The online KPPI (Praise and Divine Healing Service) was held again on Monday, August 3, 2020 through the Live Streaming program on Facebook and You Tube.
The Word of God was delivered by Rev. Jacob B. Sumbayak, taken from Luke 4: 38-41 about Jesus healing Simon Peter’s mother-in-law and other people.
Jesus Rebuked Fever and Simon’s Mother-in-Law Got Healed Instantly
If we imagine the condition of a person who has a high fever, of course the body will feel weak and uncomfortable. Many other symptoms usually follow such as feeling cold, suffering painful joints, losing appetite, that cause weakness. And that was the condition felt by Simon Peter’s mother-in-law, so they asked Jesus to heal her.
Then Jesus stood over Simon’s mother-in-law and in a loud voice rebuked the fever, and the disease left her instantly. As soon as the woman got healed, she got up immediately and served them. It was a miraculous incident when suffering from a high fever and was very weak because of the illness, immediately she regained strength after being healed by the Lord Jesus, then she got up and served them. Miracles had occurred. No disease could stand when Jesus rebuked the disease.
This incident caused many people to come and all those who had any that were sick with various diseases brought them to Jesus. And He laid his hands on every one of them, and healed them. The house was filled with sick people and many demons came out of the sick people, when Jesus healed the sick in the house.
Miracles happened. Jesus laid his hands on the sick and they were healed, and all the demons came out of them who were possessed. Satan is very afraid of Jesus because Satan knows who Jesus is. Jesus is the Messiah and the Son of God. If we have Jesus in our hearts, the devil will not have any courage to be in us because Jesus is so powerful and all demons are afraid of His Name.
Jesus Is the Powerful Messiah Who Forgives and Saves Mankind
Jesus is the Messiah and the Son of God. It is said that He is the Son of God because He is God Himself who was willing to come down to earth and was born as a human being. He was willing to become a human being to save us, because we all have all sinned and no one can redeem our sins. It is impossible for us to redeem each other because we are all sinners.
Therefore Jesus had to come into the world and was born as a human being so that He could redeem our sins. All through His life Jesus lived in holiness and never sinned, so He deserved to be the sacrifice to redeem our sins.
Jesus paid the price of our sins with His own life because Jesus loves us so much. God knows well that we humans are helpless and always under the bondage of sin, therefore He had to come Himself. And when He comes, He is called the Son of God and the Messiah which means the Savior, who forgives our sins, who redeemed our sins.
That is why Jesus is so powerful. Even the devils are afraid of Him, all diseases can be healed by Him. He also could raise the dead. He could make five loaves of bread and two fish to feed five thousand people and more. He could stop the storm in only two words, because He is very powerful indeed. But He willingly gave Himself because of His love to us and died on the cross.
John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”
Whoever believes in Jesus, he will not perish and will not be condemned to hell because his sins have been redeemed and forgiven. Whoever believes will be saved and gain eternal life. There is one guarantee of salvation and the payment is very clear which is the sacrifice of the Lord Jesus on the cross for us.
If we believe in Him then the devil can no longer take control of our lives and has no right to live in us. Therefore, if we want to be free from our sins, or we want to get rid of the bonds of the devil, or we want to get rid of all the covenants with the devil, accept Jesus and He will release and forgive us.
There is another good news that is from John 1:12, “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:
Believe in Jesus today, tomorrow, and continue to live in that faith, until He comes or the time we leave this world.
By His Stripes You Are Healed
The Word of God in 1 Peter 2:24, “who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed.”
Jesus bore our sins and redeemed us. We used to live in sin but now we live in righteousness. Besides, there is a guarantee that by the wounds of Jesus then all our sicknesses have been healed. The Word of God is the truth and ‘Amen’.
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. (Hebrews 13: 8).
Just like Simon’s mother-in-law who was instantly healed by Jesus, even today He remains the same, He is willing to heal all diseases, no matter it is mild or severe disease. Lay your hands on the place where you feel pain and by the stripes of Jesus, we are healed. [roy/han/lyd]
