Each day this month I have been reading a chapter of Luke so that by Christmas I've read the whole chapter. It tells the story of Jesus from his birth....
I love how I am reading it with fresh eyes and seeing things I haven't seen before..... such is the miracle of the word of God!
One thing in particular that has stood out is that once Jesus started his ministry, healing took place everywhere! And when Jesus sent out his disciples to preach the gospel, He also commanded them to 'heal the sick'.
I don't know about you but this has really blessed me! Its given me a sense of freedom to pray for healing and ask people if they would like me to pray for them if they are sick.
Healing should be a natural occurence every day. It goes hand in hand with sharing the gospel. Jesus healed the sick all the time while he was on earth and commanded his disciples to do the same.
So if you are a disciple of Jesus, if you follow Him and shine a light for Him in this world, don't be afraid to ask those you know who are sick "Can I pray for you"?
Be blessed
