Week # 7: According to this study: Questions
1). What did Jesus means when He said, “I will”?
From my understanding of my Saviors’ nature, He meant, “It is God’s will to heal you when you need healing in your body.” It means yes! It means He was expressing His desire to do something good about the man’s situation. I like this one! He was demonstrating His love for that man.
2). Look at Matthew 8:2, 3; what do you think it means “he worshipped Him”?
He gave Jesus reverence, honor, glory, praise and he exalted the Lord highly; he also believed in Him and believed in His Words (Matthew 9:18; 15:25).
3). What was one of Jesus’ purposes for His coming to earth?
His purpose for coming to earth was to destroy all the works of the devil (1 John 3:8), including sickness and disease.
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Matthew 8:17
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.
1 Peter 2:24
Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
Psalm 103:3
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
Matthew 4:23
And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.
Matthew 8:3
And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
Revelation 22:6
And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done.
Yes, I know, the same Scriptures. It is so important to get these Scriptures in your spirit, so you can use them when the enemy attack your body with sickness. Some Christians don't understand this, but it's the Word that speak to the symptoms and you agree with it that heals your body; read them and you will see!!!
“4 Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee. Selah.
5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them.
6 Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.
7 They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God.”
My Prayer for Today:
Father, my heart is set on a pilgrimage to do Your will. The vision is before me and your strength is within me. “Though I pass through the valley of tears, it shall become a spring filled with joy. In You, I move from strength to strength, ever increasing in power and prosperity, and in the end I shall take my place in heaven as a son/daughter in the royal family of the King. (1 Peter 1:4; 1 John 5:11)
My Confession for Today:
I dwell in the very house of God, and I am blessed in every way. I make the valley of tears a spring filled with joy. I have remarkable ability to do the task that is set before me. My unique talent and gifting causes me to be a blessing to the world. I press on from endeavor to endeavor and increase from strength to strength. I am a self-actualized son/daughter of God who is a tremendous blessing just because I am who He created me to be. I will!
Father, thank You for not leaving us with no help in this world. By the Holy Spirit, teach us all things and bring all things we need to our remembrance. We need Your Holy Spirit to bring all that You have said to us in Your Word. Help us to never forget the lessons we have learned and the progress we have made this far. Keep backsliding far from us. Improve our performance every day as we step forward in the path of Your will. Help us to turn a deaf ear to those who turn You into a killjoy. Your Word declares that You rejoice in my prosperity and at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore. It is You who gives us power to get wealth and healing, and to enjoy the benefits. You keep us occupied with the joy of our hearts. The thing that brings us the most fulfillment is the thing You have called us to do. It is easy for us to say, "Thy will be done," for Your will is the root of our happiness. Bless us to enjoy that happiness here on earth too. Lord, bless each and every one of these studies to be and encouragement to all who read them, and bless us to share them with others. Lord God, please bless the election this week to be in Your hands no matter what they may do, we are remembering that You said, "the heart of the king is in Your hand." Father God, keep us until Your Son Jesus return for Your people who are called by Your name. This we petition in Jesus' name, AMEN.
And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.—Matthew 8:2, 3
Jesus did two things when He was moved with compassion: He touched the leper, and He said something to him. I always thought the moment Jesus touched someone, that person was healed. But this man's leprosy didn't depart until Jesus said something. Apparently, His words were as important as His touch. What did Jesus say to the leper? "Be thou clean." He gave the command for the leprosy to depart. But He also said something else—the phrase most Christians are looking for—"I will." Notice Jesus didn't say, "I won't" or "Later." He didn't say, "This disease is good for you" or "You deserve this" or "God sent this leprosy to teach you something." Jesus didn't have to fast and pray to find out God's will. He just said, "I will." He knew God's will. He also knew one of His purposes for coming to earth was to destroy all the works of the devil (1 John 3:8), including sickness and disease. Part of Jesus' commission was to heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils, and bring deliverance to all mankind. God never told Jesus to just seek out a few here and there who needed healing. Jesus was sent to heal all. So when the leper said, "If You will," Jesus responded, "Of course I will! God's will is healing for all mankind!"
My Confession:My Father sent Jesus to destroy the works of the devil, including sickness. Sickness isn't God's plan for me. Therefore, by faith I receive healing.
Please read these scriptures (Isaiah 53:5; Matthew 8:17; 1 Peter 2:24; Psalm 103:3; Matthew 4:23, 8:3. Revelation 22:6.
