Friday: Further Study: Discipling the Sick — 4 Comments

  1. Jesus healed the sick, raised the dead, forgave sins and performed all forms of wonders. And these miracles caught peoples attention and confirmed the devinity of Christ. The early christians also healed the sick and even raised the dead in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazarath. They spoke and things happened immediately. They spoke with great authority and conviction. It was as if their life was dependent on the words they spoke. You can feel the faith they had in God that whatever they ask through Christ, they would receive. I still believe that even today, just like christians of old, we, modern christians, can attract the power of God through Christ to do greater things than what He did through the faith of the early christrians. I believe. I can do all things through Christ that give me stregnth

  2. Jesus is the great physician, and He is always ready to heal us of any diseases, sicknesses and ready to recreate us into His image. There is no sickness, or sins that Jesus cannot heal. Any sickness, or sin you can take it to Jesus. I have seen so many people overcome by their sins, if only they knew Jesus. Ron Halverson says, Jesus told him to have a colonoscopy, he went to the doctor and had it done, his life was save from cancer. Miracles, miracles, Jesus wants to give us one today. Jesus healed me many times of all kinds of illnesses. I praise Him today for His mighty healing power in my life. Hope it is the same for you. God bless.

  3. When Jesus healed the sick the praise did not not go to him, but rather they "praised the God of Israel....discipling them indeed. Healing physically, emotionally or otherwise should extract praise from the healed to God alone who is mighty to save.

  4. The question comes to me as I have spent time with "Discipling the Sick" this week. "Which do we address first, 'felt needs' or 'forgiveness'?" It seems that sometimes Jesus healed than then said 'Come and follow Me' while other times He forgave sins and then fulfilled their 'felt needs'. As our church prepares to open a "Community Center" I pray that we will have the wisdom to know which approach is right for each individual so they will see God for who He truly is.
