HEAL - God's Heart for Healing in Luke

GIORNO 25 DI 27

“It’s Not About My Ability”

The enemy tries to make us think that we can’t, or shouldn’t, be healed, restored, or redeemed because we don’t deserve to be. He wants us to focus on our behavior, our performance, our frailties, and our faults. But Jesus’ power and desire to heal, restore, and redeem are NOT based upon OUR abilities or performance at all! Instead, healing, restoration and redemption are all gifts which come from Jesus, based upon His abilities and His Word!  

In today’s passage, Peter plainly denies that he even knew Jesus, not just once, but three times within a short span of time. Peter had been an eye witness to incredible miracles of Jesus, had experienced many hours of sitting under Jesus’ teachings, and had unequivocally promised never-ending devotion to Jesus earlier in the same day. Yet Peter crumbled under the weight of his current circumstances. If Jesus wanted to teach us that our behavior determined whether we could be made whole, He could sure have used Peter for that lesson. To the contrary, we know that Peter was restored, redeemed, and even made to be the rock upon which Jesus built His church.

The enemy is the one who tries to make us think we don’t have this or that because we don’t deserve it. Demons don’t question Jesus’ abilities; they know His power. So they try to attack our abilities. The truth is that our abilities are not even in the equation. It’s all about the redemptive, healing, and restorative power of the blood of Jesus. He has already done the work; now it’s up to us to believe in what He’s already done for us.

QUESTIONS:

  1. Am I relying too much on my abilities for my healing?
  2. Am I seeking guidance through the scriptures?
  3. Am I taking full advantage of the privileges of living in His Kingdom?
