SPIRITUAL LAWS
There are three different types of laws (as an example); 1. Man-made laws (murder, theft, assault,) 2. Natural laws (electricity, gravity, aerodynamics) 3. Spiritual laws (salvation, prosperity, healing) These laws can work for you or they can work against you. The Kingdom of God is operated by spiritual laws. I noticed something very interesting in three different scriptures while studying about healing. Mark 5:25-34 The woman with an issue of blood; ■ Vs.27 “She came in the press (a lot of people) ■ Vs.31 “Thou seest the multitude (a lot of people) thronging thee.” ■ Vs.34 Jesus; “Daughter, thy faith has made thee whole.” With all the press-multitude of people that wanted to be healed just as bad as she did, why is it that she was the only one recorded to be healed? Mark 10:46-52 Blind Bartimaeus; ■ Vs.46 “A great number of people…sat by the highway begging, he began to cry out; Jesus thou son of David, have mercy on me.” ■ Vs.52 “Jesus said unto him, go thy way; thy faith has made thee whole.” Once again, we see “a great number of people,” that wanted to be healed just as badly as Blind Bartimaeus, why is it that he was the only one recorded to receive his healing? John 5:1-9 The lame man at the pool of Bethesda ■ Vs.3 “In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk.” ■ Vs.6 “Jesus said to him, wilt thou be made whole?” ■ Vs.8 “Jesus said unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.” ■ Vs.9 “And immediately the man was made whole.” Here we also see “a great multitude of people” that they all wanted to be healed just as badly as the lame man, but here too he was the only one recorded to have been healed. These odds also mirror the modern-day Church today. Everybody wants to be healed, but few are. The woman with the issue of blood spoke; “If I may but touch His clothes, I shall be whole.” Blind Bartimaeus “thy faith has made thee whole.” The lame man wouldn’t give up. All three had activated a “Spiritual Law” and were “Immediately healed.” Another important note: they were not just healed, “they were all made whole!” Matt.13:58 “He did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.” Unbelief has stopped many of God’s people from their healing, prosperity and even salvation. Until next time, keep your face in the wind and your kickstand up. To be found faithful, Pastor Ron
