb, our Lord Jesus Christ! That holds a double cure for us in this life –forgiveness of sins plus health and wholeness (Psalm 103:2-3). Healing, like forgiveness, is not a promise. It is the blood-bought right of Christians. The same way you have been forgiven, healing is yours, thus you have been healed already. Forgiveness and healing go together. The faith that you have for forgiveness is the same faith that will bring healing vitally. Abba has because of the Cross forgiven you. But if you don’t believe what He has done for you, you will live in guilt, fears and condemnation. The same thing goes for healing.
Abba has given you health and wholeness. But if you don’t believe it, you will end up sick, weak and beggarly.
Healing through the Holy Communion can be instantaneous and it can be gradual; as you continue to partake, you will simply get better.
Say this with me: I AM STRONG, WELL, HEALTHY AND RICH, WHAT TAKES THE BEST OF MEN FIFTY YEARS TO ACHIEVE, WITHIN A VERY SHORT TIME FRAME, I AM ACHIEVING FAR MUCH MORE! IN JESUS NAME! AMEN!
