Matthew chapter 8

Jesus is still healing today. He is my healer. I have been healed in my heart, brain and from meningitis. Chapter eight opens with Jesus healing those who came to Him. Did you notice that each person that asked to be healed was healed? Some times people may think that God will not heal them or can not heal them. The scripture says He is the same yesterday, today and forever…He changes not. Jesus healed immediately; He did not even question them why they wanted to be healed or if they were free from sin in order to be healed. It is very refreshing to know that you can be healed. Ask; remember we learned that in chapter 7. Ask in faith and receive your healing.

Being a follower of Jesus means no doubting and no turning back. Those who follow Him must do so by faith. Do you have faith in Jesus as the Son of God? I do. I believe Jesus is the Son of God and our Savior. Ask Him to be your Savior today.

We can view the incident of the storm while they were in the boat as the situations we find ourselves in life. Notice that Jesus was asleep during the storm. Jesus is in you if you have received Him. He is calm because He knows exactly what to do to change the situation. Since He is calm you remain calm. Allow Him the opportunity to calm the storms in your life. Allow Him the opportunity to tell you what to do to calm the storms. Your attention should be on Him and what He is about to do or have you to do. As you keep your attention locked on Him the storm does not shake your faith.

The scripture says Jesus commanded demons to leave people. We will not debate as to whether there really are demons or not. The scripture says there were, therefore, there were. The main thing is Jesus got the people free from harassment, torment, shame, lunacy and whatever the demonic spirit was doing. Glory to God. Jesus is our deliverer.
