Subject: Knocked out by holy spirit |
Bible Note: Spiritial and physical healing has happened to me as well as I have been involved with many prayer meetings where we have laid on hands and prayed over many needs. I have been very much in tune with the Holy Spirit and the power of prayer and healing. I still believe that puting on a show and useing God's power to heal as a draw to get people to show up is not what Jesus taught us in God's word. First and foremost it is about recieving Jesus into your life and asking for forgivness of your sins. Thats the greatest gift you can ever recieve. While I do beleve that you can be healed from many physical problems, that sould never be your first focus, it should always be first building a relationship with Jesus so that when the day of judgement comes you know that you will be home with Jesus and any and all physical problems will be gone. I believe that the faith healers put the focus on being healed and not on a relationship with Jesus and that is not what Jesus taught us in God's word. When ever Jesus healed someone he first forgave them of there sins (Matt 9 1-8), and also checked to see where their faith was. Jesus also would tell them to not tell anyone of this because he did not people think that he was only a mircle worker. Jesus first wanted to bring all people into a loving relationship with God. (Matt 9 27-34. So I don't think that putting on theatrics just to get people to show up is right or is supported but the word of God. |
