Living Word Family Church Sermon Podcast

Did Jesus heal to prove He was God? Was His healing primarily for a sign? Or was it something more? We've already examined the Old Covenant case for God's will to heal. Let's take a look at how that will was expressed most powerfully and obviously: in the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ. 

Tonight, Pastor Mike focuses on the importance of living in victory as part of God's will. He discusses spiritual blessings and prosperity, emphasizing that God desires abundance. Knowledge of God's word is essential for overcoming struggles, and maintaining control over emotions is crucial. Pastor Mike encourages us to focus on godly thoughts, trusting God, and transitioning from a poor soul to a prosperous one through faith and action.

There is a connection between healing and forgiveness. When we understand that connection correctly, it is liberating and can create breakthroughs; misunderstood, it can be one of the greatest roadblocks to receiving healing.

Tonight, Pastor Mike emphasizes God's love and the sacrifice of His son for salvation. He highlights living in victory, joy, and peace, while defining prosperity as health and well-being. Aligning thoughts and emotions with God's teachings is crucial for a prosperous life. The importance of knowledge, spiritual growth, and a positive mindset is discussed, along with avoiding fear and bitterness. Pastor Mike also encourages us to foster a continuous hunger for God and practical ways to stir our faith.

If we are convinced that God's will for His people is healing, we need to deal with some passages in the Bible where it looks like sickness and disease are also from God. If God DOES make us sick sometimes, how can we know if or when it is God's will to heal?

Tonight, Pastor Mike emphasizes unity in faith and the positive outcomes it can bring. He discusses living in victory through Jesus Christ and the importance of a prosperous soul for overall well-being. Key points include controlling thoughts and emotions, renewing the mind for transformation, and the dangers of lacking knowledge. Living by the Spirit is essential for fulfillment, contrasting with living according to the flesh.

Everyone wants to be healthy. Sick people want to be healed. But whether we pray for healing, or HOW we pray for healing, often boils down to one question: Is it GOD's will that we be healed? Is the answer yes? No? Sometimes? Many, many people would quickly answer "sometimes", but is that answer based on something other than scripture? Let's take a look at what the Bible says about God's will concerning healing!

Excitement surrounds God's work and the importance of aligning with His plans. Unity in prayer and action is crucial, as individuals can achieve great things together. The promise of the Holy Spirit emphasizes waiting in unity for guidance. Community healing and support showcase the power of prayer. The church serves as a training ground for active ministry participation, urging individuals to remain united and engaged for spiritual victory.

We all want to be used by God, and the Bible reveals to us that there are certain categories of people that God will simply not use. In this message, we’ll zoom in on a couple of those categories and discuss how to make sure we don’t find ourselves in them.
