The Ministry of Jesus
183
“I don’t want to bother the Lord.” No. The Bible says, “You have not because you ask not,”
(James 4:2) not because God is too busy doing other things to bother with you.
Do you believe God really is God, and He can hear it all at the same time? He can answer it all at
the same time. If everyone on the planet made a demand on His power at the same time, the
lights in heaven wouldn’t even flicker. He’s God. He’s the Almighty. He created the heavens and
the earth, and He is your Healer.
In the midst of Him doing all this and throwing tables and cracking the whip, the blind and the
lame came to Him in the temple, and what did He do? He healed one of them as an example? No,
He healed them.
Them
refers to them that came, and we saw in other scriptures again and again
that they used words like
all
, and
every
, and
as many as
touched
, and the implication is the same.
We are sure it is God’s will for all to be healed today because of the ministry of Jesus. The
ministry of Jesus is a direct revelation of the unchanging will of God for all men, for all time. He
used to heal them all. Thank God He still does. You probably don’t even like the sound of that.
“What do you mean
used to
?” Is He the same yesterday, today, and forever? Well, if He used to
heal them all, He still heals them all because it’s the will of God, and we’re going to believe that
no matter what we see, no matter what we hear, no matter what we feel, no matter what we
personally do or don’t experience, the Bible is right. It is the will of God.
