Sweet Restoration

Healing, sweet restoration, it can happen. It does happen. No matter how difficult things get, no matter how deep we go in our valley - healing is always an available. Peter says so.

In Acts 3 we read of Peter healing a lame man who, day after day from birth, had to be carried to one of the temple gates to beg for money and any kind of help he could he get. The coolest thing was that Peter looked at him, got his complete attention, and gave him not what he was asking for, but what Peter had to give him - healing!

Then Peter turned to the crowd and told them that this man's healing was possible through the powerful name of Christ and through the power of the faith that comes through Christ.

What about my healing? Your healing?

Peter says that in the name of Jesus and faith that comes through Him, God makes complete restoration possible. It takes faith, but it takes faith in Christ. When both are present healing does take place. But our fiath must be totally in Christ - no wavering - nothing else. Our fatih cannot be obstructed or misplaced - as in ourselves, our abilities, or someone else - otherwise we will not expererience true, unabated healing.

Now remember, healing doesn't always come in the form we think or wish. And it definitely doesn't happen when we always want it to.

Regardless. . .healing from the hurts and pains of the valley can and will take place. . .when our faith is in and through the powerful name of Jesus Christ.

Where's your faith?
