How many of us are so focused on our problems that we have forgotten who our God is? The man at the pool of Bethesda had waited for so long to be healed that his problem became a way of life. He had lost all hope, for he had come to conclude that he had no one to help him. He had no hope of ever being healed neither had he the desire to help himself.

(John 5:8)Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed and walk."

Many today are in the same plight. They are waiting for some singular emotion, remarkable impression or celestial vision before believing that God can heal them. They wait I vain and watch for nothing. Such men have forgotten that Jesus while hanging on the cross said, "It is finished." He had come and laid down His life that we may have abundant life. He now bids us look unto Him and be saved from our sins and healed of our diseases.

The bible in 1 Peter 2:2b confirms that by the stripes Jesus received, we are already healed. It is left for us to appropriate this gift to our situation, circumstances, and accept our healed and break through by faith.

One thing our God cannot and will never do is tell lies. IF Jesus could resurrect after three days and put death to shame, if He could call Lazarus out of the grave after four days; then He is well able to honour His promises and stand by the covenants He has made with those He has bought with His precious blood.

Mark 11:24 reads, "Therefore I say unto you what things so ever you desire, when you pray believe that you receive them and you shall have them."

Beloved, rise up and claim that which you have asked of Him.

God Bless You!
