Identify the REAL Enemy
“But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: But out of them all the Lord delivered...
All Healed Who Touched Jesus
And all the people were trying to touch Him, for power was coming from Him and healing them all. (Luke 6:19 NASB) It would take a certain level of trust to be in that crowd that day and also to be one that reached out and touched Jesus. Can we trust Him like that...
Who Is Qualified To Lay Hands on the Sick?
…They shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. (Mark 16:18) We’ve looked at this scripture before in explaining that not all healings are instantaneous. Now let’s look at the previous verse, Mark 16:17. “And these signs shall...

With Long Life
“The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years” (Ps. 90:10). “With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation” (Ps. 91:16). If Jesus tarries His coming, I don’t...

Overtaken – For Better or Worse
“And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: And all these...
