Pastor Vlad stated a new series on healing. This series will talk about how it's the will of God to heal and how we should treat those who are sick and how to approach Jesus as our healer. Sermon Notes: Medicine treats. Jesus heals. Healing is mentioned 138 times. It was 1/5 of gospel Divine health was God’s goal. Divine healing is a means to that goal. Healing proves God’s value on human body. He created it. Glorify God in it. Indwells in it. Heals it. Resurrects it. Rewards what’s done in the body. It’s His will to heal everyone as it is His will to save everyone. - Nazareth - Mark 6:1-6 vs. - Gennesaret - Mark 6:53-56 1. Nazareth experienced few healings, Gennesaret saw as many as touched Him were made well. Even in place of total unbelief Jesus healed the sick. Same Jesus, different place, people and results. Healing explosion is the work of Jesus but absence of it is the work of religion. 2. Nazareth was offended at Jesus, Gennesaret recognized Jesus. Nazareth was offended because of their history with Jesus. Experiences can lead us to change who God is or if we recognize who he is it can change us. God is fixed. God is what Jesus was! You are not given right to define God but to discover Him. Being offended at what God has not done does not give you an opportunity to be Who He Is Doubt says “I can’t believe, I need more proof”; unbelief says “I wouldn’t believe in spite of evidence.” Doubt is honest; unbelief is stubborn. Doubt is looking for the light; unbelief is content with darkness. You are not given right to define God but to discover Him. How we perceive Jesus will affect what we receive from Jesus. 3. Healing explosion happens when I don’t change God’s will based on my situation. In Nazareth people brought arguments to Jesus, in Gennesaret they brought the sick. Offended people can’t see beyond themselves. Job prayed for friends. Joseph translated dreams. Jesus prayed for healing. Lack of healing explosion is not always due to the fact that the sick people don’t have faith but that healthy lack compassion. It was not about healing, it was about people who were hurting. 4. In Nazareth leaders questioned Jesus about history, in Gennesaret leaders begged Jesus about the hurting. Healing principle: Cry out in the private, take risks in public (Jesus told us to heal the sick, not to pray for the sick). Healing explosion does not always depend on the faith of the sick but on the warfare of the healthy. 5. In Nazareth Jesus touched few sick people, in Gennesaret as many as touched Jesus were healed Create an opportunity for people to touch Jesus vs Jesus only laying hands on the sick #pastorvlad #healing #hungrygen Stay connected with Pastor Vlad Instagram http://www.instagram.com/vladhungrygen Facebook http://www.facebook.com/vladhungrygen Twitter http://www.twitter.com/vladhungrygen Subscribe to his blog: http://www.hungrygen.com/blog Invite Pastor Vlad to speak http://www.hungrygen.com/invite
