There are larger debts and much more serious debts than financial debts due to the irresponsible use of Credit Cards. Would you like your debt situation to be healed?
When I read about the staggering and staggering amounts of money that individuals and families owe these days, it amazes me.
Many years ago, our English teacher at Perth Academy taught us and told us never to go into debt. I didn’t know what he was referring to at the time, but now I know, I remember and I’m thankful.
This is the consequence of a much deeper and fundamental need in our lives and that is basically what I seek to share with you in this article.
Jesus Christ did much more than divide our calendar into BC and AD
Through the cross and resurrection, Jesus offers total forgiveness for everything I’ve ever done wrong, freely, instantly, and completely. That’s good news.
If someone paid off all of your credit card debt, freely, instantly, and in full, how would you react?
God dropped the charges against us and canceled the record of all the times we have disobeyed God’s commandments. Jesus took our guilt into his own body and nailed it to the cross. For many of us, that can be quite a long list.
We are also offered the healing power of Jesus.
The deepest wounds in our lives are not always physical. Normally we can see these.
Jesus personally took on our sins in His body on the cross so that we could die to the clutches of sin in our lives and be free to live the right way.
Sin is a word rarely mentioned these days in ‘polite company’, whatever ‘polite company’ is.
Jesus Christ died to forgive us and save us, but he also died to heal us.
Jesus ministered in towns and villages, teaching in Jewish synagogues, preaching the good news of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and illness.
He had compassion when he saw the people harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.
No special conditions were needed for God to work through Jesus. Dr. Luke tells us that even when the Pharisees and other critics were sitting around Jesus, the Lord’s power was present for Him to heal the sick.
He went about healing and repairing broken bodies; people who were suffering or sick; Say easy.
One person who heard that recently didn’t realize what sickly, and therefore sick, really meant. He found it most useful.
Jesus is healing the sick, coming from healing the sick, or on his way to meet someone who needs his healing power.
There are several areas in our lives that need the healing touch of the risen and living Lord Jesus Christ.
