In Jesus' Hands Day 21

Jesus Heals - 30 Days In Jesus' Hands

On 28th September 2010 I threw myself into Jesus' hands. Over the next 30 days I'm trusting that Jesus will fully heal me of all illnesses and diseases, some of long standing (1 Peter 2:24). My testimony has been undermined. I am sick of being sick. I feel led to take none of the 6 medications prescribed for me, nor see any health professionals (Mark 16:18). I believe I'll become healthy, rested, alert, mobile, vigorous and sound of spirit, soul, mind and body.

A Higher Place

In all my years of being Christian I have never been able to consistently make time to pray and study as I have these 21 days. It's wonderful, rich.

In many ways I am in a higher place:

•   I am so very aware that Jesus is near (Matthew 28:20), always, it is His promise.

•   I know that all God's promises are good because I have seen and read hundreds of times about salvation, deliverance and healing in people's lives (2 Corinthians 1:20). Jesus. He created and sustains each one, and even the entire universe (Colossians 1:17).

•   Key words from Scripture keep coming to my mind, I often do not know which book they are in, but from the key-word I can find the verse; it is always a perfect fit for my meditation with Jesus at that time, whether I am cleaning, or cooking, or shopping for the family, or praying!

•   All day, and also when I wake in the night, Jesus will bring Himself into my consciousness. Always He brings hope, as in Paul's prayer for us:

(Romans 15:13-14) Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit. I myself am also persuaded about you, my brothers and sisters, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to teach others.

Cat On A Hot Tin Roof

At the same time I'm like a cat on a hot tin roof. It seems to be a dichotomy (two mutually exclusive, opposed, or contradictory ideas):

•   I see no sign of any physical change, but I trust my Jesus for my wellbeing!

•   The days are ticking by. Where is my rescue?

Nasty Stronghold

For years I had a nasty stronghold, I believed that God has favourites. Some people seemed to constantly make progress in every area of their lives; they were joy filled in their Christian walk, they enjoyed satisfying work and adequate finances (they could make spending and lifestyle choices), their relationships flourished in every area. Nasty. This was a painful place for me to live.

Now I know the truth. More than anything, I have come to realise that the way Jesus has got hold of me is so very special, so precious, that it far outweighs anything Satan or the world may try to tempt me with. My family has been healed; our relationships have been healed, we grow together. Our finances are truly sufficient. We are able to be generous and live full lives.

What I See Is In The Spiritual - Not In The Physical

Everything that I do see is in the spiritual, and:

(2 Corinthians 10:4-5 NIV) The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.

Faith Is My Friend

(Hebrews 11:1 NIV) Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

I do not see what Jesus has promised in His passion and pain and death, and in His resurrection. Yet I am certain of what I do not see:

•  Jesus' wounds have healed me.

•  His blood has washed me clean.

•  He has purchased me, for eternity.

•  He has brought me into full sonship to Father God with Him.

•  Eternally I will live and reign with Him.

•  I am not alone, but a part of a mighty army, in Christ Jesus.

Righteousness

(Sorry, it has taken a few days to get back to this subject which I began on Day 16).

The main thing I would like to add is this:-

We have been adopted by Father God to be sons and daughters. This means that we have the same birthright and the same inheritance as Jesus. We have been washed clean. There is no question about how special we are. We have come into what God designed from the beginning, since before the Fall, you and I living with God and His Son Jesus. There is no question that Father will protect us from unrighteousness, the same way he does everything, by His Son Jesus!

(2 Corinthians 6:18) "'I will be to you a Father. You will be to me sons and daughters,' says the Lord Almighty".

Favourite Scriptures: A Walk Through Salvation And Righteousness:

(Romans 3:23)
For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God.

(Romans 6:23)
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

(1 Peter 2:24)
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.

(Matthew 27:46)
About the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lima sabachthani?" That is, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"

(2 Corinthians 5:21)
God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

(Matthew 28:1-10)
After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb. There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men. The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: `He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.' Now I have told you." So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Suddenly Jesus met them. "Greetings," he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me".

(Acts 2:37-39)
When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, "Brothers, what shall we do?" Peter replied, "Repent and be baptised, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all who are far off, even as many as the Lord our God will call to himself".

And then:

(Acts 2:42-47)
They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favour of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.


Praise Jesus
Amen.
